FAQ
What type of trip is this 15-day eSIM best for?
It fits short tourism loops (7–14 days), business visits with daily connectivity needs, or multi-city transits with heavy data use. The 15-day window covers most standard itineraries without overpaying for unused days.
When does the 15-day validity start counting?
The countdown begins the moment you connect to any compatible mobile network in mainland China—usually within a few seconds of scanning the QR code. Pre-activation does not start the timer.
What happens if my trip runs longer than 15 days?
Service stops after the last full day of validity. You can purchase a new eSIM from your account before expiry—the new plan activates immediately or after the old one ends, depending on your selection.
Can I top up or extend this 15-day plan?
No—this is a fixed-validity plan. To stay connected beyond 15 days, buy a separate eSIM with a longer term (e.g., 30 days) before your current one expires.
I’m staying only 5 days—will the unused data roll over?
Unused data does not carry over. This plan is best for those who need continuous connectivity for the full 15-day period. For shorter stays, consider a 7-day or 10-day plan to avoid paying for unused days.
