Network and coverage
Your eSIM roams on whichever eligible local network gives the best signal: EE, O2, Three, Vodafone. Some plans include 5G where the network offers it.
Why Kokio for United Kingdom
Kokio asks for no ID at all: you sign in with a passkey, and we never collect your name or email.
Kokio plans connect by roaming, so there is no local SIM to register.
Pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, or crypto (USDC, USDT or DAI from a Kokio Wallet on Base, or other coins via MoonPay). The plan price is the same whichever way you pay, because Kokio covers the payment processing fees.
Tips for United Kingdom
- Your eSIM can use EE, O2, Three or Vodafone, all four UK networks. If the signal drops in the countryside, choose another by hand in Settings → Mobile Service → your Kokio line → Network Selection.
- Taking the train to Paris or Amsterdam? A UK plan stops at the UK. The Europe + UK plans in the app cover the UK and the continent on one eSIM.
- Plans start at 1 GB for 7 days, enough for a short London stopover. Unlimited plans run for 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 or 30 days.
Setup
- Install the eSIM at home on Wi-Fi. It installs once only.
- Land at Heathrow (LHR) or Gatwick (LGW).
- iPhone: Settings → Mobile Service → choose the Kokio line for mobile data, with data roaming on.
- Not connecting? Toggle Airplane Mode, then pick a network manually.
