Not every phone supports eSIM. It takes 10 seconds to check, so please do this before you buy.

1

Open your phone’s dialler

The keypad you use to make calls.

2

Dial *#06#

Type it in exactly as shown. On most phones the info appears straight away; if not, press call.

Look for the word “EID”

Your screen shows your phone’s ID numbers. Check whether one of them is labelled EID.

You see an EID

An EID is a long number (usually 32 digits) labelled “EID”. If it’s there, your phone supports eSIM and you can get a SPAR Mobile eSIM.
