22SIM Connect or 22SIM Web? Which one fits the way you travel
In short
Choose 22SIM Connect if you travel often and want one eSIM you top up from the app for every trip. Choose 22SIM Web if you have a single trip and want to buy your eSIM straight from your browser without downloading an app.
22SIM offers two products for two different ways of traveling. Both are eSIMs that give you internet at your destination and work alongside your original number, but they differ in how you buy and manage them, and in what happens on your next trip.
For frequent travelers
22SIM Connect: for frequent travelers
You install the Connect eSIM once, then manage and top up your plans from the 22SIM Connect app whenever you travel. It offers local, regional and global plans, with fixed data or unlimited internet, plus in-app support chat.
For a single trip
22SIM Web: for a single trip
You choose your destination and buy the plan straight from your browser, and you get a QR code instantly to install the eSIM without downloading any app. It suits people who travel once or twice a year, or who want a quick decision before a trip.
