Where to find your real activation code

Your code is unique to your eSIM. It is never shown on this page unless you arrive from your delivery email.

  • Your delivery email

    Subject "Your eSIM is Ready!" — contains your QR code, activation code and one-tap install links.

  • My eSIMs

    Sign in with your purchase email to see the QR code and activation code for every eSIM you own.

  • Your order page

    The confirmation page you landed on right after checkout also shows the full install details.

Manual Activation Code

For when scanning is not available

Example only — this is not your code

LPA:1$rsp.cosim.io$EXAMPLE123456789
Fixed prefix
LPA:1$
Server address
rsp.cosim.io
Your unique code
EXAMPLE123456789

Every eSIM has its own code. Yours ends in different characters and cannot be copied from this page.

Important Notes

  • eSIM can only be installed once - do not delete it
  • Internet connection required for installation (WiFi or mobile data)
  • Ensure your phone is unlocked and eSIM-compatible
  • Some eSIMs must be activated before a certain date - check validity period
