What to know before you land

Your phone won't auto-pick a US carrier when you land — most foreign plans either don't include the US or roam at punitive day rates. A RoamGo eSIM swaps in a local-network data plan before you clear customs, so Apple Maps and Uber work on the curb outside JFK or LAX.

Best for: Business travellers landing in NYC, SF, or Austin; road-trippers needing coast-to-coast LTE; visitors who just want to skip the airport AT&T kiosk line.

Local tip: 5G works on most modern phones, but coverage is patchier in rural areas — 4G LTE is the dependable everyday speed across the country.

Install and activate safely

  1. Confirm that your phone is carrier-unlocked and supports eSIM.
  2. Install the QR code while you still have reliable Wi-Fi.
  3. Keep the eSIM switched off until the plan instructions say to activate it.
  4. On arrival, select the eSIM for mobile data and enable data roaming for that line if instructed.
  5. Keep your home SIM active only if you need calls or texts, and disable its data roaming.
