Keep your home phone number while using Bird eSIM for mobile data.
Travelers and remote staff do not need to give up their primary phone number to get affordable mobile data abroad. On a compatible dual-SIM phone, your existing number stays with your home carrier for voice calls and SMS verification codes while a Bird eSIM handles mobile data. Bird eSIM provisions a separate data profile rather than porting phone numbers or importing existing carrier lines.

Verify dual-SIM support and destination coverage before checkout.
Confirm that the handset supports eSIM, is carrier-unlocked, and can keep two lines active at the same time. Match the package’s covered countries, gigabyte allowance, and validity window to the full trip itinerary.
Check the exact handset variant and carrier lock
eSIM and dual-SIM support vary by exact device model and country of purchase. Confirm in device settings that carrier restrictions are unlocked so the phone accepts a secondary data profile alongside your home SIM.
Keep your primary SIM active for calls and texts
Your phone number remains with your home carrier. Leave that line turned on if you want to receive calls and two-factor SMS texts while traveling, and check your home carrier’s voice and messaging roaming rates before departure.
Datenleitung einrichten
Install a dedicated data profile and assign each line’s role.
Once your order fulfills, open the private installation link while connected to Wi-Fi. Add the Bird eSIM to the phone and give it a clear label such as Travel Data so you can tell your two lines apart at a glance.
Install via one-tap setup, QR code, or manual entry
Tap Install on this phone on supported iPhones and Android devices, scan the QR code from a second screen, or copy the manual activation fields. Apply the roaming toggle and APN settings shown on the setup page.
Route mobile data to Bird and voice to your home SIM
In your phone’s cellular settings, keep your primary line selected for voice calls and SMS, and select the Bird eSIM for mobile data. Even if the device displays a technical number on the eSIM profile, Bird travel packages provide mobile data rather than ordinary voice or SMS.
Verbindung prüfen
Verify mobile data on arrival and manage top-ups between trips.
After arriving in a covered destination, select the Bird eSIM for mobile data, turn off Wi-Fi briefly, and load a webpage to confirm live network service. Installing the profile before takeoff prepares the handset, while network connectivity begins at a covered destination.
Track activation rules and reported gigabytes
Check whether your package validity starts on installation or first network connection, and inspect remaining gigabytes alongside the latest carrier report timestamp in Bird.
Add compatible top-ups or cancel recurring renewals
Query compatible top-up offers to add more data to the installed eSIM without scanning a new QR code. If you enrolled in automatic renewal, cancel future billing cycles in Bird when the trip ends, since deleting a profile on the phone does not stop a subscription.
