Best eSIM for Cyprus 🇨🇾

Yes! You can purchase your travel eSIM even after arriving at your destination. The only difference from buying it before your trip is that we'll guide you to activate it immediately, allowing you to connect to a local network right away.

With travel eSIM you decide when to buy it - either before the travels, on the go using WonderConnect app, or after you arrive at your destination.

Your eSIM plan starts when you first connect to mobile data at your destination.
You can install the eSIM anytime - even weeks before your trip. Installation does not start the validity period (unless you bought an eSIM for your home country; or a regional package that includes coverage for your home country. Example: Europe → Germany).

The countdown begins only when your eSIM connects to a mobile network at your destination. For this to happen, your eSIM must be turned on, selected as your mobile data line, and have data roaming enabled.

To use an eSIM, your device needs to be eSIM-compatible and carrier-unlocked. If you find your phone on our compatibility list, it most likely supports eSIM technology. In some cases, eSIM compatibility depends on where your phone model was manufactured. That's why we advise you to check our list before you buy one of our Cyprus eSIM plans.

Carrier-unlocked means your home carrier (your mobile service provider) isn't restricting your phone from connecting to other networks. While carrier locks are becoming less common, if you're unsure, it's best to contact your provider. Just ask if they allow the use of digital SIM cards/eSIMs. If they do, you're free to avoid high roaming costs and enjoy affordable eSIM mobile data!

Setting up your eSIM requires 2 steps: installation and mobile data activation.

Step 1: Install your eSIM

Your eSIM for Cyprus is ready to install immediately after purchase. You can install it anytime - even weeks before your trip. Installation does not start the validity period.

To install, choose one of these methods:
• Scan the QR code we sent you right after purchase
• Use the WonderConnect app with step-by-step installation guide and illustrations

Step 2: Activate mobile data (at your destination)

Once you arrive, complete these 4 steps:
1. In your phone settings, turn on your eSIM
2. Select the Cyprus eSIM as your mobile data line
3. Enable data roaming for your eSIM (required to connect to foreign networks)
4. Turn off WiFi and test the connection by opening any website

Connection usually happens within seconds, but can take up to 10 minutes for your phone to catch the foreign network signal.
If you are using the WonderConnect app, activation instructions are accessible from the home screen.

Yes! Most modern smartphones support dual SIM, which means you can use both your physical SIM card and the WonderConnect eSIM simultaneously.

You install the eSIM and it works alongside your regular SIM card. You don't have to remove it from your phone.

Set the eSIM as your mobile data line. For your regular SIM card, you have two options:

• Turn it off completely to avoid roaming charges for incoming calls
• Keep it on for receiving calls and text messages

Don't worry - turning off your SIM card doesn't delete your number or contacts. You can turn it back on anytime directly from your phone settings

You can top up your Cyprus eSIM using the WonderConnect app or through your web account.

Log in to your account, if you have several eSIMs, select the one you want to top up and choose a top-up package. Finalize payment and that's it.

Your top-up activates automatically when your current plan ends or when you run out of data. You can purchase it anytime - even before you need it. After your eSIM expires or runs out of data, you have 160 days to top up to regain the internet connection on the same eSIM.

The eSIM for Cyprus works exclusively as a single-country plan. This means it only functions within the country's borders since it's designed to connect to local networks.

Planning to visit multiple countries? Consider our regional eSIMs for seamless connectivity across borders. This way, you can stay connected throughout your journey without needing to buy and switch numerous eSIMs. For broader coverage, check out our best eSIM plans for different regions.

You can easily return to your original mobile data settings at any time. That's why eSIMs are a safe and convenient solution for travelers! After your trip, go to the mobile data/network settings and choose your main carrier as the mobile data provider.

eSIM prices for Cyprus start at $5.00.
