Best for: Low-maintenance SMS receiving: one purchase covers 365 days, no top-up schedule.

Overview

eSIM Plus (esimplus.me) is a global eSIM marketplace; its Global plan ships with an Estonian phone number and free SMS receiving; per official terms the plan runs 365 days and the Estonian number is provided for 12 months — renew to keep the number. 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 low-maintenance option in this catalogue — SMS receiving is free and there is no keep-alive top-up ritual within a cycle (contrast giffgaff's 180-day rule or Moldtelecom's 6-month top-up); per official 2026-09 copy, the plan is valid 365 days and the Estonian number is provided for 12 months, so renew annually to keep the number (entry tier $7.99, up to $230).

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 the earlier 'permanent' framing overstated the terms — official copy ties the number to 12 months and the plan to one year.
