Your eSIM connects to Orange, Movistar, Vodafone and Yoigo in Spain. Network choice is automatic: the phone joins the strongest partner network where it is, and the eSIM cannot be locked to one carrier. Your own SIM stays in the phone for calls and bank texts, while the eSIM handles mobile data.
This automatic selection is useful when you move between cities and coasts. The phone picks whichever partner network is strongest at that spot, so you do not manage anything in settings.
The plan is data only and comes with no local phone number. WhatsApp and app calls work over data. If you run low, data can be added to the same eSIM online without a new QR code.
Spain has 5G, the highest generation available on these networks. Mobile subscriptions reach 130 per 100 people and 96 percent of the population uses the internet, according to the ITU via the World Bank. Coverage figures were checked on 2026-10-31. Your eSIM uses the same four networks as local phones.
A high subscription count points to dense mobile infrastructure, which matters when you use maps, trains and booking apps on the move. The eSIM joins the strongest partner network automatically, so you do not need to compare carriers yourself.
Plan sizes run from 1 GB to 50 GB, with lengths of 7, 15 and 30 days. Prices are in US dollars and shown before payment, with nothing added at checkout.
Your phone works in Spain if it supports eSIM and is carrier free. Most recent iPhone, Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel models do. Check both points before you buy: eSIM support in the phone settings, and no carrier restriction on the handset. A phone that fails either check cannot use this eSIM.
Once installed, the eSIM sits alongside your normal SIM. Your own line stays active for incoming calls and bank texts, and the eSIM carries the data. This keeps two factor codes arriving while you use maps and messaging abroad.
The APN is set automatically on most phones. If data does not start after you land, turn on data roaming for the eSIM line. That single setting fixes most first connection problems.
Install the eSIM on Wi-Fi before your flight, then leave it switched off until you land. The QR code arrives by email in minutes after payment. Days start when the eSIM first connects in Spain, so installing early does not use up your plan. Setup takes a few minutes at home.
Keep the QR code email until the eSIM is installed, since you need it only once. After that, the eSIM lives in the phone and you can add data to it online without a new code.
Payment is straightforward: Apple Pay, Google Pay or a card your bank confirms. The price you see in US dollars is the price you pay, with nothing added at checkout.
Spain has 5G on Orange, Movistar, Vodafone and Yoigo, and your eSIM moves between them automatically. With 96 percent of people online and 130 mobile subscriptions per 100, the networks are built for heavy daily use. Set the eSIM up before departure and your phone should be online soon after landing.
