“I used Jetpac eSIM in Bali. It worked perfectly, but outside of Bali, the network speed decreased significantly. Otherwise, the experience was smooth. If you plan your trip outside of Bali for most of the time, then you should consider something else.”

“Their eSIM works on the 3 (Tri) network, which isn’t as strong as TSEL but offered mostly decent coverage. Speeds were solid, with latency under 100ms (better than I expected). Not much to complain about. Can recommend.”

“Worked great 95% of the time. Speeds were 100+mbps in most areas in all the countries I visited. Ping was around 60-200ms.
Two downsides:
1. ChatGPT or apps blocked in Hongkong do not work anymore without VPN
2. In very crowded places internet would slow down a lot”

“I used it only for a few days, but it worked without any issues. The signal was consistently available, and I was able to use Personal Hotspot to share data with my laptop, which was really convenient. However, the price is definitely not on the cheap side. Without the promo code discount, it wouldn't have been my first choice.”

“Used Jetpac eSIM for my trip to Bali because it was pretty good price during a sale.
Although the IP address was from the US, the internet breakout was in Singapore.
I wouldn't say the connection quality was exceptionally good, but it was decent enough without any major inconveniences, so it certainly passed the test.

While in Bali, it connected to Tri (3) network, and the signal was generally fine. If the price is more or less the same or cheaper, I might consider using it again for my next trip.”

“We went on a round-trip in Bali. Installation of the eSim was easy and network coverage and speed were excellent everywhere”

“Attention, a payment gateway fee will be charged in addition to the displayed price, but the amount will not be displayed anywhere when paying by credit card! This is illegal, it is not allowed to charge more than indicated and you can therefore request a charge back from the credit card company. In my case, the surcharge was 38%! The app is also terrible, you can't see how much data volume is left. Avoid this dubious company!”

“Just bought esim. It installed successfully, but the is “no service” tag. Support for not answering, pulling me constant automatic texts in WhatsApp.
I noticed in the Airalo app that traffic I just bought aka “my package” is “not active”. There is explanations or guide on how to “activate” the paid and installed esim.”

“Tried their Smart Traveller eSIM and it worked great! It connects to Digi in Malaysia, and XL in Indonesia. Both 4G. It roams via Thailand but decent speed, no trouble at all. Tethering worked too. No fancy app or anything but it just works.”

“It worked really well for my trip to Jakarta. You just need to change APN and turn on data roaming, then it connects to XL or Indosat 4G in Indonesia. Speed is good and stable, ping is acceptable (it roams through Singapore). Overall good experience. Recommended.”

Indonesia Travel eSIM FAQ

Everything you need to know about using eSIMs in Indonesia

How many travel eSIM brands (providers) are available for use in Indonesia, and how many prepaid data plans are there?

There are more than 170 travel eSIM providers and over 11, 400 prepaid data plans available for Indonesia, giving travelers a wide variety of options to suit their needs.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Indonesia?

Yes, multiple eSIM providers offer unlimited data plans for Indonesia. All of the unlimited plans come with a daily validity period that ranges from one to thirty days, and the bulk of them operate on 5G networks. Most plans allow tethering, but the data speed is typically subject to throttling after a certain usage threshold has been reached. A few plans specify explicit speed limits: Giga.Tel caps the speed at 10 Mbps, Earth Esim includes options that limit speeds to 5 Mbps or 10 Mbps, and Ohayu limits speeds to 1 Mbps. Prices for the unlimited bundles span from approximately $2.34 USD (the lowest entry by abesteSIM) up to $35.90 USD (the highest entry by EtravelSIM), offering a price range of roughly $2 to $36.

What are the major mobile networks available for a travel eSIM in Indonesia?

Indonesia's mobile telecommunications sector is served by several major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs):

Telkomsel: The largest mobile network operator in Indonesia, offering extensive coverage and a wide range of services, including 4G and 5G networks.
Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison: Formed from the merger of Indosat Ooredoo and Hutchison 3 Indonesia, this operator provides mobile voice and data services, focusing on expanding their 4G and 5G network infrastructure.
XLSmart: A joint venture between Axiata Group and Sinar Mas, resulting from the merger of XL Axiata and Smartfren, offering a broad spectrum of telecommunications services, including mobile and fixed-line offerings, with a focus on enhancing digital experiences.

In Indonesia, Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) are not prevalent. Most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of the major MNOs listed above.

Can I get a travel eSIM with a phone number and SMS for Indonesia?

Yes, several providers offer travel eSIMs that give you a phone number and full SMS support while you are in Indonesia. Providers such as Airhub and RedEx eSIM deliver a local Indonesian number (dialing code +62) and allow inbound and outbound calls and SMS. Other vendors, including GlobaleSIM, EtravelSIM, and Orange Travel, also supply a phone number and SMS capability; however, those numbers come from other countries (dialing codes +1, +48, +33, +44, etc.) and are not local Indonesia numbers. Prices for day‑long plans start at about $4.00 USD, and larger data packages up to 100 GB or more can be purchased for several hundred dollars, with validity periods ranging from a few days to a year. Travelers can choose the option that best matches the need for a local Indonesian contact number or a foreign number that still provides voice and SMS.
