Questions about Jamaica eSIMs
Will a plan work up in the hills?
The coverage list on this page names Jamaica and stops at the country, so no hill road, parish or yard is answered on its own.
Expect less of it the further the road climbs away from a town.
How do people tell you where the music is?
By message and by word of mouth, and the message tends to come first.
A venue that changes at the last minute reaches the people whose phones are on, which is a reason to carry data of your own.
Is one plan enough if I move between towns?
Moving about inside Jamaica changes nothing on the handset.
One plan answers for the country the coverage list names, so a room in Kingston and a night at the other end of the island run off the same data.
Can I lean on the guesthouse connection?
Only while you are inside it.
The lift, the venue and the person who moved the time are all out there somewhere, and none of them waits for you to get back to a password.
What should I have on the phone before a late night out?
A number for the ride home, the address you are going back to, and enough charge to use both.
A handset that dies at the end of an evening is the one thing nobody else can fix for you.
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 coverage list on this page names Jamaica and the network behind your plan, and it answers for the country rather than for one parish or one hill road.
A yard at the end of a track is its own question.
Keep the name of the venue and of whoever is meeting you as text on the handset.
A session that moves to another yard tends to be announced once, to whoever is reachable.
A late ride home is easier to arrange while the number is still in front of you.
Ask for it early in the evening rather than at the end of it.
Keep your usual SIM switched on for calls and texts, and choose the eSIM for mobile data.
