FAQ
Puerto Rico eSIM questions
Which networks does the Puerto Rico eSIM use?
The Puerto Rico plans connect to Claro. Your eSIM is a data-only plan, so you keep your home number on your regular SIM.
Is there 5G in Puerto Rico with this eSIM?
Yes, on Claro. You need a 5G-capable phone, and outside cities the phone can fall back to 4G.
Is there a day-pass plan for Puerto Rico?
No day-pass plans for Puerto Rico at the moment, only fixed-GB plans.
Does the Puerto Rico eSIM work on iPhone and Android?
Yes, on phones that support eSIM: iPhone XS or later, Pixel 3 or later, Galaxy S20 or later and most recent unlocked Android phones. Check your model on our eSIM compatibility page.
How fast will I get the QR code?

Does it include calls and SMS?
No. All plans are data only, with no phone number. Use WhatsApp, Telegram, FaceTime or other apps over the data connection.
Can I keep my home SIM active?
Yes. The eSIM is a second line, so your regular SIM stays active for calls and SMS.
What happens when my data runs out?
Yes. On most plans you can add data to the same eSIM without a new QR code.
Can I use my phone as a hotspot?
Hotspot works on most plans.
What is the refund policy?
Never installed: full refund within 180 days. Installed but never activated: full refund within 30 days. Activated with under 5% of the data used: credit. Technical failure or no coverage: full refund. More than 30% used or plan expired: not refundable. Details are on the refund page.
