I'm planning a trip and could use some advice about eSIM coverage in rural areas of New Zealand. What's the best way to handle this with a GotoeSIM?

Great question! In short: install your eSIM on Wi-Fi before you travel, set it as your data line, and turn on Data Roaming (it never costs extra — the plan is prepaid). It activates automatically when you arrive, and you can top up in the app if you run low.

Coverage was solid even outside the city.

The install-before-you-fly tip is key.

Worked great for me — connected as soon as I landed.
