You do not get a new phone number with this eSIM.
Setting up your eSIM? The installation and activation guide walks through it step by step, and the full FAQ covers device compatibility, hotspot, dual SIM and topping up.
This eSIM can use any of Germany's three established nationwide networks: Telekom, Vodafone and O2 (Telefónica). That matters in the countryside, where each network has its own gaps - Germans call them Funklöcher. If one drops out, pick another from the network list in your phone's mobile settings.
According to the regulator, the Bundesnetzagentur, about 97.5% of Germany's area had 4G from at least one network in January 2025, and its online Funkloch map shows where coverage is thin.
A SIM from an EU or EEA country already works in Germany at home prices under the EU's roam-like-at-home rules, within your operator's fair-use allowance. This eSIM is mainly for everyone else: the UK has not been covered since it left the EU, and Turkey, Switzerland and the US never were. On an EU SIM it is still useful if you need more data than your allowance.
Deutsche Bahn offers free WiFi on every ICE, in first and second class, with no time limit. It is shared by the whole train, and DB asks passengers to avoid heavy streaming and downloads. Only some IC and regional trains have WiFi, so the eSIM is what keeps you online on regional trains, the S-Bahn and trams, or when the on-board WiFi drops.
You can, but German law requires your identity to be checked before a German prepaid SIM is activated - often by video call or in a shop. This eSIM is bought online before you travel, so there is no German ID check or shop visit, and it carries data only, with no German number.
No - it covers Germany only. On a train across the border it stops working once your phone switches to a foreign network, so buy an eSIM for the next country as well.
All three networks have large 5G footprints. Whether your phone connects to 5G on this eSIM depends on the network it picks and your phone, so plan on 4G.
Using your US plan in Germany means a day pass on most carriers: a week on AT&T's or Verizon's comes to $84.00 for one line, against data plans from $3.44 here. The passes include calls and texts; our eSIMs are data-only and your US number keeps working beside them.
| Carrier | Cost in Germany | Worth knowing |
|---|---|---|
| AT&T | $12 a day (International Day Pass) | $6 a day for each extra line; at most 10 days are charged per line per bill. Elite 2.0 includes 20 GB a month abroad. |
| Verizon | $12 a day (TravelPass) | 5 GB of high-speed data a day, then 3G speeds. Or $100 a month for 20 GB. Unlimited Ultimate includes 15 GB a month abroad. |
