Revolut launches eSIM

A seamless way to avoid unexpected roaming charges.

In brief:

- Revolut, the global financial app with over 35 million customers worldwide and 8+ million in the UK, becomes the first financial institution in the UK to offer eSIMs and global data plans to its UK customers. 

- Available to UK customers later this week, Revolut customers on eSIM-compatible devices will have access to the eSIM, regardless of their plan.

- With the eSIM installed via the Revolut app, Ultra customers will gain access to a new benefit as part of their plan – 3GB of mobile data to use globally, with a rolling refresh every month.

What does mean?

Elyas Sadou, Product Owner of eSIM at Revolut, commented: “At Revolut, we harness technology to simplify our customers’ lives, and that’s precisely what our eSIM accomplishes. It offers seamless access to mobile data, eliminating the inconvenience of high prices or the need to buy and organise a physical SIM card. Whether you are in the US, Australia or Egypt, you can effortlessly secure a data plan with just a few taps on your phone, and then instantly share those breathtaking photos of your trip with friends and family. It’s a game-changer for people who love to travel.”
