eSIM for Turkey: prepaid data plans from $5.43
A travel eSIM for Turkey means mobile data from the moment you land, with no roaming to activate and no SIM to buy at the airport. Whether you're crossing Istanbul or drifting over Cappadocia, you pay by card before you fly and scan a QR code to be ready — it starts when you arrive.

Networks the eSIM connects to in Turkey
Once activated, the eSIM automatically connects to the strongest local partner network — no manual setup:

Across the cities and the coast
From Istanbul's two continents to the beaches around Antalya, a data connection keeps maps, ride apps and translation to hand. Cities and resort areas are well covered; on remote stretches of coast or up in the mountains any network can dip, so save what you'll need.
Install before you fly
Add the eSIM at home while you have good wifi. The QR code arrives by email, and the plan waits on your phone until it connects in Turkey. Setting it up in advance means you land ready, rather than searching for a signal or a shop after a long flight.
Keep your number and WhatsApp
The travel plan runs beside your usual SIM, so your home number still receives calls and texts, and WhatsApp works exactly as it does now — handy for booking tours and staying in touch. You use the eSIM only for data and can switch it off whenever you like.
FAQ
Is an eSIM good for a trip to Cappadocia?
Yes. Around the towns and balloon-launch areas you'll have a signal for maps, photos and booking rides. Out in the open valleys it can weaken, as it would for any network, so it helps to save your directions in advance.
When does the plan start counting?
Not when you buy it, but when your phone first connects to a network in Turkey. You can set everything up days ahead and still enjoy your full data allowance from the day you actually arrive.
Will my phone work in Turkey?
Most recent, unlocked phones support eSIM and will connect in Turkey. Check that eSIM appears in your settings and that your handset isn't locked to a single carrier before you travel.
