What is an eSIM?

An eSIM is a pre-installed chip found on many smartphones, laptops and tablets, including most modern iPad models. It allows users to download a data plan directly to their device, and use it to access mobile internet anywhere, just like a smartphone. When you purchase an iPad data plan from BetterRoaming, you will be asked to download a BetterRoaming eSIM to your device. This allows you to access the BetterRoaming mobile network from your tablet.
