Each Checkout link opens payment with that plan selected: only the email address and payment remain.

## How it works

1. Choose a plan and pay on the product page (card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal or crypto).
2. The eSIM QR code arrives by email; install it before you travel (Settings > Mobile/Cellular > Add eSIM).
3. On arrival, select the eSIM for mobile data and turn on data roaming for it. Your own SIM stays in the phone for calls and SMS.

Data-only: the eSIM has no phone number. Requires an eSIM-compatible, carrier-unlocked phone.

## Your eSIM for Zanzibar, ready when you land

Roaming to Tanzania is usually pricey, so a travel eSIM is the easy way to stay connected on Zanzibar - Stone Town and the beach resorts of Nungwi, Kendwa and Paje. Install it before you fly and you land already online.

## Getting online at Zanzibar airport (ZNZ)

The eSIM connects when you switch off airplane mode at Zanzibar (ZNZ). Your resort transfer and maps are ready before you reach the taxi - a relief after a long-haul arrival.

## Coverage in Stone Town and the beach resorts

Tanzania's networks (Vodacom, Airtel and Tigo) cover Stone Town and the main resort strips with 4G, which is fine for maps, messaging and sharing photos. Signal can be weaker at the quieter northern and eastern beaches and on boat trips, so download offline maps before excursions.

## FAQ

### Is there coverage at the beach resorts?

Yes - Stone Town and the main resort areas like Nungwi and Paje have 4G. Quieter beaches and boat trips can be weaker, so save offline maps.

### Why not use roaming in Tanzania?

Standard roaming to Tanzania is typically expensive. A prepaid travel eSIM keeps your costs predictable.
