Of course. Open the ZenSim app and log in. From there, you can choose to top up your eSIM with additional days or gigabytes.
Just select the top-up plan you need (for example, another 30 days or a plan of 10GB) and complete your purchase - it’s instant.
If installed before your trip, it will activate when you land in Kenya.
If installed after arrival, it goes live right away.
Having issues? Check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or contact us for assistance.
Your Kenya eSIM is designed for use within Kenya, so once it's been activated there, it won’t work in other countries.
If you're visiting multiple destinations, a better option might be one of our regional Travel eSIMs that cover entire regions like Europe or Asia.
No, these eSIMs only provide data access and do not assign you a phone number. To make calls, please use internet - enabled apps such as WhatsApp or FaceTime.
Connectivity Troubleshooting: Check our troubleshooting guide if your eSIM won’t connect. Still stuck? Hit up our support team and we’ll get you back online fast.
eSIM Installation Help: For help setting up your eSIM, visit our installation guide, or simply contact us - we’re happy to assist.
Other Inquiries: Have another issue? Head to our contact page and we’ll respond ASAP.
No, the Kenya travel eSIM is data - only. It won’t give you a cellular voice line. If you want to call, just fire up WhatsApp, Telegram, or FaceTime using your data allowance.
Nope - the eSIM waits for you to land in Kenya before beginning data usage or counting plan days, unless of course you're already in Kenya then yes it will start using data immediately.
We advise installing before departure over WiFi so you can be connected as soon as you land on the tarmac.
For any connection hiccups, check out our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or get in touch.
Yes - ZenSim’s eSIMs work in 200+ countries, and Kenya is included. For travellers needing multiple-country access, we offer regional eSIMs. You can find those on our Travel eSIMs page.
If you want to avoid roaming headaches in Kenya, a travel eSIM is the smarter pick:
Big Savings: Our local Kenya eSIM data plans are priced for residents, not tourists who pay premium roaming costs.
Easy Plan Changes: Upgrade or downgrade your data allowance on the fly - no need for a new SIM.
Full Transparency: See your data usage in - app so you won’t run out unexpectedly or incur extra charges.
Of course. You can install your Kenya eSIM up to 30 days before departure. Once you arrive, it will activate automatically.
Installing early won’t use any data or start your plan until you arrive in Kenya.
If your iPhone shows an activation error during pre-install, you can ignore often it - refer to our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide for help.
Your eSIM will activate automatically once you arrive in Kenya. We advise installing your Kenya Travel eSIM before you travel (installation is distinct from activation).
To install, just scan the QR code we send or install via the ZenSim app over WiFi. On landing in Kenya, the eSIM will switch on by itself.
