Choose a Singapore eSIM for your itinerary

A stopover or short stay

Compare a fixed-data plan's full price and validity with your arrival and departure dates. Check activation before installing: some plans start on installation, while others wait for the first network connection. A low price per GB is useful only if you need that much data.

Singapore and Malaysia

A Singapore-only plan should not be assumed to work across the border in Johor Bahru or elsewhere in Malaysia. Compare separate country plans with a regional bundle explicitly listing both countries, including its expiry and activation rule.

Work or a shared connection

Check hotspot support and top-up availability on the exact plan before relying on it for a laptop. For a daily pass, compare your expected working-day usage with the high-speed allowance and reduced-speed tier; unlimited data does not mean unlimited high-speed data.

Open the current plan's details before buying: check validity, activation timing, coverage, hotspot rules and any fair-use limits. Calls and texts are included only when stated for that plan.

Singapore eSIM — frequently asked questions

Everything travelers ask before buying a Singapore data plan.

How do I activate my Singapore eSIM?

After purchase you'll receive a QR code by email. Scan it from your phone's cellular settings to install the eSIM. Install over a reliable internet connection, then follow the activation instructions supplied with your plan.

Does my phone support eSIM in Singapore?

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 eSIM runs as a second line alongside your physical SIM card, so your home number stays on the phone for calls and texts while mobile data comes from the eSIM. Your home carrier may still apply roaming charges to calls and texts; disable data roaming and automatic data switching on the home line.

Do plans for Singapore include calls and texts?

Some do. The "Calls & texts" tab above lists plans that include a phone number, calling and usually SMS alongside the data; the rest of our plans are data-only. The number is assigned after purchase and may be issued in a different country than Singapore, so we cannot promise a local number.

How much does an eSIM for Singapore cost?

Plans start from $2.99 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 plan start?

Most plans begin when the eSIM first connects to a supported network in Singapore or the covered region. Activation rules can vary, so check the instructions for your selected plan before installing or turning it on.
