A peek into the revolution of SIM card to eSIM card
A peek into the revolution
eSIM is an innovation in the world of mobile technology where you do not need a physical SIM to unleash the power of a mobile network. Simply activate the eSIM on your device and get connected just like that, from the comfort of your home. With Jio eSIM, the experience is all the more instant, effortless, and seamless.
Benefits of Jio eSIM
No extra device for an additional number
Just activate your eSIM, and you get an additional phone number on your device. With that, you have separate business and personal numbers on the same phone.
A world of convenience at your fingertips
Allows quick and easy activation, offers dual SIM support, and enables seamless switch between your mobile numbers, all in a matter of a few taps.
It’s hassle-free, it’s stress-free, and it’s eco-friendly too
Since you don’t have to fetch a physical SIM card and stress over fixing it in the slot, eSIM not only saves time and effort but also reduces your carbon footprint.
Now convert your existing physical SIM to eSIM or transfer your Jio eSIM from one device to another via SMS.
Step 1: Raise eSIM activation request
SMS 'GETESIM<32 Digit EID><15 Digit IMEI>' to 199 from the device with an active Jio SIM. If your email ID is not updated, you'll get a reply asking to update it for reinitiating the process.
Step 2: Share eSIM number for eSIM processing
Type SIMCHG <19-digit eSIM number> and send the SMS to 199. After two hours, you will receive an update on eSIM processing.
Step 3: Confirm and activate eSIM
SMS ‘1’ to 183 to request an automated call from +91 2235072222. Press '1' on the call to confirm. After that, install 'Data plan' on your device to activate eSIM following the below steps.
Configure your device and get started
Key points to remember while activating Jio eSIM
Before you proceed to configure your phone, make sure your phone is connected to a mobile network or Wi-Fi.
Do not select the ‘Remove Data Plan’ or ‘Erase Plan’ option in device settings, as it will permanently delete the eSIM profile.
If it gets removed unknowingly or accidentally, visit your nearest Jio Store, Reliance Digital, or Jio retailer with Proof of Identity and a photograph for the SIM swap process.
The Activation Code is unique and is applicable for just one-time use on only one device.
