How to buy an eSIM with crypto (USDT, USDC): step by step
Last updated: 29 October 2026
You can buy a travel eSIM with stablecoins in about five minutes: pick a plan, confirm your email, send the exact amount from any wallet or exchange, and the QR code arrives by email. No account, no ID, and $0.50 off every plan.
Which coins and networks you can use
We accept USDT (TRC-20, ERC-20), USDC (ERC-20). The network matters as much as the coin: send USDT on a network the invoice doesn't list and the payment can't be matched to your order.
| Coin | Network | Token standard |
|---|---|---|
| USDT | TRON | TRC-20 |
| USDT | Ethereum | ERC-20 |
| USDC | Ethereum | ERC-20 |
We don't take Bitcoin yet. If you only hold BTC, most exchanges will swap it for USDT in a minute, or you can pay by card.
Step by step
- Choose your plan. Find your destination (or a regional plan for multi-country trips) and pick the data amount and validity you need.
- Enter your email and choose Crypto. We send a 6-digit code to confirm the address, because that's where your eSIM is delivered. Nothing else is asked: no account, no name, no ID.
- Open the invoice. It shows the coins and networks, a QR code, a plain wallet address and the exact amount. The invoice stays open for 15 minutes.
- Send the exact amount on the right network. Scan the QR code with your wallet or copy the address. Check the network before you confirm.
- Get your eSIM. Once the network confirms the transfer, the order completes automatically. The QR code and install link arrive by email, usually within minutes, and are also on your private order page.
TRON or Ethereum?
Both work, and the price of the eSIM is the same. The difference is the network fee you pay to send the transaction:
- USDT on TRON (TRC-20) is usually the cheapest and fastest way to send stablecoins. It is the default on many exchanges and in wallets like TronLink and Trust Wallet.
- USDT or USDC on Ethereum (ERC-20) works from MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Coinbase Wallet and nearly every exchange. Ethereum network fees go up and down with demand, so for a small purchase TRON is often cheaper.
Paying from an exchange
You don't need a personal wallet: a withdrawal from Binance, OKX, Kraken, Coinbase or any other exchange works. Two things to watch:
- Pick the matching network on the withdrawal screen (TRC-20 or ERC-20), the same one you chose on the invoice.
- Make sure the full amount arrives. Some exchanges subtract their withdrawal fee from the amount you type. If yours does, add the fee on top so the invoice receives the exact amount it asks for.
Withdrawals sometimes sit in an exchange's queue for a while. If your payment lands after the 15-minute timer, it is still detected and the order is completed, usually within the hour. If your order page still says unpaid after that, open the live chat and paste your order link.
Why pay with crypto?
- It's cheaper. Crypto payments skip card processing fees, so every crypto order is $0.50 less than the same plan paid by card. The discount is applied automatically.
- It's private. We ask for an email address and nothing else. Read more in buying an eSIM without ID.
- It works from anywhere. No card, no bank, no foreign-transaction fees. If your card doesn't work abroad, your wallet still does.
