eSIM plans with calls & texts
Some destinations offer plans that include a local phone number, minutes, and SMS alongside your data. Perfect when you need to make or receive local calls.
How it works
When you buy a calls & texts plan, you get a local number in your destination country. You can make and receive local calls and send SMS using your included minutes and texts. Data works the same as any other Jelly eSIM.
Good to know
- Calls and texts are for local use within the destination country.
- Incoming calls deduct from your minutes balance.
- International calls from the eSIM number are not included.

Calls & texts questions
- Can I receive calls on the eSIM local number?
- Yes. Your plan includes a local number that can receive incoming calls. Both incoming and outgoing local calls deduct from your included minutes balance. Share the number with hotel front desks, local businesses, or ride-hailing apps that require a local callback number.
- Can I call home from the eSIM number?
- International calls from the local eSIM number are not included in the plan and may incur additional charges depending on the carrier. For calling home, use a Wi-Fi calling app like WhatsApp or FaceTime over your eSIM data instead, which costs only data.
- What is the difference between a data-only plan and a calls & texts plan?
- A data-only plan provides mobile internet without a phone number. A calls and texts plan adds a local number, voice minutes, and SMS. Choose data-only if you only need maps, messaging apps, and browsing. Choose calls and texts if you need to make or receive traditional phone calls in the destination country.
