Movistar eSIM for Chile

Can I get a Movistar eSIM for my trip?

About Movistar

Movistar is a major Chile mobile operator, with strong coverage across cities and popular travel destinations.

When you activate a JamboSim Chile eSIM, your phone connects to Movistar (or another supported local network) the moment you arrive, no app install, no manual APN setup. You keep your regular number on WhatsApp and iMessage while data runs on the local network.

Why travellers choose Movistar

Nationwide 5G / 4G LTE

Movistar operates a modern 5G network across Chile's major cities, with 4G LTE everywhere else.

Instant activation

Buy now, scan once, your Chile eSIM activates automatically when you land.

Travel-friendly coverage

Tested on the routes travellers actually use, airports, hotels, transit hubs and tourist districts.

Auto-connects via JamboSim

Your eSIM picks Movistar automatically where available, and falls back to other supported networks seamlessly.

Travelling to Chile from the UK, US or Ireland?

Most UK and US plans treat Chile as a rest-of-world destination, so data outside your bundle is billed per megabyte. A JamboSim eSIM on Movistar replaces that with one price you pay before you fly.

Cheaper than your home roaming

EE, Vodafone, O2 and Three, and in the US Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile, all charge a daily or per-MB rate for Chile. Your Movistar data runs on a local plan instead, with no bill shock when you get home.

No local SIM shop, no ID checks

Buying a Movistar SIM in Chile usually means a passport copy, a registration form and a queue at the airport. The eSIM is installed before departure and connects on landing.

English support, prices in GBP or USD

You pay in your own currency and our support team answers in English, seven days a week, including install help for Movistar.
