The nitty gritty
Mauritius eSIM FAQs
Traditional calls and SMS aren’t part of our Mauritius eSIM packages - they’re strictly data provision. To talk or text, use internet - based services (WhatsApp, Signal, etc.) with your eSIM data.
Of course. You can install your Mauritius 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 Mauritius.
If your iPhone shows an activation error during pre-install, you can ignore often it - refer to our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide for help.
No, the Mauritius eSIM is data-only and excludes voice/SMS numbers. You’ll have to rely on data-based messaging platforms like WhatsApp or Telegram for calling.
Your eSIM will activate automatically once you arrive in Mauritius. We advise installing your Mauritius 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 Mauritius, the eSIM will switch on by itself.
If you have any problems, check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or contact us 😊
Once you arrive in Mauritius, 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.
Hands down, a travel eSIM beats roaming in Mauritius. Here’s why:
Cheaper Data: Pay local prices rather than roaming surcharges from your home network.
Instant Setup: No waiting for physical SIM delivery - your eSIM is ready the minute you land.
Full Expense Control: Track data usage and spending in - app, so you avoid surprise fees.
Data and plan days only kick in when you arrive in Mauritius. Installing earlier just prepares it for activation which happens automatically when you arrive in Mauritius.
Install over WiFi before your trip to get connected from the minute you touch down.
If you have trouble connecting, see our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or message us for assistance.
Yes - ZenSim’s eSIMs work in 200+ destinations, and Mauritius is included. For travellers needing multiple-country access, we offer regional eSIMs. You can find those on our Travel eSIMs page.
Network & Data Issues: If your eSIM is refusing to work, check out our eSIM troubleshooting guide. For personalized help, send us a message and we’ll jump on it.
Installation Queries: Need a walkthrough on how to install? View our eSIM install tutorial - or drop us a line via our contact form.
General Support: Have something else in mind? Reach out here and we’ll handle it swiftly.
Yep! 99% of our eSIMs can be topped up within the ZenSim app with just a couple of clicks. If you run out of data, need more days, or you even want to add a new destination to the same eSIM, you can do all of this in the top up section in the Zen Garden in the app.
Log into the app, navigate to the Zen Garden to find your Mauritius service, and you will see a button to up your eSIM right there.
Top up plan options: Mauritius top up plans are the same as the plans on the website except with a 10% discount!
Extending a long trip: If you're travelling to Mauritius for more than 30 days, you can add as many top ups as you need to your first eSIM to extend the days and data you have. Each top up will only take effect when the previous eSIM is expired so you can purchase the top ups any time you want without worrying about overwriting your existing plan.
Multi country top ups: You can now add multiple countries to most of our eSIMs via top up, so if you're in Europe for example and are stopping over in Dubai on the way home, you can add a Dubai top up to your Europe eSIM so you don't need to reinstall anything. Alternate country top ups will only activate when you arrive in the new country.
Your Mauritius eSIM is designed for use within Mauritius, so once it's been activated there, it won’t work in other countries.
If you're visiting multiple destinations, a better option might be one of our regional Travel eSIMs that cover entire regions like Europe or Asia.
You bet there is! Once you purchase an Mauritius 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 Mauritius 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 plan won't start using data or counting down days until you actually arrive in Mauritius - so there's zero risk in installing it early.
As long as you've already installed your eSIM, it'll automatically activate the moment you land, and that's when your days and data officially kick off.
From there, your eSIM expires when either your data or your days run out, whichever comes first (unless you're on an unlimited plan, in which case it's purely down to the days). So if you grab a 30-day plan, it'll run out 30 days after you arrive in Mauritius, not 30 days from when you bought it.
Simplest way is to pop your phone into our eSIM compatibility checker - it'll tell you straight away whether it's good to go with our Mauritius eSIM and the networks behind it.
If you're still unsure after that, get in touch with us and we'll help you figure it out. And just in case your phone isn't compatible after all, our refund policy means you'll get a full refund - so go ahead and grab a plan without the worry.
You're covered - our 100% money back guarantee exists for exactly this situation.
Trip cancelled? Phone not eSIM-compatible? Plans changed and you just don't need it anymore? All of these are covered.
The full details sit in our refund policy, but in short: if you can't install or use the eSIM, we'll give you a full refund. You shouldn't have to pay for something you can't use.

Top 3 things to do in Mauritius
Relax on the White Sands of Île aux Cerfs
One of Mauritius’ most breathtaking island escapes, Île aux Cerfs is a tropical paradise featuring pristine white-sand beaches, turquoise lagoons, and lush greenery. A short boat ride from the east coast, this island is ideal for swimming, snorkelling, and watersports. The shallow waters make it perfect for families, while adventure seekers can enjoy parasailing and speedboat rides. A visit isn’t complete without dining at one of the beachfront restaurants, serving fresh seafood and traditional Mauritian cuisine. Whether you're looking for adventure or relaxation, Île aux Cerfs is a must-visit.
Hike to the Summit of Le Morne Brabant
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Le Morne Brabant is one of Mauritius' most iconic landmarks. This majestic mountain, standing at 556 metres, offers panoramic views of the Indian Ocean and the surrounding coastline. The hike takes around 3-4 hours round-trip, with trails leading through lush forests and rocky paths. Historically, Le Morne was a refuge for escaped slaves, and today, it remains a symbol of freedom and resilience. Whether you're an experienced hiker or just looking for an unforgettable viewpoint, this trek is worth the effort.
Explore the Unique Landscape of Chamarel’s Seven Coloured Earths
One of Mauritius’ most unique natural wonders, Chamarel’s Seven Coloured Earths, is a surreal landscape of dune-like formations featuring shades of red, purple, blue, and yellow. The phenomenon is caused by volcanic minerals cooling at different temperatures, creating a mesmerising colour gradient. Nearby, you can visit the Chamarel Waterfall, one of the tallest in Mauritius, surrounded by lush tropical vegetation. A visit to Chamarel offers not only stunning scenery but also insight into Mauritius’ fascinating geological history.
