Adding Canada and Mexico to your trip

Our country-specific USA eSIM works within the United States. However, if you also want to visit Canada or Mexico, then consider our North America 3 countries eSIM.

Alternatively, if you are travelling to only one of these neighbouring country, then consider choosing a dedicated Canada eSIM or Mexico eSIM.

eSIM vs roaming in the USA

Daily roaming fees can significantly add up across a two-week holiday or month-long road trip. Plus, your home mobile carrier may impose daily data limits or reduce speed after you reach an allowance.

A travel eSIM data plan, on the other hand, has an upfront price and a set amount of data. It also enables you to install the eSIM before your depart while keeping your physical SIM card in the phone. Read our post on why Cedar Mobile, dare to compare for more information.

Yes. You can purchase and install a USA eSIM before departing on your travels. However, we recommend completing the setup while connected to a strong home Wi-Fi network.

You can check which high-speed mobile networks your Cedar Mobile eSIM connects to in the USA by checking Technical Specs > Networks above.

If you have a compatible dual-SIM phone, you can keep your home SIM active for your regular phone number and use the USA eSIM for mobile data. However, your home mobile provider may charge roaming fees for calls and SMS. Check the rates before you leave.

Yes. WhatsApp, Telegram, Viper, iMessage and similar services work through the eSIM’s internet connection.
