Manage your plan

Do I need to delete my old eSIM to add a new one?

Quick answer

No. Most phones can store several eSIMs, and only one or two are on at a time. Just turn the old one off. Only delete an eSIM when its plan has fully ended and you are sure you will not need it again.

How many eSIMs can I keep?

iPhones can store eight or more eSIMs, and many Android phones can store several. You switch them on and off in your SIM settings.

When is it safe to delete?

  • The plan has ended, and you will not top it up.
  • You are not in the middle of a trip using it.

A deleted eSIM usually cannot be installed again, even with the same QR code.

Can I reuse an old Olysim eSIM for a new trip?

Often yes: if it is still on your phone, you may be able to top it up for the same country or region. Open the Olysim app to see your options.
