Local know-how

What to know before you land in Greece

Coverage and networks

Greece is served by Cosmote, Vodafone Greece and Nova. Cosmote generally leads on island and ferry-route coverage; all three are dependable in Athens, Thessaloniki and the major Cyclades. Your plan card names the network before you pay.

Landing and activation

Install over Wi-Fi before the trip and switch on at Athens airport or your island port. On ferries, expect coverage to dip mid-crossing and return near the coasts.

Which plan fits your trip

Island hopping for a week fits in 5 GB if you lean on hotel Wi-Fi, 10 GB if you navigate and upload freely. Visiting Türkiye or the Balkans on the same trip is exactly what the regional bundles are for.

Install in three steps

Set up your Greece eSIM in under a minute

  1. 1

    Buy the plan and get your QR code

    Pay once with card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or crypto. The activation QR arrives in your dashboard and email within seconds.

  2. 2

    Scan the QR from your phone settings

    On iPhone: Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM → Use QR Code. On Android: Settings → Network → SIMs → + → Use QR code. Or open the GetSim app and tap install, no QR scanning needed.

  3. 3

    Land, switch it on

    Set the GetSim eSIM as your default for cellular data. Your home SIM keeps handling calls and 2FA SMS in the background.

Your real number stays online. The eSIM only handles data. Calls, SMS, banking 2FA all keep arriving on your home SIM.
Crossing borders?

Going to more than just Greece?

A regional bundle covers Greece and 195+ other countries on a single eSIM, often cheaper than buying separate single-country plans for a multi-stop trip.

Frequently asked about Greece eSIMs

Yes. The GetSim eSIM installs as a second profile on your phone. Your home SIM and number stay active for calls and SMS. Set the GetSim eSIM as the default for cellular data only.

Plans run on tier-1 mobile networks in Greece. The exact carrier depends on the plan; you'll see the network name on each plan card before you pay.

Typical activation is 1–3 minutes after switching the eSIM on. Many travelers install the eSIM at home over Wi-Fi and toggle it on the moment the plane lands.

GetSim eSIMs are data-only. For voice and SMS, use apps like WhatsApp, FaceTime, Signal or Telegram. They all work seamlessly over the eSIM data. If you need a real phone number for verifications, pair the eSIM with a GetSim virtual number from the same wallet.

Top up the eSIM directly from your dashboard or the GetSim app, no need to install a new profile. Top-ups are billed per-GB at the same rate as the original plan.
