Common questions
Do I need the Atli app or an account to buy on WhatsApp?
No. The chat is the whole thing: you pick a plan, pay and install inside WhatsApp. If you'd rather use a website, you can also buy on HeyAtli.com.
How do I find Atli on WhatsApp?
Search for @atliesim in WhatsApp, or tap Buy on WhatsApp on this page and the chat opens on its own.
Does Atli speak my language?
Yes. Write to Atli in English, German, Spanish, French, Indonesian, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Vietnamese, Malay or Arabic, and Atli answers in the same language.
Can I buy from a computer, on WhatsApp Web?
Yes. Open the chat on WhatsApp Web or the desktop app, pick a plan and pay as usual. The eSIM goes on your phone: the same chat is on it too, so tap Install on iPhone or Install on Android there, or scan the QR code on your screen with your phone's camera.
How do I pay?
Atli sends you a secure checkout link in the chat. Pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay where available. Checkout runs on Stripe.
Is it safe to buy an eSIM on WhatsApp?
Yes. Card details never go through the chat: Atli sends a link to a secure checkout page run by Stripe, you pay there by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and only the eSIM comes back into WhatsApp.
What happens after I pay?
Atli confirms the payment in the chat and sends your eSIM with Install on iPhone and Install on Android buttons and a QR code. Install it on Wi-Fi. The plan waits until your phone connects at your destination, and you can open the eSIM again any time by typing wallet.
Does my phone support eSIM?
Most iPhone XS, XR and newer, Pixel 4 and newer, and Galaxy S20 and newer do, if the phone is unlocked. Check your exact model before you buy.
Does the eSIM come with a phone number?
No. Atli is data-only. Your own SIM keeps your number, calls and texts, and WhatsApp stays registered to that number.
When does the plan start?
When your phone first connects to a supported network in a destination the plan covers. Buying or installing the eSIM does not start it. A plan that has not started within 30 days of purchase expires.
Where do I find my QR code again?
Type wallet in the chat, open your eSIM and tap QR / Install. Deleting the chat does not remove your eSIMs or plans.
Can I check my data usage in WhatsApp?
Yes. Type check data and Atli shows data used, data left, days left and the expiry date for each plan. How much data do I have left?
What happens when my data runs out?
Buy another plan in the same chat: type check data and tap Buy another plan. It goes onto the same Atli eSIM, with no new QR code and no reinstall. If another plan that covers your destination is already on the eSIM, it can take over on its own.
Can I buy an eSIM for someone else on WhatsApp?
Yes. Choose a plan and tap 🎁 Share it at checkout. Atli gives you a claim code to send them, and they claim it in Atli on their own phone. Claiming does not start the plan.
Which destinations can I buy for?
200+ destinations, on local 4G/5G networks. Type the destination in the chat and Atli shows the plans that cover it: a plan for that destination, a regional plan, or Global.
How much data do I need?
Use the travel data calculator: set your days and what you do on your phone, and it sizes the plan.
Can I get a refund?
Refunds may be available for an eligible technical or network failure that Atli support cannot resolve. Type Talk to a human in the chat within 14 days of purchase. A change of mind, an incompatible or carrier-locked phone, or a plan that has already connected or used data are not covered. See Payments and refunds.
Can I just ask Atli a question on WhatsApp?
Yes. Ask about a destination, your phone or your plan before you buy anything, and Atli answers in the chat. For a person, type Talk to a human.
