Frequently asked questions.
Answers to common setup and buying questions.
How do I decide between the Liberia eSIM plans?
Match the plan to your trip rather than the sticker price. At €15.59, the 250 MB option covers light messaging and lookups for 7 days when downloads stay on Wi-Fi. If your trip lasts 14 days, that's 2 weeks, and the 500 MB plan at €30.99 gives you 15 days of validity, covering those 2 weeks with a day to spare. The 1 GB plan at €61.79 runs for 30 days, close to one month but not always a calendar month. These recommendations assume light use; an affordable-looking price only pays off if the allowance lasts the whole stay.
What network does the Liberia eSIM connect to?
Listed networks: Lonestar Communications Corporation. Connects to 4G/LTE where available. 5G is not confirmed on this plan. Speeds and signal vary with your phone, location and network conditions.
Will my phone work with these eSIM plans?
Your phone needs eSIM support and must be network unlocked, whether it runs iOS or Android. Confirm the exact model and regional version in the compatibility guide. On an iPhone, open Settings, General, About and check that No SIM Restrictions appears next to Carrier Lock; an eSIM-capable iPhone can still be locked to a carrier.
What is the right time to install and activate the eSIM?
Install on a stable Wi-Fi connection and save the supplied instructions offline, including any QR code your setup uses. Follow the activation steps for your order; installing the profile and starting validity are not necessarily the same moment, so check when the clock begins. There is no instant installation guarantee, so add the profile before you fly rather than at the airport gate. In Liberia, enable the travel line and set it as your mobile data line.
Can I keep my regular number and still use messaging apps?
Keep your existing messaging-app account and let this eSIM carry its internet traffic. The plan has no standard calls, SMS or local number. A one-time code sent to your home number still routes through your regular SIM and carrier, so check what that line charges before you leave it switched on.
Is it possible to share the eSIM data with a laptop?
The listed networks support hotspot. Any device you connect draws from the same data allowance. Every connected device draws from the same total. Pause system updates, cloud backups and video downloads before you turn on tethering.
Does the data allowance refresh every day?
No. Each plan, 250 MB for 7 days, 500 MB for 15 days or 1 GB for 30 days, is a fixed total for its whole validity period. None of them is a one day or 1 day option; the shortest plan runs 7 days. The data is not unlimited, does not reset daily and is not a monthly subscription.
Can this plan be used outside Liberia?
These plans cover Liberia only; a shared operator name or regional branding does not add another country. Buy separate coverage for any onward destination or transit stop.
How can I add data or extend the validity?
You can buy another listed plan, but don't assume a new purchase extends the current validity or carries over unused data. Before you try to top up or reuse the profile, check the options and instructions in your order. A search for a no contract eSIM does not confirm renewal rules, so read the purchase terms.
What should I do if the eSIM won't connect?
Confirm you are in Liberia, the line is on and set as the mobile data line, and both data and validity remain. Apply the roaming and APN settings supplied for this plan to the travel line only. Toggle airplane mode briefly or restart the phone, and move elsewhere if the signal quality is weak. Keep the profile installed and contact support with your order reference, location and phone model if the service still fails.
How can I prevent roaming charges on my home SIM?
Turn off automatic mobile-data switching and keep data roaming disabled on your regular SIM. Apply any roaming setting this plan needs only on the travel eSIM. Standard calls and texts on your home line can still add cost.
What do I need to know about support and refunds?
Keep your order reference and installation details before asking for help. Read the purchase conditions for refund eligibility, especially after activation or any data use, and leave the eSIM installed while a connection issue is investigated.
