eSIM for Business Travelers
Corporate roaming bills are unpredictable and expensive. A travel eSIM gives you a fixed cost per trip, keeps your work number active, and eliminates roaming surprises.
The problem with corporate roaming plans
Most business roaming plans charge $10–$15/day for a data "pass" — often with speed limits and fair-use caps buried in the fine print. A two-week trip to Japan or Europe costs $140–$210 in roaming charges before you factor in calls. A travel eSIM for the same trip costs $15–$30 with full LTE speeds.
Setting up dual SIM for business travel
- 1Keep your work SIM in the phone — calls, SMS, and corporate apps continue to use your work number.
- 2Install the travel eSIM for data — browsing, email, Teams/Slack all route through the cheaper eSIM data.
- 3Set travel eSIM as Cellular Data. Set work SIM as Default Voice.
- 4Enable Wi-Fi Calling on your work SIM — this routes work calls over your eSIM data for clearer international call quality.
- 5Disable data roaming on your work SIM — prevents the corporate SIM from accidentally using data at roaming rates.
Expensing eSIM plans
LTE.app purchases include a receipt and order confirmation suitable for expense reports. For Premium members, LTE.app provides a monthly statement of all purchases. The per-trip cost of an eSIM plan is categorizable as "communications" or "IT expenses" in most corporate expense systems.
Multi-country business trips
- 1Europe trip visiting multiple countries: buy one Europe eSIM plan — covers all EU countries, UK, and Switzerland on one plan.
- 2Asia Pacific trip (Japan + South Korea + Singapore): buy separate plans per country, or a Southeast/Northeast Asia regional plan.
- 3No new QR needed for each country: purchase additional plans through the LTE.app and they activate on your existing eSIM profile.
