Managing eSIM Roaming Settings: On or Off?

Proper roaming settings are essential to ensure your eSimBestDeal works correctly while traveling.

Roaming with eSimBestDeal

Turn ON data roaming for your eSimBestDeal. This allows the eSIM to connect to the best available local networks abroad without extra charges. ESimBestDeal automatically manages network switching to keep your connection stable.

iOS Cellular Carrier – Data Roaming: ON (eSimBestDeal)

Primary SIM Settings

Keep data roaming OFF for your primary SIM. This prevents your home carrier from connecting to foreign networks, which could result in significant roaming charges.

Think of it this way: With roaming turned off on your primary SIM, you’re telling your home carrier to take a break while eSimBestDeal takes the wheel—connecting you affordably overseas. This setup helps you enjoy your travels without worrying about unexpected roaming charges.

Safe travels!
