About eSIM SOS
Updated: October 22, 2026
What is eSIM SOS?
eSIM SOS is an online store for travel eSIMs: mobile data packages for trips to 198+ countries and regions that install on your phone from a QR code and work as soon as you land, without roaming. It is not the SOS feature of your phone and not a mobile carrier, but a service that sells eSIMs for travel. The official website is esimsos.net. The former address esimsos.com redirects to esimsos.net. The Telegram bot and channel are @esimsos_bot and @esimsos.
What we do
eSIM SOS sells travel eSIMs for trips abroad: Turkey, Thailand, Egypt, the UAE, China, Indonesia, Georgia and more than 190 other destinations. We are not a mobile carrier: we buy data from an international eSIM aggregator with agreements with local networks (Turkcell, Vodafone, AIS, e& and others) and sell fixed packages, for example 5 GB for 30 days in Turkey for $5.30.
The main convenience: pay with crypto (USDT or TON) from any country; bank cards issued in Russia (Mir, Visa, Mastercard) and SBP are also accepted, and in Telegram you can also pay with Stars. No account and no app are needed. The QR code appears on the order page and arrives by email two minutes after payment; on an iPhone with iOS 17.4 the profile installs in one tap.
Who is behind it
The service launched in August 2026. Site operator: Individual Entrepreneur Gulnazira Burankaeva (OGRNIP 325028000026904, INN 027415752300). Founder and author of the blog articles: Gulnazira Burankaeva. We travel with eSIMs ourselves and test everything we write about, from turning on data roaming to how many gigabytes a week in Kemer takes.
How buying works
- Choose the country, data amount and validity in the calculator and enter your email.
- Pay with crypto (USDT or TON) from any country; bank cards issued in Russia (Mir, Visa, Mastercard) and SBP are also accepted. In the Telegram mini app you can also pay with Stars.
- Get the QR code and activation code on the order page and by email.
- Install the profile at home over Wi-Fi and turn it on after landing. The plan starts on the first connection to a network in the destination country.
You can always find your order again by email and order number on the Find order page, no account needed.
Refunds and support
If the eSIM isn't compatible with your phone, including a phone locked to a carrier, or doesn't work, we'll refund you or replace the eSIM (refund policy). To make it work the first time, check your phone before buying: dial *#06#, and the list should include an EID line.
Support replies within an hour during the day: email support@esimsos.ru and Telegram.
