No. An eSIM can be installed only once, and it locks to the first device it is installed on. It cannot be moved to another phone, re-scanned, or reinstalled afterward, and it is non-refundable once installed. Please install your eSIM on the device you plan to keep using. If you are switching devices and need help, contact our support team.

This specific eSIMAdventures plan is exclusively for use within El Salvador. While many adventurers explore Central America's 'Gringo Trail,' our single-country plan will not provide coverage beyond El Salvador’s borders. If your journey takes you from Antigua, Guatemala, or across into Honduras or Nicaragua, your connection will cease. For multi-country expeditions, we highly recommend exploring our regional Central America eSIMAdventures plans, designed to keep you connected across multiple destinations without interruption, ensuring seamless navigation and communication.
