The idea is simple. You already pay for train tickets, dinners and hotel rooms in your own currency, so your eSIM should be just as easy. That is why the site shows euros to travellers in Europe and pounds to travellers in the UK, and lets you pay through PayPal, the checkout most of us already trust 🐼. And the price you see on the page is the price you pay: nothing for your bank to convert, no surprise on your statement.
Can I pay for an eSIM in euros (EUR)?
Yes. With the currency set to euros (EUR), every price on Gigapanda shows in euros and checkout runs through PayPal: your PayPal account or a card, with no account needed for the card. Open the site from anywhere in the eurozone and it switches to EUR on its own. Pay, come back to our confirmation page, and the eSIM is on its way to your inbox.
Can I pay for an eSIM in British pounds (GBP)?
Yes. Open the site from the UK, or choose GBP in the menu, and prices switch to pounds sterling (GBP). You pay through PayPal, with your account or with a card, and there is nothing for your bank to convert. Travelling inside Europe from the UK? The Europe eSIM is priced in pounds too.
Do I need a PayPal account to pay by card?
No. At checkout you get the PayPal button and, right below it, a card button that opens PayPal’s card form. You pay as a guest with any credit or debit card. Prefer US dollars (USD)? Pick USD in the menu and you get PayPal and card as before.
Where to use it
Pick your destination and the price is already in your currency: eSIM for the USA, eSIM for Thailand, eSIM for Japan, eSIM for Turkey or eSIM for Mexico. Every destination in the shop follows the currency you choose, and discount codes work the same in EUR, GBP and USD.
eSIM payment methods in Latin America: PEN, COP, ARS and BRL
The same update brought the payment methods people use every day across the region: Peruvian soles (PEN) with Yape or card, Colombian pesos (COP) with PSE, Bre-B, Daviplata or Bancolombia, Argentine pesos (ARS) by interoperable QR with Mercado Pago, MODO or a bank app and by CVU transfer, and Brazilian reais (BRL) with PIX. Wherever you are, you pay in your own currency with the tools you already use.
Selling with Gigapanda, or managing travel for a team?
This is for you too. Your customers or your colleagues pay with what they already have at hand, in their own currency, and you never have to explain a charge in dollars or an exchange rate. Simpler for them, tidier for you.
If your favourite way to pay is still missing, tell us in the site chat. The next ones get picked from what you ask for.
