Easy Setup
Install your tukango eSIM in one tap!
When you buy an eSIM from tukango, we send you an automatic install link via email and SMS. Just tap the link on your phone and the eSIM installs itself — no QR code scanning needed.
Prefer manual setup? Follow the guide below.
Your eSIM is installed but your data plan doesn't start until you actually connect to a network at your destination. Here's exactly what to do the moment your plane lands.
The 2-minute landing routine
1
Wait for the plane to taxi
Don't rush. Most carriers don't allow phone use until you're at the gate. Use the wait to take your phone off airplane mode.
2
Turn off airplane mode
Swipe down from the top of the screen and tap the airplane icon. Your phone immediately starts looking for networks.
