Frequently Asked Questions

For Romanian Travelers Abroad

Will my Romanian phone number stay active for WhatsApp/Banking?
Yes. Cellesim acts as a secondary data line. Your primary Romanian SIM (Orange, Digi, Vodafone) stays active for calls and SMS. Your WhatsApp and banking apps remain tied to your original +40 number automatically.
Can I still receive Bank OTP SMS (BT Pay, George)?
Yes! As long as you keep your physical Romanian SIM enabled in your cellular settings, you can receive incoming SMS verification codes for BT Pay, George, or BRD while using Cellesim for high-speed data.
Is it cheaper than Orange or Digi roaming packs?
Absolutely. Outside the EU, local operators often charge high daily fees or excessive per-MB rates. Cellesim provides local rates, often saving you up to 90% on total data costs compared to standard international packs.
Can I share my internet (Hotspot) with others?
Yes! Unlike some competitors like Holafly, Cellesim eSIMs support data tethering/hotspots, making it perfect for sharing data with family or using your laptop during your trip.
Which countries are available and how fast is activation?
200+ countries. Popular: Turkey (15 RON), Egypt (16 RON), USA (22 RON), UK (18 RON), Italy (14 RON), UAE (20 RON), France (14 RON), Thailand (15 RON). Instant activation — QR code delivered immediately, install in under 3 minutes.
When should I install my eSIM before traveling?
Install 1–2 days before departure on home Wi-Fi in Romania. When you land, switch data line to Cellesim — connected instantly. See our interactive setup guide.
