81. OneSim VoIP
    • When making an outgoing call how do I select which way the call should go: through regular roaming or through OneSim VoIP?

      To make an outgoing call using OneSim VoIP, you need to be registered on a Wi-Fi network and have the OneSim VoIP app running on your phone. You should make the call using the OneSim VoIP app dial pad. To make a call the regular roaming way,you should make a call from your regular phone dial pad. 

      NOTE: Regular roaming calling is NOT available on DataMax or DataMax eSIM cards. To use voice you will need to use the OneSim VoIP app

82. OneSim VoIP
    • Where can I find the settings required to be entered into the OneSim VoIP app?

      Once you create the OneSim VoIP account, you will be emailed settings and instructions. You can also see the settings in the My SIM Cards menu of your online account.
83. Rates and Cost Questions
    • Is there a monthly or 30-day credit card spending limit for OneSimCard service?

      Yes. To reduce fraud and to protect you from over-spending, there is 30-day credit card spending limit set for each individual account. You will only be able to charge up to a certain amount during any 30-day period. You can see your current limit by logging in to your OneSimCard account and going to the Purchase History menu. There, you will find a Credit Card Authorization form available for download. If you would like to increase your monthly credit card spending limit, please download the Authorization form and submit it back to OneSimCard as instructed on the form.

      We strongly suggest that you set your monthly credit card limit before going overseas as dealing with the form on the road can be much more difficult. 

84. eSIM
    • Is there an eSIM App for Apple iOS and Android devices?

      Yes. The 1Sim eSIM app is available at:

      Get it on Google Play



      These apps allow for much easier management of eSIM data plans.

      To connect your eSIM app to your existing web account at www.onesimcard.com, please complete the following simple steps:

      1. Install eSIM app

      2. Log in to the eSIM app using email and password for your current online OneSimCard account

      That is all. You will be able to see the device connected to your web account in the MY SIM Cards menu of your account at www.OneSimCard.com

      Customers who ordered an eSIM directly from the eSIM app do not need to connect the app and their online account at OneSimCard.com as they are already connected.


85. OneSim VoIP
    • What are the advantages of using OneSim VoIP?

      The main advantages are significant cost savings and the ability to call from countries where there is no voice roaming coverage available, or for DataMax or DataMax eSIMs

      OneSim VoiP can be used from any Android or Apple ( iOS) device to make international LD calls even when you are not traveling. OneSim VoIP does not require having OneSimCard SIM being installed in the phone. OneSim VoIP can be used with Wi-Fi or 3G/4G - no difference. You just need to have OneSimCard account with the SIM VoIP capable PEN. Calling using OneSim VoIP will cost most of the time less than any other way of calling.
