What checks out before payment.

eSIM supported

iPhone 15 (2023) ships with eSIM hardware.

Carrier coverage

3 partner carriers in Italy · auto-handoff between them.

Speed band

90 – 180 Mbps urban · 45 ms RTT.

Install · IOS

6 steps from QR to online.

  1. 01

    Open Settings on your iPhone

    Tap the Settings app (gray gear icon) from your home screen or App Library.

  2. 02

    Go to Cellular (or Mobile Data)

    Scroll to Cellular. On some regions iOS labels this Mobile Data instead.

  3. 03

    Tap Add eSIM

    Choose Add eSIM (older iOS calls this Add Cellular Plan).

  4. 04

    Choose Use QR Code

    Tap Use QR Code, then open the eSIM email from travel.to on another device and scan the QR.

  5. 05

    Label the line travel.to

    When iOS asks for a label, pick travel.to so you can tell it apart from your home SIM.

  6. 06

    Confirm and finish

    Confirm the default line settings. Your phone will activate the eSIM on landing — you don't need to do anything else until you reach your destination.

Once installed, the eSIM is dormant until iPhone 15 reaches a partner carrier's network in Italy — typically the moment you land. No manual switch, no carrier app.

Common questions.

Yes. iPhone 15 ships with eSIM hardware and travel.to routes you to a local partner carrier in Italy. Under-2-minute install, full refund if anything fails.

Full refund if the eSIM fails to activate. Half refund if it activates but underperforms (used <500 MB → full anyway). One click from your dashboard, no email thread.
Yes. Top-ups reuse the same eSIM profile on iPhone 15 — no new QR scan needed. Same line, fresh data.
