Coverage & network in Gibraltar
Data in Gibraltar without the roaming bill: buy the plan now, scan the QR code once, and the profile sits dormant on your phone until you arrive.
Plans run from $7.50 for 1 GB over 7 days up to $57 for 20 GB over 30 days. If you’re working while you travel, start at 10 GB — a video call burns roughly 1 GB an hour on its own.
5G is live in Gibraltar, and the eSIM will use it wherever your handset and the network both support it. Away from the cities you’ll drop to 4G/LTE, which is what most of the country actually runs on. Tethering is allowed on every Gibraltar plan, so a laptop or a travelling companion can share the connection.
Crossing borders on the same trip? The Europe plan covers 47 destinations on one profile from $7.50. Otherwise there are separate plans for Switzerland from $6.50, Turkey from $6.50 and Ukraine from $6.50.
How to install it
- 1
Buy in a minute
Pick a Gibraltar plan and pay. Your QR code arrives by email in seconds — no account, no shipping.
- 2
Install on Wi-Fi
Scan the code before you fly. The profile sits alongside your normal SIM and stays switched off until you need it.
- 3
Land connected
Turn on data roaming for the TravelNet line when you arrive. The plan starts counting down on that first connection, not at checkout.
Will my phone work?
You need an eSIM-capable, carrier-unlocked phone: an iPhone XS or newer, a Pixel 3 or
newer, or a recent Samsung Galaxy S, Z or A-series flagship. Dial *#06# — if
an EID number is listed alongside the IMEI, the phone has an eSIM.
Travelling beyond Gibraltar?
One Europe plan covers 47 countries from $7.50 — worth it from the third border.
Gibraltar eSIM questions
Which network does the Gibraltar eSIM use?
Gibtelecom. It is one of Gibraltar's main mobile networks, so coverage matches what local subscribers get rather than a thin roaming-only footprint.
Will I get 5G in Gibraltar?
Yes, where Gibtelecom has deployed it and your phone supports it. Outside those areas the eSIM falls back to 4G/LTE automatically — you won't need to change any setting.
How much data do I actually need for Gibraltar?
As a rough guide: navigation and messaging burn around 100–200 MB a day, social media roughly 500 MB an hour, and video calls about 1 GB an hour. A short trip fits inside the 3 GB plan ($15); a fortnight of heavier use is closer to 10 GB ($34.50).
When does my Gibraltar plan start counting down?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in Gibraltar, not when you buy it. Install it at home a day or two before you fly — the 1 GB plan then gives you 7 days from arrival and the larger plans 30 days.
Can I use my Gibraltar eSIM as a hotspot?
Yes. Tethering is enabled on every Gibraltar plan, so you can share the connection with a laptop, a tablet or someone travelling with you. Hotspot data comes out of the same allowance.
Can I keep my own phone number while I'm in Gibraltar?
Yes — that's the main reason to use an eSIM rather than a local SIM. Your home line stays active for calls, SMS and two-factor codes; the Gibraltar eSIM sits alongside it as a data-only line. Leave data roaming off for your home line to avoid a surprise bill.
Do I need to register or show a passport to use a Gibraltar eSIM?
No. The plan roams on a partner network, so there's no local SIM registration, no ID upload and no shop visit. You buy it, scan the QR code, and it works on arrival.
What happens if I run out of data in Gibraltar?
You can top up from the same page — buy another Gibraltar plan and it queues behind the current one on the same eSIM profile. There's no need to reinstall anything or scan a second QR code.
I'm also visiting Switzerland and Turkey — do I need separate eSIMs?
Not necessarily. The Europe plan covers 47 destinations including Gibraltar on a single profile from $7.50. If Gibraltar is the bulk of the trip, a country plan plus a top-up is usually cheaper; if you're crossing several borders, the regional plan wins.
Will my phone work with a Gibraltar eSIM?
If it's an iPhone XS or newer, a Pixel 3 or newer, or a recent Samsung Galaxy S, Z or A-series flagship, almost certainly — and it must be carrier-unlocked. Dial *#06# and look for an EID number: if one is listed, the phone has an eSIM. Our compatibility list has the full set.
