iPhone 12 in United States

Common questions.

Yes. iPhone 12 ships with eSIM hardware, and travel.to routes it onto AT&T, T-Mobile USA, and Verizon in United States. The line activates the moment you land — install takes under two minutes and is fully refundable if it fails to activate.
Yes. iPhone 12 supports dual SIM worldwide, so your home SIM stays in the tray and travel.to installs alongside it as a second line. No swapping, no removing your primary number.
On iPhone 12 open Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM, choose Use QR Code, and scan the QR from your travel.to email. That is 6 taps from QR to online. iOS labels the path "Mobile Data" in some regions.
Under two minutes. The QR arrives by email seconds after payment; 6 taps later the profile is installed on iPhone 12. It stays dormant until you reach a partner network in United States (6 zones · UTC−5 to UTC−10) — usually the instant you land, before you have changed your clock.
In United States we route on AT&T, T-Mobile USA, and Verizon. iPhone 12 hands off automatically to whichever has the strongest signal where you are — you do not pick the carrier, the phone does.
90 – 280 Mbps urban · 38 ms RTT. iPhone 12 negotiates the fastest band the local network offers, so in covered areas you get the same speeds a native SIM would pull on the same carrier.
Default home-carrier roaming in United States runs about $12 – 25 per GB. A travel.to plan for United States sits an order of magnitude below that, and you never get a surprise bill — you pay once, up front, for the data you chose.
No need. The airport SIM kiosks in United States keep limited hours (Mostly absent — US airports do not sell SIM at most terminals) and you would queue at them with the rest of your flight. Install the travel.to eSIM on iPhone 12 before you board and you walk straight past them, already online.
Three carriers per region · auto-failover below signal threshold iPhone 12 falls back automatically — you never have to switch networks by hand.
Yes. Top-ups reuse the United States eSIM profile already on iPhone 12 — no new QR scan, no second install. Same line, fresh data, added from your United States order page in one tap.
Full refund if the United States eSIM fails to activate on iPhone 12. Half refund if it activates but underperforms on AT&T, T-Mobile USA, and Verizon (and if you used under 500 MB, you get the full amount). One click from your dashboard — no email thread.
iPhone 12 follows the standard iOS eSIM flow with no model-specific gotchas. If anything looks different in your region, the QR email includes a direct support link.
