Best 5 GB eSIM for Balkans 🌍

Track your data usage in two easy ways:

• Through your online WonderConnect account
• Via the WonderConnect app

Both options display a clear data usage bar showing how much data you have remaining in both percentage and gigabytes.

We'll keep you informed with automatic SMS messages when you reach 50% and 20% of your data allowance. For even better tracking, install our app and enable push notifications to monitor your usage on the go.

No, the WonderConnect travel eSIM is for data only and doesn't include a phone number. However, you can use your mobile internet connection for video calls and messaging apps.

Using a regional eSIM is better than relying on public Wi-Fi for several key reasons:

• With a regional eSIM, you get consistent and reliable mobile internet access across the entire covered area. You don't have to hunt for free WiFi hotspots in restaurants, hotels, or other public places. The eSIM ensures you stay connected on the go.

• Public WiFi networks can be unsecured and expose your data to potential security risks. In contrast, a regional eSIM provides a secure mobile internet connection, protecting your sensitive information and online activities.

• Traveling with a regional eSIM is highly convenient. Your phone automatically switches between mobile networks as you cross borders. The eSIM gives you full independence to use your apps and stay online whenever you need to, without interruptions. Use navigation, translation tools, buy tickets online, or share moments with friends whenever you want.

The difference between a regional eSIM and a single-country eSIM is the coverage area.

• A single-country eSIM only provides mobile internet access within the borders of one specific country. For example, if you buy an eSIM for France, you will only be able to use that eSIM's mobile data plan within France.

• In contrast, a regional eSIM provides mobile internet access across multiple countries within a given region. For example, if you buy a Europe eSIM, you will have mobile internet coverage in France, Germany, Portugal, and all other European countries included in that regional eSIM plan.

You can check the exact countries and regions covered by a particular eSIM in the details section.

Absolutely. Buying a regional eSIM makes sense even if you only plan to visit 2 countries within that region. Here's why:

• You only need to install and activate the eSIM once.
• You don't have to remember to switch between eSIMs as you cross borders. With a regional plan, your internet access stays uninterrupted as you travel within the region. Whereas with 2 separate single-country eSIMs, you'd need to manually change your device settings and select the correct line for mobile data.
• The regional eSIM provides more flexibility. If you have an unexpected opportunity to take a quick trip to a neighboring country, you can simply go where your travels take you without worrying about connectivity or extra costs.

So the convenience, flexibility, and potential cost savings make a regional eSIM the better choice, even if your initial travel plans are limited to just 2 countries within that region.

Check our compatibility list to confirm if your device supports eSIM technology, as this can vary based on manufacturing location and model.

Besides eSIM support, your device needs to be carrier-unlocked, which means your current mobile provider allows your phone to connect to other networks. If you're unsure about your phone's unlocked status, simply contact your provider and ask about using digital SIM cards or eSIMs. Once confirmed, you'll be ready to skip high roaming fees and enjoy our Balkans eSIM plans!

After purchasing your eSIM plan, access your account either through our online store or the WonderConnect app. There you'll find all your eSIM details and installation instructions. Follow our step-by-step guide to install the eSIM on your phone in just a few minutes. The best part - you can install before your trip! Get everything ready in advance for seamless connectivity abroad. Remember, installation doesn't start your plan's validity period.

When you reach your destination, turn on your Balkans eSIM and enable data roaming. You'll find clear, illustrated instructions in the WonderConnect app for both iPhone and Android users. After enabling data roaming, your Balkans eSIM will connect to the local network. Start browsing, and we'll confirm your data plan activation with an SMS once we detect data connection.

You can install your eSIM either before your trip or after arriving at your destination. Travel eSIMs are designed to be flexible! If you're planning ahead, feel free to install right after purchase - your plan's validity period won't start until you first connect to a local network abroad.

Already at your destination? No problem! You can purchase and install your eSIM on the spot. The only difference is timing: if you're already abroad, we'll guide you through data activation immediately after installation. If you install before your trip, we'll show you the activation steps when you arrive at your destination.

First, check if your phone is eSIM compatible.

Most eSIM-compatible devices let you use both eSIM and physical SIM card at once. This means you can keep your regular SIM card in your phone while using our eSIM for data. Through your phone settings, you control which SIM is active - for example, keeping your home number on for calls while abroad. Our prepaid eSIM plans provide mobile data only, so you'll continue using your existing phone number just as before.

You can easily get additional data in two ways:

• Through your WonderConnect account online
• Using the WonderConnect mobile app

Simply select and purchase your desired data package. The top-up will activate immediately when:

• Your current data runs out, or
• Your previous plan expires

You can purchase multiple top-ups in advance. These will be queued in your account and activate automatically when needed. All top-ups provide the same internet quality and network coverage as your first data plan.

No. One of the key benefits of using the Balkans eSIM is the ability to seamlessly connect to local networks as you travel between countries, without having to manually swap traditional SIM cards.

If you have a regional eSIM plan, your mobile service should automatically transition to the local network as you cross borders, without any action required on your part. Your device will detect the new network and connect to it, allowing you to stay online without interruption.

Open your phone settings and navigate to cellular/mobile data settings (menu names may vary by device). Turn off the embedded SIM you used for your Balkans travel data plan. Find and select your home country SIM/eSIM, then enable cellular data for this SIM.

Once completed, you'll be back on your home mobile plan.

Our medium data packages (5GB or 10GB) are ideal for most travelers who want to stay connected, use social media, and navigate around Balkans. These plans offer enough data for everyday activities.

For remote work, we recommend our largest data packages to ensure smooth video conferencing and uninterrupted connectivity.

Not sure how much data you need? Start with a smaller plan – you can easily add more data anytime through the WonderConnect app, even while traveling.

A regional travel eSIM functions as a digital alternative to traditional physical cards. Rather than physically swapping plastic SIM cards when crossing borders, your phone will switch between mobile networks.

The key benefit of a regional travel eSIM is that it provides coverage across multiple countries within a geographic area, eliminating the need to buy multiple SIM cards or single-country eSIMs. You can install the regional eSIM before your trip, right from the comfort of your own home. This avoids the hassle of finding and setting up a new local SIM card when you arrive at your destination.

Once you have the regional travel eSIM set up, your device can automatically connect to the appropriate local network as you move between countries within that region. This allows you to avoid roaming charges by using a single prepaid data plan that works across borders. At the same time, you can keep your regular SIM card active to receive calls and messages on your home number.

eSIM prices for Balkans start at $11.50.
