Frequently asked questions
Yes, after you install your eSIM, you will need to turn on two settings on most devices in order for your Saily plan to activate automatically — 1) the Saily eSIM itself, and 2) Data roaming.
If you have an iPhone:
Go to “Settings” > “Mobile service” or “Cellular.” Under “SIMs,” select your Saily eSIM and enable “Turn on this line.” You won’t need to enable data roaming.
If you have a Samsung phone:
Go to “Settings” > “Connections” > “SIM manager” and enable your Saily eSIM. Then, go back to “Connections” > “Mobile networks” and enable “Data roaming” for your Saily eSIM.
If you have a Google Pixel phone:
Go to “Settings” > “Network & internet” > “SIMs” and enable your Saily eSIM. Then, under “SIMs,” tap on your Saily eSIM and enable “Roaming.”
If you have any other Android device:
Go to “Settings” > “Mobile networks” or “SIM cards & mobile networks.” Under “SIMs or eSIMs,” enable your Saily eSIM and follow any additional steps if prompted. Then, go back to “Mobile networks” or “SIM cards & mobile networks,” select your Saily eSIM and enable roaming.
Yes, it does! It detects your destination and then automatically activates your eSIM data plan.
Yes, you can keep your own number while using a Saily eSIM plan. If you want to make calls and send SMS messages abroad without worrying about extra carrier fees, you can add a US phone number to your Saily eSIM plan. Additionally, you can still make calls through VoIP apps like Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, and Signal.
Picking the best eSIM for international travel can be tricky, but we think Saily is a great contender! It’s got affordable pricing, extensive global coverage, and a user-friendly, easy-to-use app. You’ll get reliable, fast 4G/5G data in over 200 destinations, and unlimited data plans! You can also buy reliable data plans for entire regions, like a Europe data plan with 35 countries, and even a Global plan covering 110+ destinations!
A tourist eSIM is another name for a travel eSIM — a digital SIM that lets you connect to mobile networks in other countries without a physical SIM card. To start using an eSIM, you’ll need an eSIM plan, which can be data only or data plus calls and texts. You can set up eSIMs with most new smartphones by making a few small changes to your device’s settings.
Yes, the Saily app is totally legit! It’s built by the company behind NordVPN (Nord Security), and offers everything you may need in one app — solid security, easy activation, and an intuitive interface. With data plans in 200+ destinations, Saily is a great pick for travelers (even if we say so ourselves!).
Yes, the Saily eSIM app offers affordable plans, especially compared to big-name providers! That said, if you're just hunting for the absolute cheapest eSIM, you might find lower prices elsewhere.
With Saily, you’re also getting solid quality: 24/7 customer support, quick and easy setup, easy-to-use app, and reliable global coverage. You even get extra security features like malicious site and ad blocking, so it’s more about value than just price!
Yes, Saily works in the United States. Whether you’re looking for an eSIM for the USA or Europe, you’ve come to the right place!
Saily and Airalo are both solid options when it comes to speed and performance. However, if you’re planning to share your data with other devices, Saily’s a bit more convenient. Check out this Saily vs. Airalo comparison to find out more!
Yes, you can definitely get an eSIM for travel! The easiest thing to do is download an eSIM app from the App Store or Google Play and then get your eSIM data plan through the app. Choose a data-only plan if you want to keep your regular phone number active while you’re away.
Saily comes from the word “sail” — we wanted a name that feels like movement, freedom, and exploring the world! Saily is curious, active, brave, inclusive, funny, and always up for something new. If it were a person, it would always be on the move, meeting people, chasing adventures, and staying connected!
Nord Security, a global digital security and privacy brand, owns the Saily eSIM service. It’s also the company behind tools like NordVPN and NordPass, trusted by millions worldwide.
