Choose your France plan

Choose by trip length, expected usage and total budget. Premium can suit heavy or uneven usage without a daily reset; Plus offers a daily allowance instead. A larger pool is not automatically the right choice for light use. Confirm Premium hotspot permission and sharing limits before relying on laptop connectivity.

Prices may change. Always check the product page for the latest prices before purchasing.

Compare selectable plan types

Standard Unlimited options are Lite. Only Lite, Essential and Plus high-speed allowances refresh daily. Premium uses one whole-plan pool. Unlimited does not mean unrestricted high-speed data. Fixed plans end when their allowance or validity runs out, whichever comes first. Premium is distinct from Plus.

Need help choosing?

Use Shop with AI on the AloOui website or app. Share your route, dates, expected use and budget, and say whether laptop hotspot is essential. Review the selected coverage, allowance and current price before checkout.

France networks and coverage

The listed networks are Orange France, Bouygues and Free Mobile. The country-level provider reference lists 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G for Orange France and Free Mobile, with Bouygues technology unspecified. Premium entries include those generations for Orange France and Free Mobile; fixed and daily Unlimited entries leave exact technology unspecified. Country-level listings do not establish every package's technology entitlement. Access and speeds depend on your selected plan, device, supported partner and location; 5G is not guaranteed.

Do not assume Monaco, neighboring countries or overseas destinations such as Réunion, Guadeloupe or Martinique are included. Confirm each destination before purchase.

Train travel, Alpine stays and countryside drives

Save tickets, maps and accommodation details offline before leaving reliable reception. Signal varies on rural rail routes, in tunnels, Alpine valleys and countryside roads. France coverage does not guarantee reception at every village, chalet or beach. Ask support if connectivity at a specific property is essential. Satellite and maritime networks are not included.

Hotspot and keeping your existing number

Hotspot depends on the selected plan, device and network, using the same allowance and speed limits. Premium-specific hotspot permission and limits are not established by the stored plan specifications; confirm with support before relying on laptop sharing.

This eSIM has no French number, ordinary calls or SMS. Internet calling and messaging depend on data connectivity and app availability. You can keep your home SIM where your device supports it; check its roaming charges, turn off its data roaming and avoid unwanted automatic data switching.

Compatibility, installation and activation

1. Check your exact device model and regional version support eSIM and that the device is carrier-unlocked.
2. Install the emailed QR code over stable Wi-Fi through your cellular or SIM settings, following your order's instructions. Keep the QR private.
3. When ready in France, enable AloOui, select it for mobile data and turn on data roaming for that line.

Validity starts when the eSIM connects to a supported network in France, not installation alone. If already in France, connecting can start the plan. Follow your purchased option's activation deadline, expiry and top-up instructions; these are separate from package duration.

APN, troubleshooting and 24/7 human support

1. Confirm AloOui is enabled, selected for mobile data and has data roaming on.
2. If an APN is required, set it to data.esim, leaving username and password blank. Save/select it; some devices configure this automatically. Follow your order if its settings differ.
3. Toggle airplane mode briefly or restart.
4. Start with automatic network selection. If needed, select a supported partner for your purchased plan and move to a stronger-signal area.
5. Check remaining data and validity. Keep the eSIM installed while troubleshooting.

Ask support before deleting the profile, changing devices or rescanning the QR code; do not assume transfer, reinstallation or QR reuse is supported.

AloOui provides 24/7 human customer support through the Help Center. Share your order number, device model, location and error screenshots privately.

Compare the separate Europe+ eSIM or Europe Extra eSIM, both including France. Check every destination, allowance, validity and current price. A France-only package does not become regional when you cross a border.

France eSIM FAQs

What is the lowest-priced package?
Fixed 1GB/7 days costs $3.03 USD. It is 1GB total, not a daily allowance.

Is Premium the same as Plus?
No. Plus gives 2GB/day high-speed, then up to 2 Mbps. Premium gives 30GB/5 days, 60GB/10 days or 90GB/15 days for the whole plan, then up to 2 Mbps, without a daily reset.

When does validity start?
When the eSIM connects to a supported network in France, not simply on installation.

Does it include a French number, calls or SMS?
No. It is data-only. Internet calls and messages use your allowance.

Can I use hotspot with Premium?
Confirm permission and sharing limits for your exact Premium option with support before relying on laptop connectivity. Where permitted, sharing uses the same allowance.

Does France coverage include neighboring countries or overseas territories?
Do not assume so. Only France is listed; confirm each other destination separately before purchase.
