How to Get Your eSIM
- Purchase your plan
Choose from 1, 3, 5 or 7 days of unlimited data. Complete checkout and your eSIM details arrive by email within minutes. - Install the eSIM
Scan the QR code or enter details manually in your phone's settings. You can install before departure or upon arrival in Ireland. - Activate and connect
Enable the eSIM profile once you land. Your phone connects to Meteor or Three networks automatically. - Use your daily allowance
Enjoy 1 GB of high-speed data each day. If you exceed it, your connection continues at 128 Kbps until the next reset.
How the Unlimited Plan Works
Every day you receive 1 GB of high-speed data on Meteor or Three networks across Ireland. Use it for streaming, uploads, video calls or heavy browsing—whatever you need.
Once that 1 GB is gone, your speed drops to 128 Kbps. This is slow, but deliberate: it is enough for Google Maps navigation, WhatsApp messages, email and basic web pages. It is not enough for video streaming, VoIP calls or large downloads. The connection never cuts off entirely—you always have something.
Your daily quota resets at 00:00 UTC. That is a fixed moment in UTC, not midnight where you are, so check your phone's UTC offset if you plan around it. Every unlimited bundle—whether 1 day or 7 days—provides the same 1 GB daily high-speed allowance.
This is a data-only eSIM. There is no phone number included, which means no voice calls and no SMS. If you need to make calls or receive verification codes via SMS, consider the Ireland Voice instead, which includes a working phone number.

Is This Plan Right for You?
The Unlimited plan fits if: you have been caught without data before and refuse to let it happen again. It suits travellers who rely on maps and messaging throughout the day and want the peace of mind that comes from knowing the connection cannot simply vanish. If you tether a laptop occasionally for email or light browsing, 1 GB daily plus fallback speed handles that. If unpredictable usage keeps you anxious about data counters, this removes that worry.
A standard data plan fits better if: you stream video regularly, make frequent VoIP calls, or need coverage for more than 7 days. The longest unlimited plan available is 7 days; for trips beyond that, you can explore the Ireland for data plans with extended validity options. Heavy video users will hit the 1 GB quota quickly and find 128 Kbps frustrating for anything beyond text-based apps. If you know your usage is modest and predictable—say, under 500 MB daily—a fixed-data plan may cost less overall.
Traveller Tips
- Download offline maps for rural Ireland before you leave. At 128 Kbps, re-downloading large map tiles is painfully slow.
- The daily reset happens at 00:00 UTC. Check your phone's UTC offset so you know when your high-speed allowance returns.
- Queue large uploads and downloads for the first part of the day while you still have high-speed data available.
- Keep messaging apps set to auto-download media only on Wi-Fi—this preserves your quota for navigation and essential browsing.
- This is data only: no phone number means no SMS verification codes. Use email-based verification or an authenticator app instead.
- The eSIM cannot be topped up. If your validity ends and you need more time, purchase a fresh plan rather than searching for a refill option.
