Algeria eSIM FAQ
Will a Algeria eSIM work on my phone?
It works on any eSIM-compatible phone that is carrier-unlocked, including iPhone XS/XR and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer (not all regional models), and recent Samsung Galaxy models such as the S20 series and later. Check Settings on your phone for an eSIM or "Add eSIM" option, or dial *#06# and look for an EID number.
How do I get and install my Algeria eSIM?
After checkout you receive your eSIM by email within minutes, with a QR code and step-by-step instructions. It is also available in your AirCo Travel account. Scan the QR code from another screen (or use the manual details) in your phone eSIM settings. We also attach a PDF installation guide for iPhone, Pixel, Samsung and other Android phones.
When should I install it?
You can install the eSIM before you travel, at home on Wi-Fi. Most plans start their validity when you first connect to a network in Algeria, so installing early does not use up your days. Check the plan details on the product page.
Can I keep my regular phone number?
Yes. The eSIM is added next to your normal SIM, so you keep your number and can still receive calls and texts on it. Switch mobile data to the eSIM and turn off data roaming on your main line to avoid roaming charges.
Does it include calls and texts?
Most AirCo Travel eSIM plans are data-only. You can still message and call with apps such as WhatsApp, FaceTime, Messenger or Google Meet over your data. The product page states clearly what each plan includes.
How much data do I need for Algeria?
For maps, messaging and light browsing, 1 GB lasts about a week. For regular social media, video calls or working remotely, choose 3 GB or more, or a longer-duration plan. Plans cover different data amounts and durations so you can choose what fits your trip.
