An eSIM is a chip that, unlike a conventional SIM card, is permanently integrated in the end device (e=embedded). This does not only eliminate the physical SIM card, but also enables more flexible and simpler mobile communications use .

No. An eSIM is the digital alternative to the conventional physical SIM card, while dual SIM describes the availability of two SIM slots in a smartphone. However, thanks to the eSIM, your smartphone automatically becomes a dual-SIM device because the SIM slot remains free for a physical SIM due to the chip already installed.
Since eSIM-capable smartphones usually also have a slot for SIM cards, they automatically become dual-SIM devices. For example, an active eSIM profile and an active physical SIM card in the slot can be used to make calls with two phone numbers (e.g., private and business) or to run the subscriptions for telephony and data via one of the SIMs each.
The same functions can be used with an eSIM as with a regular SIM card. The eSIM can be used with any eSIM-enabled device. Whether smartphone, tracker or tablet: more and more devices in Switzerland are eSIM-enabled. You can find a list of eSIM-compatible devices here.
If you have accidentally deleted your eSIM profile, you can load a new profile at any time via the customer portal. To do so, simply follow our Guidance in the Support Portal.
