Yes. SultaNet, Merhaba and Anatolia include unlimited hotspot: you can share internet with other devices; usage comes out of the plan data. They are data only: they do not include a local number or regular calls, but WhatsApp still works with your usual number.

SultaNet offers per-GB and unlimited plans. On unlimited plans you get a daily high-speed allowance and then keep browsing at 384 Kbps until the next daily reset. Merhaba offers per-GB and unlimited plans. On unlimited plans you get a daily high-speed allowance and then keep browsing at 384 Kbps until the next daily reset. Anatolia offers per-GB and unlimited plans. On unlimited plans you get a daily high-speed allowance and then keep browsing at 384 Kbps until the next daily reset.

A per-GB plan suits a longer trip or light video use; unlimited is better if you use maps, social apps or hotspot a lot. Choose the plan on each product page that fits your trip to Turkey.

For maps and messaging over a few days, a small per-GB plan is usually enough. If you use social apps and some video, pick a larger plan or an unlimited option from SultaNet, Merhaba and Anatolia. If you upload photos or video every day, unlimited is the most comfortable choice.

Each product page lists the plans and their validity. If you still have questions, Lia can help you choose.

SultaNet connects to AVEA and Vodafone with 5G technology. Merhaba connects to Turk Telekom (AVEA) with 5G technology. Anatolia connects to AVEA, Vodafone and Turkcell with 5G technology. 5G depends on local coverage and on your phone being compatible; if there is no 5G, the network offers 4G where available.

The eSIMs cover Turkey only, including each network’s coverage in cities such as Ankara, Esmirna and Istanbul.

SultaNet and Anatolia are rechargeable: when the validity ends you can recharge from the link in the delivery email; you have up to 60 days to do it before the eSIM is deactivated.

Merhaba is not rechargeable: when the days or the data run out you buy a new eSIM. If your trip is long, choose a plan with more days from the start.

You get the QR instantly by email. Install it before you travel over Wi-Fi: up to 60 days ahead with SultaNet and Anatolia and up to 90 days ahead with Merhaba. Installing does not start the validity; the days count from the first connection to a network in Turkey.

Your usual SIM can stay in the phone. If there is an issue with the QR, there is a 72-hour guarantee.

Yes. Ankara, Esmirna and Istanbul are in Turkey, and the eSIMs cover them. They do not cover other countries.

If you also go to Greece, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Romania, Italy and Germany, a regional eSIM or an eSIM for that country is a better fit. Start with eSIM for Europe.
