Before you fly to Southeast Asia, ensure your mobile data is sorted with a travel eSIM. From Bangkok to Bali, connect the moment you land without the headache of roaming bills.
Built for short trips and long stays alike — if you fall into any of these, you're sorted.
SingTel provides robust coverage in Singapore's urban areas, while Telkomsel excels in Indonesia's rural regions. Both carriers offer reliable service in outdoor settings, though indoor reception may vary in dense concrete structures.
A rough guide to pick the right plan — your real usage depends on how much you stream and share.
Maps, messaging, email and the occasional search. Enough to stay oriented and in touch.
Social feeds, browsing, music and some video. The sweet spot for most travelers.
Video calls, lots of streaming and tethering your laptop or sharing a hotspot.

Roaming on your home carrier in this country gets expensive fast. A local SIM means broken Apple Wallet, hunting kiosks at the airport, and 30 minutes lost to a registration form. eSIM activates in the time it takes to find your hotel.
Pocket WiFi, roaming and airport SIM cards all work — here's how they stack up against an eSIM.
| Telekonek eSIM | Pocket WiFi | Roaming | Airport SIM | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Setup | Scan a QR code before you fly | Reserve, then collect and return a device | Already on your home plan | Queue at a kiosk after you land |
| Ready when you land | Yes — connects on arrival | Only after pick-up | Yes | After you find a counter |
| Keep your number | Yes | Yes | Yes | No — you swap out your SIM |
| Extra device to carry | No | Yes — a hotspot to charge | No | No |
| Typical cost | Low, prepaid up front | Daily rental, often a deposit | Usually the most expensive | Varies, often paid in cash |
| Multiple travelers | One eSIM each | Share one hotspot | Charged per line | One SIM each |
