## What is Local?

Travel the world without the high cost of data roaming with a local-eSIM.
Choose the country or region you are visiting and select the local-eSIM that’s best for you, there are hundreds to choose from.
Once you have purchased your local-eSIM, it can be stored in your app to activate on arrival.  If you have multiple local-eSIMs, you can queue them to be used in order required.

WHAT IS A LOCAL-ESIM?

eSIMs are virtual sims that can be embedded in your device to be used instead of a physical sim.  A local-eSIM means you will only pay local data rates worldwide. Each local-eSIM will have a fixed amount of data and a fixed amount of days, weeks or months to use it in.

WHY CHOOSE LOCAL-ESIM?

We pride ourselves on giving clear choices, we will not use tricks to slow down data speeds or offer unlimited bundles with a restricted fair use policy or daily limit.
We offer local-eSIMs from only the best local partners to give you a seamless service.
You can track your usage and get alerts by app, sms or email when data is close to full consumption.
