Questions about Jordan eSIMs
Do my parents need a plan each as well?
Only if they intend to use their phones.
A plan belongs to the handset it was added to, so one on yours does nothing for theirs, and a party that depends on a single screen depends on a single battery.
What do I put on the phone before we set out for the day?
The tickets, the map, the hotel address and the name of whoever booked the car.
All four are the things somebody asks for at the worst moment, and all four open quicker when they are already saved.
Will one plan hold for the whole trip around Jordan?
It is sold as one plan for the country, which is what the coverage list on this page names, so moving on in the morning changes nothing you have to set.
Away from a town, expect less, and that is the ground rather than the plan.
Can I make the calls home for everybody?
App calls and video run on mobile data, so this plan carries them, and a grandchild at home can see three faces at once rather than hear one voice.
Your own number stays live for ordinary calls and texts.
Is the hotel connection enough for a trip like this?
Only for the evening.
The questions come while you are standing at a gate or a junction with three people looking at you, and that is nowhere near a password you were handed at a desk.
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 Jordan and what your plan runs on.
It answers for the country and nothing smaller, so a valley floor or a stretch of road away from the towns is its own question.
If one phone is carrying the whole party, put the bookings somewhere a second person can open them.
A charger left behind in a room is the sort of thing that turns one phone into no phone.
Older travellers walk slower and stop more often, and the screen is on for most of it.
Keep a battery pack in the bag that is not the bag with the phone in it.
Keep your usual SIM switched on for calls and texts, and choose the eSIM for mobile data.
