Why an eSIM is Recommended for Mexico

No Free EU Roaming

Unlike European countries, Mexico does not benefit from free EU roaming. Your home plan will be expensive: between $2 and $5 per MB depending on your carrier. For a one-week trip with moderate usage (browsing, social media), you can easily spend $50 to $100 on roaming.

Free WiFi vs eSIM

Free WiFi is indeed widespread in Mexico (hotels, cafes, shopping malls), but it has risks:

Security: unsecured public networks, hacking risks
Reliability: unstable connections, frequent dropouts
Mobility: impossible to use while traveling (transport, excursions)

An eSIM offers secure and reliable connectivity everywhere, even in remote areas.

Network Coverage in Mexico

Mexico has good 4G coverage in tourist areas thanks to three major carriers:

Carrier	Coverage	5G	Market Share	Used by
Telcel	95%	Yes	70% (leader)	GoMoWorld, Airalo
AT&T Mexico	90%	Yes	20%	LinkeSIM, Saily
Movistar	85%	Yes	10%	Holafly

Coverage by destination

Mexico City: perfect 4G/5G throughout the capital
Cancún, Playa del Carmen, Tulum: excellent 4G coverage in the Riviera Maya
Puerto Vallarta: good coverage on the Pacific coast
Oaxaca: good coverage in the city, variable in rural areas
Chichén Itzá: decent coverage in the archaeological zone and surroundings
Rural areas: variable by region, generally good in tourist areas

How to Install Your Mexico eSIM

Purchase your plan (QR code received by email in 2 min)
Install 24-48h before departure from your WiFi
Activate upon arrival in Mexico (timer starts)
Keep your home SIM for calls and texts

Compatibility: iPhone XS+, Samsung S20+, Pixel 3+, Xiaomi 12+, OnePlus 8+
