Is activating eSIMFlyer more convenient than buying a local SIM at Sal (SID) Airport, and is ID required?

Updated April 22, 2026

For ultimate convenience, especially after a long flight into Sal (SID) Airport, eSIMFlyer is a clear winner over purchasing a local physical SIM. Buying a 'chip' typically involves locating a potentially crowded CVMóvel or Unitel T+ kiosk, waiting in line, needing local currency (Escudos), and undergoing a mandatory passport registration. Our eSIM is entirely digital, activated pre-departure or upon landing with no queues, no currency exchange, and no ID registration. It's designed for the frequent flyer who values immediate, hassle-free connectivity.
