Your United States eSIM in two questions
Which United States eSIM plan do I need?
Find the trip that sounds like yours and the plan that fits it.
- A three-day city break in New York City: 2 GB for 15 days is a good match for about 2.1 GB of standard use, which covers posting, navigating and playing music.
- A week-long business trip: 5 GB for 30 days matches standard use over seven days, about 4.9 GB in all, including maps and messages.
- A two-week road trip: 10 GB for 30 days suits standard use over 14 days, about 9.8 GB in all, so your maps stay on from one city to the next.
- A trip that takes in Canada: the USA & Canada bundle covers both countries on one eSIM, so you won't need a second one at the border.
Most plans can be topped up, so you can add data if your trip runs longer.

These eSIMs cover the United States and more countries on one plan.
Will my eSIM have signal in the United States?
Your eSIM joins AT&T and Verizon across the United States, with 5G available in many places. Your phone picks between the two by itself, so you can land in New York City or Los Angeles and let it sort the signal for you.
Cities and major highways are well covered. Signal can be patchy in national parks and remote rural areas, so save your maps offline before a road trip into the wild. Daily plans slow to a fair use speed once you've used that day's allowance, so pick your size with care.
How much data do you need in the United States?
Light: maps, messages, email (about 0.25 GB a day). Standard: plus social, music, some video (about 0.7 GB a day). Heavy: plus streaming, video calls, hotspot (about 1.8 GB a day).

- Free Wi-Fi: Many airports, hotels and cafés offer free Wi-Fi, though public networks often ask you to sign up first. Save your eSIM data for the moments you're out and about.
