How It Works

Get connected worldwide in 3 simple steps

1

Top Up Your Account

Create an account with just your email and add funds. Start with as little as $10, and top up again whenever you need to.

  • • Minimum $10 top-up
  • • Balance never expires
  • • No contracts or daily fees
2

Get Your eSIM

Your eSIM is issued the moment your first top-up goes through. Scan the QR code or use direct install on your device.

  • • QR code or direct install
  • • Works in 220 destinations
  • • One eSIM for everywhere
3

Use Data Anywhere

Travel and use data at the rates shown per MB. No contracts, no expiration. Top up anytime you need more.

  • • Pay-as-you-go billing
  • Per-MB rates
  • • No daily fees
  • • Balance never expires

Installation Guide

Before You Start

Check Device Compatibility

Ensure your device supports eSIM technology. Most modern smartphones (iPhone XS+, Samsung Galaxy S20+, Google Pixel 3+) are compatible.

Create Your Account

Sign up with just your email. We'll send a 6-digit verification code. No passwords needed — simple and secure.

eSIM Installation

iOS Installation

  1. 1. Go to Settings > Cellular > Add eSIM
  2. 2. Tap "Use QR Code"
  3. 3. Scan the QR code from your account
  4. 4. Follow on-screen instructions to activate

Android Installation

  1. 1. Go to Settings > Connections > SIM Manager
  2. 2. Tap "Add eSIM" and scan QR code
  3. 3. Wait for eSIM to download
  4. 4. Enable the new data plan

No data after installing? Turn on Data Roaming for the Aura eSIM line, restart thephone, and if it still will not connect, set the APN. Our APN settings page has the values and the exact steps. Worth bookmarking before you travel, since you will want it at the one moment you have no connection.

How Billing Works

Billed on Actual Usage

Rates are quoted per MB, but you are billed for the data you actually use, down to the kilobyte. Nothing is rounded up to the next megabyte, there is no minimum charge per session, and there are no daily fees or expiration dates.

What the 10 Minutes Means

Every 10 minutes we reconcile your usage with the network and update your balance. That is how often the number you see refreshes, not a block you get charged for. It also means your displayed balance can trail your real usage by a few minutes.

Two Worked Examples

  • Use 300 KB inside a 10 minute window and you are billed for 300 KB, not a full MB.
  • Leave your phone off Wi-Fi for an hour and let background tasks pull 100 KB every 10 minutes: that is 600 KB for the hour in total, not 6 MB and certainly not 600 MB.

Top Up Anytime

When your balance gets low, simply add more funds. Your balance never expires and there are no overage charges — data pauses until you top up.
