Each Checkout link opens payment with that plan selected: only the email address and payment remain.

## How it works

1. Choose a plan and pay on the product page (card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal or crypto).
2. The eSIM QR code arrives by email; install it before you travel (Settings > Mobile/Cellular > Add eSIM).
3. On arrival, select the eSIM for mobile data and turn on data roaming for it. Your own SIM stays in the phone for calls and SMS.

Data-only: the eSIM has no phone number. Requires an eSIM-compatible, carrier-unlocked phone.

## Your eSIM for Cape Verde - online across the islands

Cape Verde sits off West Africa and is outside any EU roaming arrangement, so a travel eSIM is the easy way to stay connected on Sal, Boa Vista and the other islands. Install it before you travel and you are online as soon as you land.

## Getting online at Sal and Boa Vista

The eSIM connects when you switch off airplane mode at Sal (SID) or Boa Vista (BVC), the main resort gateways. Your hotel transfer and maps are ready before you reach the shuttle.

## Coverage in the resorts and beyond

Cape Verde's networks (CVMovel and Unitel T+) cover the resort areas of Santa Maria, Sal Rei and the island towns with 4G. Coverage is focused around the populated and tourist zones, so download offline maps if you are exploring the volcanic interior or quieter islands.

## FAQ

### Does EU roaming cover Cape Verde?

No - Cape Verde is outside the EU, so EU roaming does not apply. A dedicated eSIM avoids expensive standard roaming.

### Is coverage good in the beach resorts?

Yes - the resort areas on Sal and Boa Vista are well covered. The volcanic interior and quieter islands can be patchy, so save offline maps.
