Travel eSIM for mobile operators and MVNOs

Add a travel eSIM to your app for the trips your plans do not cover. The customer keeps the home line in the phone and gets data at the destination.

Short answer: Your plans include roaming in some countries, and the rest is costly or missing. Add a travel eSIM to your app for those trips: the customer picks the destination, pays in your checkout, and installs in a few taps. The home line stays in the phone.

  • A travel plan where your roaming stops
  • Your app and your price
  • The home line stays in the phone
The flow

The trip your plan does not cover, sold in your app.

Four moments of a travel plan in an operator app: the roaming page, the add-on list, the days before departure, and the care team. Pick one to see it.

Answers

Before you choose

Short answers to the common questions. The partner agreement sets the final terms.

Last updated 28 October 2026 · Reviewed by Roamworks
Does it replace our roaming?

No. It covers the countries your plans do not include. Your roaming stays as it is.

Does the customer keep the home number?

Yes. The travel plan is data only and installs next to the home line, on an unlocked phone that supports eSIM.

Who sets the price?

You do. You buy each plan at a partner price and sell it in your app at your price.

Can we offer it under our brand?

A large operator can offer a co-branded eSIM store. It always shows that RoamWorks delivers the plans.
