United States eSIM coverage and networks

Partner networks and top speeds in the USA. Actual speed depends on the signal where you are.

Coverage is nationwide, including Hawaii and Puerto Rico, but limited in Alaska.

Reception is best in cities. In remote areas such as mountains, isolated beaches or the countryside, the signal may be weak or unstable.

How to activate the United States eSIM

  1. 1

    Choose and buy

  2. 2

    Install before you travel

    Connect to Wi-Fi and scan the QR code. Installing doesn't use up any days: the validity period only starts when the eSIM connects to a network at your destination.

    Turn on the eSIM, enable data roaming for it and select it for mobile data. Keep roaming off on your primary SIM.

Chat on WhatsApp
What is the best eSIM for the USA?

For a week in the USA with maps, messages and email, the 1 GB plan for 7 days (£3.49) is usually enough. With social media and video, expect to use 3 to 5 GB per week: the 5 GB plan for 30 days costs £8.39. For heavy use or work, unlimited plans start at £10.79 for 3 days. If you need to make calls or receive texts, there are plans with a phone number from £4.79.

Which networks does the United States eSIM use?

The United States eSIM works on the T-Mobile and Verizon networks, with up to 5G speeds where available. The 10 GB plan for 365 days uses only the T-Mobile network.

Does the United States eSIM work in New York, Miami, Orlando and Las Vegas?

Yes. The eSIM works on the T-Mobile and Verizon networks, with up to 5G speeds where available. Coverage is nationwide, including Hawaii and Puerto Rico, but limited in Alaska.

Does the United States eSIM come with a phone number?

Yes. Choose “Data, calls & texts” and you get a phone number, 10 to 500 minutes and SMS, depending on the plan. On data-only plans, WhatsApp stays on your usual number.

Incoming calls also count against your minutes. You can't make international calls.

How much data do I need for 15 days in the USA?

With maps, messages and email, expect to use about 1 GB per week: the 2 GB plan for 15 days costs £4.49. With social media and video, it's more like 3 to 5 GB per week: the 10 GB plan for 30 days costs £13.79. If you'd rather not track your usage, 15 days of unlimited data costs £35.09.

eSIM, local SIM or roaming: which is best for the USA?

An eSIM does the job of a local SIM card, but you install it before you fly, with nothing to pick up and no need to remove your primary SIM. For the USA, plans start at £3.49, and 30 days of unlimited data costs £62.89 (£2.10 per day). With roaming, you pay whatever your network charges; with the eSIM, you know the price before you travel.

Can I top up without switching eSIMs?

On most plans, yes: you top up the same eSIM from your account or the Wavee app, with no new QR code and nothing to install. The top-up screen shows the plans that work with your eSIM.

Can I use my phone as a hotspot?

Usually yes, but it depends on the plan and the local network. If it matters for your trip, talk to us before you buy.

What if I can't use the eSIM?

You have up to 30 days to request a refund in eligible cases: a cancelled trip, an incompatible or locked phone, or an eSIM that doesn't connect. We review every request, and our support team will first try to fix the problem with you on WhatsApp or by email.
