What is an eSIM?
An eSIM is a digital SIM card that is built into your device and used to connect to cellular networks globally, eliminating the need for a physical SIM card.
What are the benefits of using an eSIM in Turkey?
Convenience
One of the biggest advantages of using an eSIM for traveling is the convenience it provides. With a traditional SIM card, you have to purchase and change it every time you enter a new country. Finding a shop that sells physical SIM cards at the airport in Turkey is time-consuming and means having to carry around multiple SIM cards.
Security and Reliability
eSIMs offer the same level of security and reliability as traditional SIM cards, using the same encryption technology to protect your data and ensure a stable connection.
Staying connected
One of the most useful benefits of using a Travel eSIM is that you can stay connected wherever you are in the world with full service plans that offer voice, data and SMS.
