China eSIM FAQs
What does HK IP or SG IP mean?
Your data is routed through Hong Kong or Singapore rather than a mainland Chinese network. Not sure which suits the apps you use? Our Australian support team can help you choose.
Visiting Hong Kong or Macau too?
Our China, Hong Kong & Macau eSIM covers all three on one plan.
Can I install it in Australia before I fly?
Yes. Install it at home, leave it switched off, then turn on the eSIM and data roaming for that line when you land.
Do I keep my Australian phone number?
Yes. Your Australian SIM stays in your phone, so WhatsApp and iMessage keep working on your usual number. These are data-only plans, so use apps for calls.
What if the eSIM doesn't work on my phone?
