How does Simbye eSIM work for the Caribbean?
Pick your plan
Choose the data amount that fits your trip. The email with the setup link and QR code arrives right after purchase — no contract, no waiting.
Set it up at home on WLAN
Install the eSIM before you fly, in your own time. It only goes live when you switch it on at your destination — whether you land in Punta Cana (PUJ), Montego Bay (MBJ), San Juan (SJU), Bridgetown (BGI), Bogotá (BOG), Lima (LIM), São Paulo (GRU) or Buenos Aires (EZE).
Switch it on after landing
Turn on data roaming for the eSIM and your phone finds the network by itself. The plan starts counting from that first connection. Hotspot for your laptop or tablet is allowed, and there is no APN to enter.
Check Device Compatibility
Make sure your device supports eSIM before purchasing

eSIM or a local SIM card in the Caribbean?
Island-hopping settles it: one eSIM keeps working as you cross into the next country, so no data is stranded, while a local card means a new purchase and swap on every island, though that card comes with a local number.
| Feature |  Simbye eSIM |
Local SIM card |
|---|---|---|
| Crossing a border | Nothing to do — the same eSIM keeps working in the next country | Buy and swap a new card in every country |
| Setup | At home on WLAN, by link or QR code from the email | In a shop on arrival, with the trip there and the queue |
| ID and registration | Not needed | Depending on the country, ID or registration at the counter |
| Online from when | Straight after landing, still in the arrivals hall | Only after the shop visit |
| Leftover data | One pool you use up across every country on the list | Leftovers sit stranded in each country separately |
| Own phone number | None — this is data only | A local number is included |
| Language at purchase | English or German, calmly before you leave | In the local language at the counter |
| Your usual number | Stays active in the phone, the eSIM runs alongside it | A physical card often takes your only SIM slot |
For most travelers the eSIM is the simpler choice: set up before departure, no queuing on arrival.

Frequently Asked Questions about Caribbean (25+ areas) eSIM
Data, calls, real phone numbers, top-ups and setup — everything you need to know before you buy a Simbye eSIM.
The Caribbean eSIM covers all 25 countries and islands on the list on this page — from the Dominican Republic across the Lesser Antilles to Brazil, Peru and Argentina. An eSIM for the Caribbean is a digital SIM card built into your phone. You buy once, set up once and use the same data everywhere on that list; when you cross a border there is nothing to change and nothing to buy again.
No, Cuba is not included in the Caribbean eSIM. Cuba is not on the country list and is not covered by this plan. If Cuba is part of your route you will need a separate solution there.
No, the Caribbean eSIM doesn't work on a cruise ship out at sea. The plan uses the mobile networks on land. As soon as you are ashore in one of the listed countries you are back online. The ship's own onboard network is a different thing and is not included.
No, this eSIM can't make calls or receive texts — it's a data-only plan with no number of its own. Calls and messages through WhatsApp and similar services run over the data and work normally.
The plan starts counting from the first time it connects to a network at your destination, not from the moment you buy. So you can book weeks ahead and set everything up calmly at home.
How much data you need for the Caribbean depends on the trip: a short island week of maps, messengers and bookings needs the small plan, a longer multi-country trip the larger one. Maps and messages use very little — what eats data is video, streaming and uploading photos, so do that on your accommodation's WLAN.
Yes, you can use your phone as a hotspot. You can share the connection with a laptop, a tablet or a travel companion's phone. It comes out of the same data allowance.
No, you don't set anything up by hand — no APN to enter. The one thing that matters is switching data roaming on for the eSIM — otherwise it stays offline.
Yes, the Caribbean eSIM lets you keep your normal number. The eSIM runs alongside your usual SIM. Just set mobile data to run through the eSIM and leave data roaming off for your main SIM, or you will get the expensive bill from home.
An eSIM for the Caribbean starts at 8,95€; the best one depends on your route. If you island-hop, one plan that rides local networks across 25+ areas saves you buying a new card at every stop. This one is data only, no local number, 1 to 5 GB over 7 to 30 days. Fine for maps, messaging and photos; too thin if you stream daily or stay put for a month.
