English
An eSIM for Jordan is a digital data plan for the phone you already own. There is no physical SIM card, no airport lines, and no passport needed. Your plan is ready on your SIMAREA account before you even leave home.
It works safely alongside your normal SIM. You keep your own number for calls and important text messages. Your data goes through the SIMAREA plan. Just turn off data roaming on your home SIM to avoid high bills.
Coverage comes from Zain, the one network these plans use. Your phone connects to it when you arrive.
If you stay longer, top up your current plan with more data. You do not need to buy a new one.
What it is not: a local phone number. If you need a number for verification codes, see virtual numbers.
Jordan eSIM on Zain: a day pass or fixed data
Mobile data for a trip to Amman or Petra on one network, Zain. Choose a day pass or a plan of 7, 15, or 30 days.
The unlimited plan is the day pass we feature for Jordan: after its daily full-speed allowance it keeps you connected at a lower speed, and it is billed per day for the days you choose. Fixed plans are one price for the term shown. Nothing on this page is an estimate.
How to get mobile data in Jordan
Install it at home before you go. Some plans here start counting at installation, so check the line under the price for the plan you pick.
Pick eSIM plan
Choose how long you are there. The day pass is billed per day, so the term is yours to set.
Pay, then scan
Charged from your balance, which you top up with crypto. Your QR code is in your dashboard once the order is paid.
Turn it on when you arrive
Turn on data roaming for your SIMAREA plan when you arrive, and it joins a partner network.
What to know about an eSIM for Jordan
The specifics that decide whether a travel eSIM is useful once you're actually there.
Runs on Zain
Plans for Jordan connect to Zain. Your phone joins it once data roaming is on for the eSIM.
Set up before you go
No SIM card store, no passport check. Install it at home, then turn on data roaming for it when you arrive.
Hotspot sharing
Share your internet with a laptop or a friend, if your plan and phone allow it.
Keep your own number
The eSIM is just for internet. Your normal SIM still receives calls and important bank codes. You can use both at once.
Keep using the same eSIM
Staying longer? Top up the same plan with more data from your dashboard. No need for a new QR code.
If it does not work
Not installed or connected yet? Ask for a refund within 30 days of buying it. Installed but not working on any of its networks? Support helps, and refunds you if it cannot be fixed.
Jordan eSIM on one network, with no 5G mark
All ten plans on this page connect to Zain, and to Zain alone. None of them, the day pass included, carries a 5G mark in the catalog.
The exit is listed as Europe. Websites see an address in Europe rather than in Jordan, and since the catalog names no country, we can't tell you which one.
Sizes and start rules on the Jordan plans
Three sizes run for 7 days (100 MB, 500 MB, 1 GB), two for 15 days (2 GB, 3 GB), and four for 30 days (3, 5, 10, 20 GB). The day pass sits apart from them: on Zain it gives 1 GB a day at full speed, then 512 Kbps until the day resets.
The 100 MB week counts from installation, so put it on once you're in Jordan. The other nine count from the first connection in Jordan, and those you can install before your trip. A plan you haven't used stays valid for 180 days. Topping up adds data on the same eSIM and leaves the days alone.
Umniah and 5G on Zain: the multi-country rows
Plans sold for several countries connect differently in Jordan. They list Zain with a 5G mark plus Umniah without one, and their exit is the UK or Norway.
- Middle East eSIM: the 11-country and 12-country lists both name Jordan, along with Israel, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia. Egypt is on the 12-country list only, in sizes from 1 GB for 7 days to 20 GB for 30 days.
- Global 130: the same two networks in Jordan, with rows up to 20 GB for 90 days and 1 GB for 365 days.
Jordan isn't named on the six-country Middle East list, and the region's day pass belongs to that list. For a day pass in Jordan, use the one on this page.
Jordan eSIM questions
Does the Jordan eSIM have 5G?
Not on the ten plans here: Zain has no 5G mark on them. Zain does carry the mark on the 11-country and 12-country Middle East rows and on Global 130.
Is Umniah on the Jordan plans?
No. They list Zain only. Umniah appears in Jordan on the Middle East and Global 130 rows, next to Zain.
Is the Jordan day pass unlimited?
It's open-ended only at the slower speed. The pass stays at full speed on Zain up to 1 GB a day, and past that it holds 512 Kbps until the reset.
Does the eSIM include a +962 number?
It doesn't. A Jordan plan is data on Zain, without a +962 number, calls, or SMS, and your regular SIM stays in charge of your own number. For a number that receives SMS, which is a separate rental, start at virtual numbers.
What happens when a 30-day Jordan plan ends?
A top-up can't extend it, because top-ups add data rather than days. Buy another Jordan plan and install it the same way, or start with the 90-day row on Global 130.
