Travel eSIM Chile

Our Chile travel eSIMs are purely data - no native voice or SMS services are included. If you need calling, use an internet - based app like WhatsApp or Messenger over your data connection.

Yes! Your Chile eSIM can be installed as early as 30 days before you travel. It won’t start until you touch down in Chile.

Installing beforehand means no setup stress on arrival, and it won’t use any data or days until you land.

If you get an activation warning on iPhone when installing before arriving, that’s normal - check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide for details.

Our Chile travel eSIM is strictly for data; it doesn’t come with a phone number or traditional call/SMS service. You will need to use an internet based app for communication.

Your eSIM will activate automatically when you arrive in Chile. Though we recommend installing your Chile Travel eSIM before you arrive (this is different to activating).

To do this, scan the QR code we provide or install the eSIM directly from the ZenSim app while connected to WiFi. Once you arrive in Chile, your eSIM will activate automatically.

If you encounter any issues check out our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or contact us directly ☺️

If installed before your trip, it will activate when you land in Chile.

If installed after arrival, it goes live right away.

Hands down, a travel eSIM beats roaming in Chile. Here’s why:

Cheaper Data: Pay local prices rather than roaming surcharges from your home network.

Instant Setup: No waiting for physical SIM delivery - your eSIM is ready the minute you land.

Full Expense Control: Track data usage and spending in - app, so you avoid surprise fees.

No - the plan’s data and days only start when you arrive in Chile. Installation beforehand simply sets it up for activation on landing.

We recommend installing before departure since you will need WiFi to complete the installation process and this way you will be connected as soon as you land.

Yes - ZenSim’s eSIMs work in 200+ destinations, and Chile is included. For travellers needing multiple-country access, we offer regional eSIMs. You can find those on our Travel eSIMs page.

Signal & Connectivity: If you’re stuck without data, follow our detailed troubleshooting guide. If issues persist, contact support and we’ll fix it promptly.

Install Assistance: For help installing, consult our installation walkthrough. Still need help? Reach out and we’ll guide you step by step.

Other Support Requests: For anything else, head to our contact page.

Most ZenSim eSIMs can be topped up directly inside the app. If you ever need extra data, additional days, or want to include a new destination on the same eSIM, the Zen Garden is where you can do it.

Simply log in, tap into the Zen Garden, and you’ll find the option to top up right there.

Available top ups: For Chile, the top up plans are identical to the ones on the site, but you get a 10% discount.

Extending your stay: Planning to be away longer than 30 days? You can buy multiple top ups ahead of time. They activate one after another, so there’s no risk of replacing your current plan.

More than one country: Many eSIMs now let you attach extra countries through a top up. For example, while using a Europe eSIM you can add Singapore as an extra destination. It will activate automatically when you land in Singapore.

Single-country eSIMs like the Chile one are only valid within that country once activated.

For travel across borders, a regional plan might suit you better - our regional Travel eSIMs cover multiple countries in one.

Easy - once you have purchased your Chile eSIM, you will be able to access your unique referral URL. From there, simply share it with your people, and when they sign up (provided they're a new customer) you will both save A$5.

For each person you refer you will earn a A$5 voucher on your account which will be automatically applied to your next purchase and as we mentioned your referee will also save A$5 on their order.

The ZenSim app lets you track referrals and copy your referral URL anytime. See our terms for more information.

It might, but only if you're on an unlimited plan and only after you pass 3GB in a single day - which is well above what most people actually use (under 1GB a day on average).

Once you hit that 3GB mark, your speed drops to 1Mbps until midnight, then resets back to full speed for the new day.

If you're on a fixed-data plan like 10GB or 20GB, none of this applies - there's no daily limit, just use your data as needed until the plan runs out. We'll notify you beforehand, and you can top up right away in the ZenSim app.

Not at all - installing early doesn't use up any of your days or data, and it doesn't set a start date either. Everything stays dormant until you actually land in Chile.

Once you arrive, and provided you've already installed it, your eSIM activates automatically and your plan's official start date is that moment of arrival.

The end date follows on from there - it'll expire once your data or days run out, whichever happens first (or just the days if you've gone unlimited). A 30-day plan gives you a full 30 days from the moment you land in Chile, no matter how far in advance you bought or installed it.

Simplest way is to pop your phone into our eSIM compatibility checker - it'll tell you straight away whether it's good to go with our Chile eSIM and the networks behind it.

If you're still unsure after that, get in touch with us and we'll help you figure it out. And just in case your phone isn't compatible after all, our refund policy means you'll get a full refund - so go ahead and grab a plan without the worry.

Absolutely - that's exactly what our 100% money back guarantee is there for.

Whether your trip gets cancelled, your phone turns out not to be eSIM-compatible, or your plans just change and you can't use it anymore, you're covered.

All the details live in our refund policy, but the short version is simple: if you can't install or use the eSIM, we'll refund you in full. Nobody should pay for a plan they can't use.
