The nitty gritty
Guinea eSIM FAQs
Our Guinea travel eSIMs are purely data - no native voice or SMS services are included. If you need calling, use an internet - based app like WhatsApp or Skype over your data connection.
Of course. You can install your Guinea eSIM up to 30 days before departure. Once you arrive, it will activate automatically.
Installing early won’t use any data or start your plan until you arrive in Guinea.
If your iPhone shows an activation error during pre-install, you can ignore often it - refer to our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide for help.
No, our Guinea travel eSIMs do not include any phone number - they strictly provide internet data. For calls, use data - driven apps such as WhatsApp, Signal, or Facetime.
Your eSIM will activate automatically once you arrive in Guinea. We advise installing your Guinea Travel eSIM before you travel (installation is distinct from activation).
To install, just scan the QR code we send or install via the ZenSim app over WiFi. On landing in Guinea, the eSIM will switch on by itself.
If you have any problems, check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or contact us 😊
Once you arrive in Guinea, your eSIM activates automatically if it’s already installed.
If you install it after arriving, the eSIM will activate and begin working immediately.
For any setup or connection problems, refer to our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or contact our support.
If you want to avoid roaming headaches in Guinea, a travel eSIM is the smarter pick:
Big Savings: Our local Guinea eSIM data plans are priced for residents, not tourists who pay premium roaming costs.
Easy Plan Changes: Upgrade or downgrade your data allowance on the fly - no need for a new SIM.
Full Transparency: See your data usage in - app so you won’t run out unexpectedly or incur extra charges.
No, your plan only starts upon landing in Guinea. Installing beforehand ensures you’re ready to go as the activation will happen automatically.
You’ll need WiFi for installation, so do it before departure and this way you will be connected as soon as you arrive.
If you run into any issues, our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide can help, or contact us directly.

Other Inquiries: Have another issue? Head to our contact page and we’ll respond ASAP.
Most ZenSim eSIMs can be topped up directly inside the app. If you ever need extra data, additional days, or want to include a new destination on the same eSIM, the Zen Garden is where you can do it.
Simply log in, tap into the Zen Garden, and you’ll find the option to top up right there.
Available top ups: For Guinea, the top up plans are identical to the ones on the site, but you get a 10% discount.
Extending your stay: Planning to be away longer than 30 days? You can buy multiple top ups ahead of time. They activate one after another, so there’s no risk of replacing your current plan.
More than one country: Many eSIMs now let you attach extra countries through a top up. For example, while using a Europe eSIM you can add Singapore as an extra destination. It will activate automatically when you land in Singapore.
Once activated in Guinea, your eSIM typically won’t function outside that country.
If you're planning to hop between countries, we recommend checking out our regional Travel eSIMs - they’re made for multi-country use and cover most major regions.
You bet there is! Once you purchase an Guinea eSIM you will be able to access your unique referral URL which you can share with your travel buds.
If they click the URL and purchase a plan they will save A$5 on their order and you will receive a A$5 voucher on your account which will be automatically applied on your next purchase (provided they are a new customer of course).
You can track your referrals and access your referral URL in the ZenSim app. Check out our terms for more info.
Great question! Our Guinea unlimited plans come with a 3GB daily allowance, which is plenty for most travellers - the average person uses under 1GB a day.
If you do blow past that in a single day, your speed drops to 1Mbps until midnight, when your daily allowance resets and you're back to full speed.
If you're on a fixed-data plan instead (say 10GB or 20GB), there's no daily cap at all - use as much as you like until the plan runs out. We'll give you a heads up before that happens, and topping up is just a couple of taps away in the ZenSim app.
Your days and data don't start counting down the second you buy the eSIM - they only kick in once you actually land in Guinea, so feel free to install it well ahead of your trip.
As long as it's already installed, it'll auto-activate the moment you arrive, and that's when the clock starts on your plan.
As for when it ends - your plan runs until either your data or your days are used up, whichever happens first (unless you're unlimited, in which case it's just the days that matter). A 30-day plan means it ends 30 days from your arrival in Guinea, not 30 days from your purchase date.
Easy way to check - just run your phone through our eSIM compatibility checker and you'll know in seconds whether it'll work with our Guinea eSIM and networks.
Still not sure, or something looks off? Reach out to us and we'll sort it out. And if it turns out your phone genuinely can't run the eSIM, our refund policy has you covered with a full refund - so there's no risk in grabbing a plan and giving it a go.
We sure do - it's covered under our 100% money back guarantee.
Cancelled trip, incompatible phone, or your travel plans just changing - all of these situations qualify.
Check out our refund policy for the full details, but the bottom line is: if you can't install or use the eSIM, you'll get every cent back.
