Questions about Fiji eSIMs
Will my eSIM work on an outer island resort?
Sometimes, and it depends where.
The Mamanucas sit close enough to the main island to pick up a signal in places, while the Yasawas and Taveuni are patchy.
Start with the coverage list on this page.
Is there signal on the boat between the islands?
Once you are out past the first islands it goes, and the crossing can take hours.
Nothing on this page promises a bar on the water.
Download what you need before you board.
Should I just use the resort Wi-Fi?
You can, and it is often slow and sometimes charged by the day.
Data of your own covers the transfers, the markets and the taxi rides, where there is no Wi-Fi at all.
How do people arrange things in Fiji?
Phone calls and WhatsApp, mostly.
Tour operators, drivers and dive shops all answer on WhatsApp, and it runs on mobile data while your usual SIM handles the calls.
How is coverage on the main island?
The coverage list on this page answers for the country, not for Suva, Nadi or Lautoka one at a time.
The interior of Viti Levu and the back roads off the Coral Coast have gaps.
Questions about every Ryvo plan
Will it work on my phone?
Does it come with a phone number?
No.
Ryvo eSIMs are data only.
There's no phone number, and you can't make calls or send texts on the eSIM itself.
Can I keep my usual number?
Yes.
Keep your main SIM on for calls and texts, and set the eSIM as your mobile data line.
Your carrier's roaming rates still apply to calls and texts, so check them before you go.
Can I share my data as a hotspot?
It depends on the plan.
Each plan says whether hotspot is allowed before you pay.
What if I run out of data?
Add data from your order page if your plan can be topped up.
If it can't, buy another plan for the same destination.
What if my eSIM won't connect?
Email us and we'll work through it with you, starting with your phone's mobile data settings.
If we can't get it working, our refund policy explains what happens next.
Before you go
The list on this page names Fiji and the two networks behind your plan.
It goes thin through the Yasawas and over on Taveuni, which is the terrain rather than the plan.
Resort Wi-Fi is common and often crawls in the evening when every guest is online at once.
Your own data is the quieter option for a call home.
There is no rideshare app worth the name, so taxis are arranged at the desk or waved down, and a saved phone number beats hunting for an app.
Keep your usual SIM switched on for calls and texts, and choose the eSIM for mobile data.
