In addition to the new Apple phones and wearables like smart watches, we are beginning to see more phones with an eSIM inside them. It is, for this reason, that the vast majority of operators are putting the batteries to have this type of virtual card. Currently, in Spain the only telecos that offer it are Orange, Vodafone or Movistar (only for iPhones). The last to jump on the bandwagon has been Pepephone, who announces on its official blog the possibility that its customers can now choose whether they want a physical card or a virtual one.
If you are already a Pepephone customer you can request a duplicate of eSIM completely free. New customers will be able to select this alternative when hiring a rate. Of course, first it is necessary that the terminal is compatible with this type of card. If you have an iPhone Xr, Xs, Xs Max, Google Pixel 2 or Google Pixel 3 you can benefit from it. However, more and more teams are joining.
And what are the benefits of having an eSIM? Its great advantage is that it is possible to associate different lines contracted with our operator on mobile tablets and connected objects, so that we do not have to insert a SIM card every time we want to use one of the lines on another device. Another advantage of the eSIM is that it is allowing manufacturers to eliminate the SIM card slot, stylizing and making the design of the terminals more beautiful.
Therefore, to request a Pepephone eSIM you have two options:
- If you are already a customer, you just have to contact the operator (1212) and request a duplicate card to be able to use it on compatible devices. It is completely free.
- If you are not a customer, but you want to become a Pepephone and use an eSIM, you will need to hire a rate. To do this, you can call the free customer service number 900 494 286.
