The nitty gritty
Macedonia eSIM FAQs
These eSIMs don’t include voice minutes - data only. For any calling or texting, you’ll need to rely on VoIP or messaging apps such as WhatsApp, Viber, or Messenger.
Definitely. Install your Macedonia travel eSIM up to 30 days before departure, and it will activate automatically when you arrive.
Installing early won’t consume data or days from your plan until you land in Macedonia.
If an iPhone shows an activation error when installing abroad, you can safely ignore it - check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide for guidance.
No, our Macedonia travel eSIMs do not include any phone number - they strictly provide internet data. For calls, use data - driven apps such as WhatsApp, Messenger, or Facetime.
Your eSIM will activate automatically when you arrive in Macedonia. We recommend installing your Macedonia Travel eSIM in advance (installation is different from activation).
Just scan the QR code you receive or install via the ZenSim app using WiFi. Once you touch down in Macedonia, your eSIM will go live automatically.
If anything goes wrong, check out our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or contact us 😊
Your Macedonia eSIM will start working the moment you land in Macedonia-it auto-activates if installed prior to departure.
If you install it after arrival, it will connect immediately.

Using a travel eSIM trumps roaming in Macedonia - here’s a quick rundown:
Significant Savings: Pay local Macedonia rates instead of exorbitant roaming prices set by your home carrier.
Convenient Switching: No swapping SIM cards - manage everything digitally from your phone settings.
Usage Clarity: Get real-time updates on data consumption, so you never get billed for data you didn’t need.
No - the plan’s data and days only start when you arrive in Macedonia. Installation beforehand simply sets it up for activation on landing.
We recommend installing before departure since you will need WiFi to complete the installation process and this way you will be connected as soon as you land.
If you need help connecting, check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or reach out to us.
Definitely! ZenSim supports eSIM usage in over 200 countries, so Macedonia is covered. If you need multi-country coverage, take a look at our regional eSIM options on the Travel eSIMs page.
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.

Absolutely. Nearly all of our Travel eSIMs can be extended directly inside the ZenSim app in just a few taps. You can top up extra data, more days, or even include an additional country on the same eSIM, you’ll find everything in the Zen Garden top up section.
Just sign in, head to the Zen Garden, and you’ll spot the option to top up your eSIM straight away.
Top up plan details: The Macedonia options mirror the website plans, with an added 10% savings.
Longer trips: If your adventure goes beyond 30 days, you can stack as many top ups as you like. Each one activates only after the previous plan ends, so you can buy them in advance without affecting your current eSIM.
Add more countries: Many of our eSIMs now support multi country top ups. For example, if you're using a Europe eSIM and have a stopover in Dubai, simply add a Dubai top up and it will activate automatically when you land without needing a new installation.
Your Macedonia eSIM is designed for use within Macedonia, 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.
Absolutely you can. After purchasing your Macedonia eSIM, share your unique referral URL with whoever you like and if they purchase you both save A$5 on your next purchases.
After purchase you can access your URL on the checkout confirmation screen or in the ZenSim app. For each new customer you refer to us you will be given a A$5 voucher to use on your next purchase.
Track your referral activity and access your unique referral link inside the ZenSim app. View the terms to learn more.
Only on unlimited plans, and only past 3GB in a single day - which is a generous amount, considering most travellers use less than 1GB daily.
If you do go past 3GB, your speed will be limited to 1Mbps until midnight, when it resets and you're back to full speed again.
Fixed-data plans (10GB, 20GB, etc.) don't have any daily throttling - you're free to use your data at whatever pace suits you until the plan's used up. We'll flag it before you run out, and topping up takes just a couple of taps in the ZenSim app.
Your days and data don't start counting down the second you buy the eSIM - they only kick in once you actually land in Macedonia, so feel free to install it well ahead of your trip.
As long as it's already installed, it'll auto-activate the moment you arrive, and that's when the clock starts on your plan.
As for when it ends - your plan runs until either your data or your days are used up, whichever happens first (unless you're unlimited, in which case it's just the days that matter). A 30-day plan means it ends 30 days from your arrival in Macedonia, not 30 days from your purchase date.
Easy way to check - just run your phone through our eSIM compatibility checker and you'll know in seconds whether it'll work with our Macedonia eSIM and networks.
Still not sure, or something looks off? Reach out to us and we'll sort it out. And if it turns out your phone genuinely can't run the eSIM, our refund policy has you covered with a full refund - so there's no risk in grabbing a plan and giving it a go.
We sure do - it's covered under our 100% money back guarantee.
Cancelled trip, incompatible phone, or your travel plans just changing - all of these situations qualify.
Check out our refund policy for the full details, but the bottom line is: if you can't install or use the eSIM, you'll get every cent back.
