You receive the QR code within minutes of purchase. Simply scan it to activate; validity begins upon installation.

Does this eSIM support phone calls and text messages?

No—this is mobile data only. You can use data-based apps like WhatsApp, Viber, or Telegram for calls and messaging, but traditional voice and SMS are not supported.

Can I share the data with other devices using hotspot?

Yes, mobile hotspot is supported, so you can tether multiple devices to this single eSIM connection.

You must activate within one month of purchase, and validity begins immediately upon installation. Time activation for your arrival in Turkey to make full use of the 30-day window.

What network speeds can I expect in Cappadocia?

The eSIM connects to major local Turkish networks at 4G LTE or 5G speeds where available. Coverage may vary in remote valleys and underground cave areas; downloading offline maps beforehand is recommended.
