Balearic Islands eSIM

Yes — and that's actually the whole point. You purchase your plan online through eSIM Cards, receive the QR code by email, and install it on your phone before you leave home. No airport kiosks, no phone shops, no wasted time.

For most travellers, yes — particularly those coming from outside the EU. UK networks, for example, often charge per-day roaming fees that add up quickly over a week or two.

Yes. All eSIM Cards plans for the Balearic Islands include hotspot tethering. You switch on the mobile hotspot in your phone settings, and other devices can connect and use your data.

Check if that data roaming is enabled in your phone settings — it's the most common reason an eSIM connects to a network but doesn't actually load anything. If roaming is on and it's still not working, try toggling aeroplane mode off and on to force the phone to reconnect.

It depends on the carrier. The QR code in your original confirmation email may still be used for reinstallation, but some carriers only allow it to be scanned once. If you’re unlucky enough to delete your eSIM profile by mistake, best to reach out to eSIM Cards support before trying to reinstall.

For data, absolutely. The eSIM handles everything data-related without any issues. What it doesn't do is replace your phone number for traditional calls and texts.

This is almost always a data roaming issue. Go into your phone's mobile data settings and make sure roaming is turned on for the eSIM line specifically — some phones let you toggle it per SIM.

Yes — that's one of the main advantages. The eSIM and your physical SIM run side by side on the same phone. Your regular SIM card stays in place and keeps handling calls and texts from your home number.

Yes. eSIM support is available across a wide range of devices on both platforms. If you're not sure whether your specific phone is compatible, a quick check in your settings under mobile or SIM management will confirm it.

Not in any meaningful way. Running two SIM profiles simultaneously uses a tiny amount of additional power — negligible compared to things like screen brightness, GPS, or streaming video.
