Good to know before you go.

Keep your own number
The eSIM is added as an extra line. Your existing number keeps working for calls and SMS.
All you need is your phone
The QR code arrives by email right after purchase. iPhone and Android add the eSIM directly from Settings — no extra screen or PC needed.
Turn off roaming on your main line
Settings → Cellular/Mobile data → your main line → turn off “Data roaming” to avoid a double bill.
FAQ · Uganda

Answers to the questions people ask.

Do I need to do anything special for Uganda?

No. You install the eSIM the usual way. Your phone connects to a local network automatically when you land.

How long does activation take?

You get the QR code by email immediately. Activation itself takes 1-2 minutes once you're on a local network.

Does the eSIM work outside the biggest cities in Uganda?

Yes. We use a partner with nationwide roaming agreements. 4G/5G where available; speed depends on the local network.

What if I run out of data?

We send an alert at 80% usage. You can buy a top-up without installing a new eSIM.
