eSIM Plus (Estonia number)
eSIMGlobal eSIM marketplace — its global plan bundles a permanent Estonian number with free SMS receiving
Best for: Zero-maintenance SMS receiving: buy once, no top-up schedule, ever.
Overview
eSIM Plus (esimplus.me) is a global eSIM marketplace; its Global plan ships with an Estonian phone number, free SMS receiving and no expiry date — buy once, keep forever without top-ups. Pay by Visa/Mastercard or Google Pay; the QR code arrives in your order page. No real-name registration.
eSIM Plus is an aggregator rather than a carrier: its Estonia-numbered global plan is the zero-maintenance option in this catalogue — the number is permanent, SMS receiving is free, and there is no keep-alive ritual at all (contrast giffgaff's 180-day rule or Moldtelecom's 6-month top-up).
Purchase flow per the 2025-09 source review: create an account with email, choose the global plan (which includes the Estonian number), pay by Visa/Mastercard/Google Pay, wait 2–3 minutes for confirmation, then fetch the number and eSIM QR code from the orders page.
Activation: native-eSIM phones scan the QR directly; others use an eSIM chip (e.g. Xesim) via the app's +/scan flow, about two minutes to load.
In mainland China the number roams with signal and SMS reception was verified working.
Caveats: this is a marketplace product — the underlying number's long-term fate depends on eSIM Plus's carrier arrangements, not a national carrier's retail arm; outbound calls/SMS and data are priced as add-ons; and 'permanent' means no expiry date is stated, not a regulator-guaranteed lifetime.

Plan tiers and pricing vary on the esimplus.me storefront; entry per 2025-09 source review. 'Permanent' = no stated expiry, not a regulator-guaranteed lifetime.
