Does it support eSIM?
Look for an "Add eSIM" or "Add data plan" option in your phone's mobile or cellular settings. If it is there, your phone supports eSIM.

eSIM data
Buy a plan for your destination, install it before you fly, and switch it on when you arrive. No airport queue, and the SIM you already have stays where it is.
Plans and pricing
Every plan is a fixed allowance for a fixed number of days, bought up front. There is no contract and nothing renews on its own.
Search a destination, or filter by plan type. Country plans cover one place, regional plans cover a continent, global plans travel with you.
1431 plans across 203 destinations
Nothing matches that search yet. The app carries the full catalogue — check there for your destination.

The basics
An eSIM is a SIM card built into your phone instead of slotted into it. Rather than collecting a piece of plastic, you install a profile — a download that tells your phone which network to join and what data you have paid for.
Installing
Search where you are going and pick an allowance and a length that matches the trip. Country, regional and global plans all work the same way.
The app walks you through adding the eSIM to your phone. Do it on Wi-Fi before you leave — you will not need a connection once you land.
Turn the plan on in your phone's settings and it connects to a local network. Your usual SIM can stay active for calls and texts.
Before you buy
An eSIM only works on a phone that supports one and is not locked to a single carrier. Both are worth checking before you pay for a plan.
Look for an "Add eSIM" or "Add data plan" option in your phone's mobile or cellular settings. If it is there, your phone supports eSIM.
A phone locked to the network that sold it will refuse a profile from anyone else. Your carrier can tell you, and can usually unlock it.
Each plan lists the local operators it runs on. Coverage is whatever those operators cover in that country — Bella does not build its own network.
Questions
An eSIM is a SIM card built into your phone that you download instead of collect. You buy a data plan, install it, and your phone connects to a local network when you arrive — no plastic SIM, no shop, nothing to lose.
Most phones released in recent years support eSIM, but not all do, and some are locked to a single carrier. Check your phone settings for an eSIM or "add mobile plan" option, and check with your carrier that the device is unlocked, before you buy a plan.
Buy the plan in the app, install it while you still have a connection, then switch it on when you land. Install before you travel — downloading an eSIM needs internet access, which is the thing you are trying to arrange.
Country plans cover a single destination, regional plans cover a group of countries, and global plans suit trips with several stops. Each plan has a data allowance and a validity period, both shown before you buy.
Each plan lists the local operators it runs on, and you see that list before you buy. Coverage is whatever those operators cover in that country — Bella does not build its own network, so the signal you get is theirs.
Yes. An active plan can be topped up from the app without installing a new eSIM, so you keep the same connection.
The plan stops carrying data, and your phone falls back to whatever else it has — your usual SIM, or wifi. Nothing renews on its own and nothing is charged after the fact.
If you are still travelling, top the active plan up from the app or buy another plan.
Yes. The eSIM carries data and your usual SIM stays active for calls and texts on your own number, so nobody has to be told you are away.
Travel data plans are data-only, so they do not come with a number for ordinary calls or texts. Keep your own number active for those, or call through Bella Mobile over the data connection.
Calling credit and eSIM data sit on the same balance, in the same app. Create an account with an email address, or download the app and start there.
