Questions about Kazakhstan
Is there 5G in Almaty and Astana?
Yes. Almaty city centre and Astana's Expo district both have 5G from Kcell. Expect speeds of 200–500 Mbps in 5G zones.
Does this eSIM work at the Charyn Canyon?
Yes on the road and at the canyon rim viewpoint. The 300 m deep canyon floor has patchy signal. Download offline maps before descending.
Is there coverage in Almaty's mountain ski resorts?
Yes. Shymbulak ski resort (2,200–3,200 m) and Medeu ice skating rink have 4G. The gondola from Medeu to Shymbulak maintains signal throughout.
What currency does Kazakhstan use?
Kazakhstani tenge (KZT). Cards are widely accepted in Almaty and Astana. Rural areas prefer cash. ATMs dispense tenge.
Does this eSIM work at the ancient city of Turkestan?
Yes. Turkestan city (with the Khoja Ahmed Yasawi Mausoleum, a UNESCO site) has 4G.
What is an eSIM?
An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM built into your phone. Instead of a physical card, you scan a QR code and your plan installs instantly — no SIM tray needed.
Is my phone eSIM-compatible?
iPhone XS (2018) and newer, most Android flagships from 2020+, and all Samsung Galaxy S21+ devices support eSIM. Check our compatibility page for the full device list.
How do I install the eSIM?
After purchase, we email a QR code. On iPhone: Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM → Scan QR Code. On Android: Settings → Network & Internet → SIMs → Add eSIM. The whole process takes under 60 seconds.
Can I keep my regular SIM while using this eSIM?
Yes. Most phones support dual SIM (physical + eSIM). Keep your home number for calls and SMS — use Flysimio for data abroad. You control which SIM handles what in your phone Settings.
Does the eSIM include a hotspot (tethering)?
Yes, all Flysimio plans include mobile hotspot at no extra charge. Share your data connection with laptops, tablets, or other devices freely.
What happens when my data runs out?
You can top up data from your account dashboard at any time. Top-ups are applied instantly — no need to buy a new eSIM or wait.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. We offer a full refund within 14 days of purchase. Contact contact@flysimio.com with your order number.
How long is the eSIM valid for?
You have 6 months from your purchase date to activate the eSIM. Once activated, the plan validity period (e.g., 7 days, 30 days) begins counting down.
Will the eSIM work at the airport when I land?
Yes — as long as you installed the eSIM before your flight, it activates automatically when your phone connects to a local network on landing. No Wi-Fi required for activation.
What if the QR code doesn't scan?
If the QR code won't scan, you can enter the activation code manually — we include both in the email. You can also contact our 24/7 support team and we'll resend or manually provision your eSIM.
