Heading to the United States? A US eSIM is the easiest way to get mobile data the moment you land — no roaming charges, no hunting for a SIM card at the airport. Here is everything you need to know.
Which networks does a US eSIM use?
Turnaa’s United States eSIM connects to major US carriers — AT&T and Verizon — with 5G where available. Your phone automatically picks the strongest signal, so you get dependable coverage across cities and most travel routes.
How much data do I need?
- Light use (maps, messaging, email): 1–3 GB for a week.
- Regular use (social media, browsing, some streaming): 5–10 GB.
- Heavy use or longer stays: an unlimited daily plan is the safest bet.
Turnaa’s US plans start at $2.99, including unlimited-data options.
How to set up your US eSIM
- Pick a plan and check out — your QR code is emailed in seconds.
- Open Settings › Cellular › Add eSIM and scan the QR.
- Set it as your data line. You are online.
Tip: install it before you fly (you need internet to set it up), then just switch it on when you land.
Frequently asked questions
Will I keep my phone number? Yes — the eSIM is data-only and runs alongside your home SIM, so your number still works for calls and texts.
When does the plan start? Most plans start when the eSIM first connects to a network in the US, not when you buy — so you can set it up early.
Can I top up? Yes — just buy another plan if you run low.
