More and more travelers have been getting eSim for Spain, but what is an eSim? To put it simply, an eSim is just like a regular SIM card, except digital. This eSim can be downloaded onto a chip that is already in your cell phone. This allows operators to identify your device without having to provide you with one of their physical SIM cards. Additionally, cell phones that support eSim also have dual SIM provision, so you can keep your existing SIM card in your cell phone after you return from your trip.
Traveling to Spain
The process of planning a trip to Spain can feel rather daunting. The trip could often involve traveling to multiple destinations and locations, and hence, having a SIM card shouldn’t feel like a major concern right after you land. But with an eSim, you can do this right before you reach your destination.
There are several telecommunication companies in Spain that support eSim technology, and here’s a quick look at a few: Movistar Spain (Telefonica), Vodafone, Yoigo and Orange Spain. The services in the table are MNVOs of these companies.

Why get an eSim?
Getting an eSim for a trip can be very useful. The purchase and installation process is completely online and you can buy more data without having to go to a store. It not only saves you a bunch of time, but you can enjoy your trip to the fullest.
Moreover, this type of service won’t burn a hole in your pocket since it is much more cost-effective than the travel rates offered by Canadian mobile providers. In general, data roaming costs $15 per day and offers only a small amount of data.
