If you've ever fumbled with swapping SIM cards at the airport or dreaded the horror of outrageous roaming charges, Touch 'n Go eWallet has a solution for you. The popular e-wallet app now offers a travel eSIM service, giving users instant access to mobile data in 149 countries, including Japan, South Korea, China, and Singapore.
No More Physical SIM Swaps—Just Tap and Go
This new feature, launched in partnership with Airalo, lets users buy an eSIM and activate a data plan directly within the TnG eWallet app. That means no more fiddling with tiny SIM cards or worrying about losing your primary SIM while traveling.
For those unfamiliar, an eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM card that's built into compatible smartphones. Instead of inserting a physical SIM, you can switch networks directly from your phone settings—a lifesaver for frequent travelers.
Keep Your Number While Using a Travel eSIM
If you rely on your main SIM for calls and texts but still want cheap data abroad, Dual SIM technology has you covered. Most modern smartphones allow you to run a physical SIM and an eSIM at the same time, so you can stay connected to your home number while using the eSIM for data. Just make sure your device supports eSIM before you get too excited!
