No. An eSIM can be installed only once, and it locks to the first device it is installed on. It cannot be moved to another phone, re-scanned, or reinstalled afterward, and it is non-refundable once installed. Please install your eSIM on the device you plan to keep using. If you are switching devices and need help, contact our support team.

With CheapESIM, you purchase dedicated high-speed data, ensuring a private and fast connection across the entire region. This means you can browse, stream, and navigate with confidence, avoiding the frustration of unreliable hotel networks, and often at a fraction of the cost of resort-provided premium Wi-Fi.

This ensures you can share your stunning photos or use navigation without worrying about excessive roaming charges.

No, this specific CheapESIM plan is designed exclusively for use within the Dominican Republic. Although Hispaniola is a shared island, the two countries operate entirely separate telecommunications networks. If your travel plans include crossing the border into Haiti, or if you are very close to the border, your connection will cease to function or switch to extremely expensive international roaming. For travel to Haiti, you would need to purchase a separate eSIM plan specifically for that country to ensure cost-effective connectivity.

This allows you to explore independently and safely, knowing your data won't let you down, all while saving significantly compared to traditional roaming.
