Portugal eSIM questions
How much does the Portugal eSIM cost?
Data plans start at $3.95 for 1GB over 7 days, and 10GB for 30 days is $13.95. Prices are in AUD, with no roaming charges on top.
How much data do I need in Portugal?
Most travellers use about 1GB a day with maps, messaging and some social media, so 10GB ($13.95) covers a week. Just maps and messages? 3GB ($6.95) is enough for a week. Streaming or a laptop hotspot? Pick 50GB ($44.95). See how much data each app uses.
Which networks does the Portugal eSIM use?
It uses Vodafone and NOS, and joins whichever has the best signal where you are. You get 5G where the network has it, if your phone supports 5G, and 4G everywhere else.
Does it work in Madeira and the Azores?
Yes. Both are part of Portugal, so they're covered the same as the mainland.
Do Uber and Bolt work in Portugal?
Yes, in Lisbon, Porto, the Algarve and Madeira. Log in and add a card before you fly.
Does it work on the Lisbon metro and trams?
Yes. The metro has signal in the stations and tunnels, and the old trams run in the open.
Can I use it in Spain?
No, it's Portugal only. Spain has its own eSIM, and the Europe eSIM covers Portugal, Spain and 37 more countries.
When does my Portugal plan start?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in Portugal. Install it on Wi-Fi a day or two before you fly: the days don't start counting until you land.
Can I use the Portugal eSIM as a hotspot?
Yes. Every Portugal plan can share its data with a laptop, a tablet or a travel partner's phone. Anything you share comes off the same plan.
Does the Portugal eSIM include calls and texts?
No, it's data only, with no local number. Call and text over WhatsApp, iMessage or FaceTime. Your Australian number stays on your phone, so texts like bank codes still arrive.
