SIMPal is an eSIM marketplace that connects travellers with local mobile data plans in over 200 countries. No roaming charges, no SIM card hunting — just tap, buy, and connect.

Step 1: Find Your Plan

Open the SIMPal app and search by country or region. You'll see a curated list of local data plans from network providers in that destination — sorted by price, data allowance, and validity period (1–30 days).

Plans show you exactly what you get: data amount, call/SMS inclusion, network provider, and price. No surprises.

Step 2: Buy in One Tap

Select the plan that fits your trip. Payment is handled securely in-app — no need to share card details with individual carriers. SIMPal handles the transaction and provisions the eSIM profile instantly.

Step 3: Activate and Connect

You'll receive a QR code or direct activation link. On iPhone, go to Settings → Mobile Data → Add eSIM and scan the code. On Android, the path is similar under Settings → Network → SIM cards. Your plan activates immediately — usually within 30 seconds.
