– Which eSIM should I choose?

We currently offer 2 versions of eSIM’s for your best travel experience:

👉 With Hong Kong IP (the cheaper option):

You can use most Western apps (Google, WhatsApp, Instagram, YouTube, etc.) without a VPN.
Restrictions: Some content is still partially blocked or unstable, e.g. TikTok works to a limited extent with the Hong Kong IP (international version)

👉 With Singapore IP (premium version “SG Location – TikTok ready”):

Free Internet with all apps, because your traffic comes from Singapore.
This also allows services to run that do not go cleanly via Hong Kong:
- TikTok (international version – 90% probability, better on iPhone)
- Full access to streaming (Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, Hulu, etc.)
- Western news sites and apps without exceptions
- Banking apps and PayPal that perform geo-checks

In short:

Hong Kong IP = absolutely sufficient for social media, Google, WhatsApp.

Singapore IP = if you also want to try access to Tiktok (with iPhone), streaming, online banking or want full internet freedom.

Own POVNOMAD experience:

With Hong Kong eSIM, around 85% of all apps and websites are stable.
With the Singapore Location eSIM it is even 90-100% (usually more reliable on iPhone than on Android).
Special feature: TikTok is a problem because the app accesses SIM details – therefore not guaranteed to be usable on every device, but SG Location – TikTok ready is currently the only way to access the app. TikTok usually works with iPhone, but not with various Samsung Galaxy not

👉 Important note: We only guarantee the specified IP location (Hong Kong or Singapore) of the eSIM. Which apps and services actually work depends on many factors. A return is not possible once the eSIM has been used. If certain services need to be used urgently, we recommend testing with a small starter package with e.g. 3GB SG Location

FAQ – Frequently asked questions:

How do I receive my eSIM?

Directly by email, including a QR code and instructions – immediately after purchase.

When does the term of my eSIM begin?

Upon first contact with the partner network – not upon purchase. You can also install the eSIM immediately! The term days only begin with the first contact in the host country.

I have installed the eSIM, but have no connection to the network?

Normally, there is not much to consider during installation – we recommend scanning the QR code or using the quick installation button in the eSIM link. If the connection does not work immediately, follow our troubleshooting instructions (below).

Where can I see the remaining data volume or the remaining term?

You will receive an individual eSIM link by email with details about your ordered eSIM. Follow the link and scroll down to ‘Check Usage’ – here you will find the remaining duration and remaining data volume. You will also find other interesting details under the link, such as valid countries, network partners you can use and quick installation buttons for Android and iPhone.

Is hotspot permitted?

Yes, in most countries. Details can be found in the product description.

Can I top up my data allowance or extend the term?

Yes, of course – in the email delivery you will find the item ‘Top up eSIM’ or search for ‘Top up’ in the store and book your extra gigabytes!

Still not working? Possible sources of error:

– You are not yet in the country/region of the eSIM (e.g. you buy a Turkey eSIM before your holiday, install it on your device, but have no reception? –> You will only receive reception on our partner network once you land, then it will work).

– Check whether the following has been activated: 1) Mobile data for the eSIM 2) Data roaming for the eSIM

– Check that the APN settings are correct. At the top, you will find the APN settings tab (e.g. on Android: the APN for eSIM Turkey or Georgia must be entered manually here – it is ‘isp’). You can find the correct APN settings under your individual eSIM link, which you received by email.

– Select our partner network manually: Settings –> Mobile networks –> Network operators –> Manual search –> You can find our network partner in the POVNOMAD eSIM email under the ‘Activate now’ button.
