Lobster eSIM or physical SIM: which should I choose?

Whichever you prefer, you choose during checkout. Pick our physical universal SIM and it’ll fit any phone: it works as a nano, micro or standard SIM, so you just pop out the size you need, and we deliver it free within a few days. Or go for an eSIM and skip the wait altogether, we email you a QR code, you scan it, and you’re connected in minutes. You’ll just need an eSIM-compatible phone.

Not sure if your mobile phone is compatible with eSIM?

There’s a quick way to check. Open your phone’s dialler and enter *#06#. A device information screen will appear, if you see a number labelled EID, your phone supports eSIM. If you only see an IMEI and no EID, it most likely doesn’t. To be sure, you can also go to your mobile phone’s settings and search for ‘eSIM’ or ‘Add data plan’.
