Switzerland eSIM questions
How much does the Switzerland eSIM cost?
Data plans start at $4.95 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 Switzerland?
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 ($45.95). See how much data each app uses.
Which networks does the Switzerland eSIM use?
It uses Sunrise and Salt, 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 up the mountains?
Yes at the stations and summits, Jungfraujoch, the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise and Pilatus included. In the tunnels on the mountain railways it drops.
Which app do I need for trains in Switzerland?
SBB Mobile. It shows train times and platforms and holds your tickets and Swiss Travel Pass. Download it and log in before you fly.
Will I have signal on the Glacier Express?
For most of the trip. It drops in the long tunnels and in some deep valleys.
Does it work on a day trip to Chamonix or Lake Como?
No, those are in France and Italy, and this eSIM is Switzerland only. The Europe eSIM covers Switzerland, France, Italy and 36 more countries.
When does my Switzerland plan start?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in Switzerland. 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 Switzerland eSIM as a hotspot?
Yes. Every Switzerland 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 Switzerland 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.
