From airport kiosk to eSIM app

Killian Whelan founded Sim Local in 2011 with a shop in Dublin Airport selling local SIM cards to arriving travellers. Heathrow followed in 2012, then more Heathrow terminals, vending machines at Gatwick, a WHSmith supply deal for UK airport stores, and stores in Athens and Brussels. The same business now sells mostly eSIMs, online and through its app, and says it has served 4 million customers. It is Sim Local (Ireland) Ltd, run from Dublin and London.

The networks you actually join

The difference from generic eSIM resellers is the operator name on your screen:

• Orange — regional plans across Europe and Global plans.
• Lycamobile — the USA, the UK, Ireland, France, Portugal, Sweden and the Netherlands.
• AU — Japan, with unlimited 4G and 5G.
• True — Thailand.
• MobiFone — Vietnam.
• Digicel — the Caribbean.
• EE and Three — for visitors to the UK; Three's plans also roam in 70+ destinations.

Sim Local claims to offer the top network in more countries than any competitor.

Who it suits

A week in Spain with maps and streaming: the 10GB plan. A rail trip through several countries: the Europe plan. Japan: AU unlimited. Anyone collecting relatives at Heathrow: a UK EE or Three eSIM for them from £10.

Setting up before you fly

1. Check your phone supports eSIM and is unlocked — Sim Local keeps a list of compatible handsets and a guide to unlocking.
2. Buy through https://topreferrals.co.uk/go/sim-local after switching the currency to £ GBP.
3. Install with one tap in the Sim Local app, ideally at home on Wi-Fi.
4. Keep your UK SIM switched on for calls and texts if you like, and set the Sim Local line as your mobile-data line.
5. On landing, turn on data roaming for the Sim Local line; it joins the local network straight away.

Choosing the right size

• 3–5GB: maps, messaging and light browsing on a short break.
• 10GB: a week of normal use including some video and social media.
• 20GB and above: longer trips, hotspotting a laptop, or heavy streaming.
• Unlimited: full-speed allowance of 5GB or 10GB every day, then continued data at a slower speed — useful for remote work abroad.

Why an eSIM beats roaming

Sim Local puts its plans at about 10% of typical roaming costs. Pay-as-you-go roaming charges from UK networks add up quickly outside Europe especially, while a prepaid eSIM fixes the cost before you leave and cannot run up a bill.

One eSIM, several countries

For a trip that crosses borders, the Europe plan covers the region on one eSIM, and Global plans stretch further — 12GB for 30 days is £15.00, 20GB for 31 days £25.75 and 100GB for 31 days £68.75. Visitors arriving in the UK who continue to the Continent can use a Three eSIM, whose UK data also roams across 70+ destinations.
