Espiritu Santo eSIM — questions, answered
How does an eSIM work in Espiritu Santo?
An eSIM is a digital SIM in your phone. Buy a Espiritu Santo plan on Plota, scan the QR we email you, and a data line installs next to your home SIM. Use Plota for data in Espiritu Santo while your regular number stays for calls, texts, WhatsApp, and iMessage.
How do I install my Espiritu Santo eSIM on iPhone?
On Wi‑Fi before you travel: Settings → Cellular (or Mobile Data) → Add eSIM, then scan the QR from your Plota email or dashboard. Label the line (e.g. “Espiritu Santo”), keep it ready, and when you arrive in Espiritu Santo turn the line on and enable Data Roaming for it.
How do I install my Espiritu Santo eSIM on Android?
On Wi‑Fi: Settings → Network & internet → SIMs → Add eSIM, then scan your Plota QR (or paste the activation code). In Espiritu Santo, set Plota as the mobile data SIM and turn Data Roaming on for that line.
How do I select the correct network for my Espiritu Santo eSIM?
After you install your Espiritu Santo eSIM, open Settings → Cellular / Mobile Data (or Network & internet → SIMs), tap the Plota line, and select the network shown on your plan card or in the Plota app/dashboard. Do not guess a carrier — use the name listed for your plan.
How do I turn on Data Roaming for my Espiritu Santo eSIM?
In Espiritu Santo, open Settings → Cellular / Mobile Data → select your Plota Espiritu Santo eSIM → turn Data Roaming On. Also set Mobile Data to that eSIM line (not only your home SIM). Leave your home SIM’s roaming off if you want to avoid home-carrier roaming charges while still receiving calls/texts on your usual number.
What APN and networks does the Espiritu Santo eSIM use?
We email the APN and supported networks for your Espiritu Santo plan after purchase, and the same details appear on that eSIM in your Plota dashboard. Set mobile data to Plota, turn Data Roaming on for that line, and enter the APN only if your phone requests it or data does not start automatically.
When should I install my Espiritu Santo eSIM?
Install on Wi‑Fi before departure. The plan typically starts when you first connect to a local network in Espiritu Santo, not when you scan the QR. On arrival: enable the Plota line, set it for mobile data, and turn Data Roaming on.
