    Choose destination and pack, pay. No plan, no subscription.

  2. QR code arrives

    Your eSIM arrives by email, usually within minutes, and is in your account.

Top-ups

If the allowance runs out, top up: on the same eSIM, up to 9 times, in your Phonestar account. You get access to the account with your first eSIM.

Even more with a Phonestar plan

With a Phonestar plan your German number lives in the Phonestar Connect app. Over the eSIM's mobile data you can call abroad without roaming charges and receive texts, including codes from your bank. You can then also book mobile data right in the app.
