Does an eSIM work in Ecuador?
Yes. This eSIM runs on Claro. Coverage is strong in the cities and along the Pacific coast, and thinner in the high Andes and the Amazon interior to the east, and it covers Guayaquil, Quito, Cuenca, Santo Domingo and Duran. It can thin out only in very remote areas.
How much data do I need in Ecuador?
Most travelers use around 1GB a day in Ecuador across maps and messaging. A week is comfortable on 5GB. Longer trips that cross Quito, the coast and the Andes lean to 10GB or unlimited daily. Signal tends to follow the main roads, so expect gaps on remote mountain and jungle stretches.
Is the Ecuador eSIM unlimited?
Our daily plans give you unlimited data at full speed each day. If you prefer a fixed amount, choose a prepaid plan from the 1GB to 20GB, or unlimited daily range above.
Will the Ecuador eSIM work on my phone?
Yes, on any eSIM-compatible unlocked device, including iPhone XS and later, Google Pixel 3 and later, and recent Samsung Galaxy models. It installs alongside your normal SIM, so nothing is removed.
When should I install my Ecuador eSIM?
Install it before you fly, ideally the night before. Activation uses no data, so you are online the moment you land in Ecuador.
Can I keep my number and use WhatsApp?
Yes. The Ecuador eSIM adds data only, so your regular SIM keeps your number for calls and texts. Apps like WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger work over the eSIM.
What happens when I use up the daily full-speed data?
On unlimited daily plans you are never cut off. After each day's full-speed allowance, data continues unlimited at a reduced speed until the day resets, enough for messages, email and maps anywhere in Ecuador.
Can I hotspot to my laptop or travel partner?
Yes. Tethering works on our plans, so you can share the connection with a laptop or a travel partner in Ecuador. Heavy hotspot use counts toward your daily full-speed data.
Is it too early to buy my Ecuador eSIM?
It is never too early. Validity starts on your first connection in Ecuador, not at purchase. Buy today, install whenever you like, and the plan sits ready until you land.
What if the eSIM does not work on my phone?
You are covered. Check the compatibility notes before buying, and if your eSIM will not connect and we cannot fix it, you get a full refund. Refunds are available any time until the eSIM is installed.
