El Salvador eSIM — frequently asked questions
Everything travelers ask before buying a El Salvador data plan.
How do I activate my El Salvador eSIM?
After purchase you'll receive a QR code by email. Scan it from your phone's cellular settings to install the El Salvador eSIM. Install over a reliable internet connection, then follow the activation instructions supplied with your plan.
Does my phone support eSIM in El Salvador?
Your phone must support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked. Support varies by exact model and the country where the phone was sold, so check your model and regional variant in our compatibility checker before buying.
Can I keep my regular phone number?
Yes. The Wanderly El Salvador eSIM runs as a secondary line alongside your primary SIM, so you keep calls and texts on your home number while using mobile data from the eSIM. Your home carrier may still charge for calls and texts abroad; disable data roaming and automatic data switching on the home line.
Do El Salvador eSIM plans include calls and texts?
Not for El Salvador yet — the plans here are data-only, so keep your home SIM active for calls and texts, or use WhatsApp, FaceTime and other apps over the eSIM's data. We do sell plans that include a phone number for many other destinations.
How much does a El Salvador eSIM cost?
El Salvador eSIM plans start from $4.99 on Wanderly, depending on the selected data allowance and duration. Check the available plans above for the current total price and coverage.
When does my El Salvador eSIM start?
Most plans begin when the eSIM first connects to a supported network in El Salvador or the covered region. Activation rules can vary, so check the instructions for your selected plan before installing or turning it on.
