Reminder! To download your GoMoWorld eSIM, you need three things. Top tip – do this before you depart for the quickest way to get going:

 

  • an internet connection (i.e. Wifi or other mobile data connectivity)
  • a compatible handset (see section “Is my device compatible ?“)
  • a GoMoWorld account and at least one purchased Plan (see Section “How do I buy and start a GoPlan ?“)

“Add mobile plan” with a QR-code.

 

To install an eSIM on your Google Pixel device, follow these steps:

 

After purchasing your first GoPlan, the GoMoWorld app will direct you to install an eSIM with a dedicated button “INSTALL ESIM”
