Questions
What is the best eSIM for Canada?
For most trips, 5 GB for 30 days is enough: $9.39 here, against $18.00 at Airalo for the same data (read 3 Nov 2026). It is data only and needs no app: the QR code and a one-tap install link arrive by email. Every brand's price for Canada, dated and sourced, is on our comparison page.
Which Canada eSIM for a month?
Every one of these lasts 30 days: 3 GB $5.90, 5 GB $9.39, 10 GB $15.79, 20 GB $26.39, 50 GB $101.69. The 30 days start when the eSIM first connects to a network there, so you can buy before the trip.
Can I buy a Canada eSIM without an app?
Yes. You pay on this page and the QR code and a one-tap install link arrive by email: no app and no account. It is data only, with no phone number, so your home SIM keeps your calls and SMS.
Does the Canada eSIM come with a phone number?
No. It is data only: no local number, calls or SMS on this eSIM. Your home SIM stays in the phone for calls and texts (your carrier's roaming rates apply to them), and WhatsApp, FaceTime or Signal calls run over the eSIM's data. If you need a local number in Canada, for example for a service that texts a code, buy a local SIM there.
Which Canada eSIM for a week or two?
For 7 days: 1 GB $3.39. The 30-day packs cover one or two weeks too: 3 GB $5.90, 5 GB $9.39.
Will WhatsApp keep my number with a Canada eSIM?
Yes. WhatsApp stays on your home number: this eSIM is data only and has no number. Leave your home SIM in the phone with its data roaming off, use the Canada eSIM for mobile data, and do not re-register WhatsApp.
