GlobaleSIM for AI Agents

Travel eSIMs your AI assistant can find and recommend

5.031 plans across 182 destinations in one machine-readable catalog. An agent matches the trip, hands over a checkout link with the exact option preselected, and the traveler reviews and pays here.

The Global eSIM covers 148 countries on one plan; every other destination is served by a local or regional plan. The catalog lists both coverage sets explicitly.

Using ChatGPT, Claude or another assistant?

Paste this prompt, fill in your trip, and your assistant will pick the right plan from our live catalog:

I'm traveling to {destinations} for {days} days and need about {GB} GB of data. Fetch https://globalesim.app/pt/api/agent-catalog (JSON, no auth) and follow its matching_rule: recommend a plan only if its coverage includes ALL my destinations. Give me the plan's checkout_url and a one-line summary of price, data, validity, and exactly what voice/SMS is included.

Find a plan

This search runs on the same public catalog agents use — same data, same matching rule, same links.

Add every country you will visit — one plan must cover them all.

How a purchase works

  1. The agent finds the plan

    It fetches the catalog, applies the matching rule, and picks the plan that covers the whole trip.

  2. The traveler opens the link

    The checkout link opens the product page with the exact data size and voice option already selected — on any device.

  3. Review, pay, install

    The traveler confirms the details and pays on globalesim.app. The eSIM QR code and installation steps arrive by email.

Field reference

coverage_summary
Top level. The two coverage sets: global_esim (destinations of the Global eSIM) and local_or_regional_only (destinations served only by a local or regional plan), plus the full union.
matching_rule
Top level. The rule to follow: recommend a product only if ALL requested destinations are in its coverage list.
coverage
Per product. ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes the product serves. A traveler's whole trip must fit this list.

Frequently asked questions

When does the plan validity start?

Validity starts when the eSIM first connects to a supported network at your destination — not at purchase. You can buy ahead of your trip and install the eSIM before you fly.

When do I install and activate the eSIM?

Installation instructions and a QR code arrive by email right after payment. Install the eSIM while you still have internet access (for example at home or on hotel Wi-Fi), then enable it when you arrive at your destination.

Can I top up a plan?

Yes. Existing eSIMs can be topped up with more data from the top-up page — no new eSIM installation needed.

Does my phone need to support eSIM?

Yes. Your device must be eSIM-compatible and carrier-unlocked. Most recent iPhone, Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel models qualify — see the installation guides for the full device list and setup steps.

What exactly do voice minutes and SMS include?

Plans with voice minutes include a dedicated US (+1) or UK (+44) VoIP phone number, and calls are made through the GlobaleSIM app rather than the device's standard dialer. SMS on that number is receive-only, and receiving verification codes is not guaranteed for every service. Plans with 0 minutes are data-only: no calls, no SMS, no phone number. Every plan in the catalog states this explicitly in its voice_minutes and sms fields.

Can an AI agent complete the payment?

No — by design. The agent finds the plan and hands over a checkout link; the traveler reviews the exact plan, price and terms on globalesim.app and pays there. Installation instructions are emailed after payment.
