How do I install my Barbade 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. “Barbade”), keep it ready, and when you arrive in Barbade turn the line on and enable Data Roaming for it.

How do I install my Barbade eSIM on Android?

On Wi‑Fi: Settings → Network & internet → SIMs → Add eSIM, then scan your Plota QR (or paste the activation code). In Barbade, set Plota as the mobile data SIM and turn Data Roaming on for that line.

How do I turn on Data Roaming for my Barbade eSIM?

Settings → Cellular / Mobile Data → select your Plota Barbade eSIM → turn Data Roaming On. Set Mobile Data to that eSIM line. 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 Barbade eSIM use?

We email the APN and supported networks for your Barbade 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 Barbade eSIM?

Install on Wi‑Fi before departure. The plan typically starts when you first connect to a local network in Barbade, not when you scan the QR. On arrival: enable the Plota line, set it for mobile data, and turn Data Roaming on.

What if I have no internet after installing?
