A plan's clock, from buying it to the day it startsThree marks on one line. Buy and Install both show a stopped clock, because buying and installing do not start a plan on their own. First connect is ringed, the clock starts running and the plan's first day begins there, and the plan runs for the days it lists from that point. Depending on the plan it starts when you install the eSIM, when it first connects at your destination, or when you buy it. If you're not sure when yours starts, email us before you install.BuyClock stoppedInstallStill stoppedFirst connectDay 1
Most plans start on first connection. Your plan page says.

How it works

  • The phone checker, with a model typed in and a yes backThis site's own phone checker, drawn. A phone model is typed into the Phone model field, and under the Check my phone button the answer says the phone supports eSIM, ticked and marked Supports eSIM. The checker answers from one list of phones, checked against each manufacturer's own page, and it never guesses: a phone that is not on the list gets told so. Your phone also needs to be unlocked.Phone modeliPhone 15 ProCheck my phoneSupports eSIMYes, the iPhone 15 Prosupports eSIM.

  • The Mobile data screen at home, with the new line listed and roaming offA phone's Mobile data screen with two lines on it. Main, your home carrier, is still ticked for mobile data. The new line, labelled Travel, is the Ryvo eSIM, newly listed under it. Data roaming is off, so nothing has connected and the plan's clock is stopped. Beside the phone, a Wi-Fi symbol: install over Wi-Fi or your home data, any time after you buy, and give the line a label like Travel so you can tell your lines apart.9:41Mobile dataMainHome carrierTravelRyvo eSIMData roamingOFFAt homeNot started

Travel, the Ryvo eSIM, is now ticked for mobile data, and Data roaming is on for it. Beside the phone, signal bars and a running clock: the eSIM has connected to a partner network, and on a plan that starts on first connection that is where its first day begins. Your own plan page says when yours starts.9:41Mobile dataMainHome carrierTravelRyvo eSIMData roamingONConnectedDay 1

Do I need an eSIM in Panama?

The plan is a canal transit on somebody else's boat with city days either side, and that is a trip made of other people's timings.

Crew lists, departure times and a berth all arrive by message, often late and often changed.

Buying the data plan at home means the hours before you board go on packing rather than queueing.

Local plan or World eSIM?

Country list to be confirmed

World eSIM

One country, or one eSIM for the whole trip.

Here the World plan costs less than the local plan.

Questions about Panama eSIMs

  • Will there be signal out on the water?

    Nothing on this page promises a bar offshore.

  • Is one plan enough for the city and the transit?

    There is nothing to swap between the two halves of the trip.

  • How will the boat get hold of me?

    By message, and often at short notice.

  • What should be on the phone before I go aboard?

    The dock, the boat name and the hour you were given, plus a map you can open with nothing switched on.
