30+ European countries · One eSIM · One balance

Europe eSIM

A European trip rarely stays in one country — and in the bundle world that means buying a new eSIM at every border or settling for an overpriced 'regional plan'. With Rivio eSIM, one eSIM and one balance work across 30+ European countries: carriers switch automatically when you cross a border, and you pay only for the gigabytes you use at each country's local rate.

Why a balance beats bundles in Europe

1

Built for multi-country routes

Paris–Amsterdam–Berlin doesn't need three packages. One balance works in all three on the same eSIM — and if the route changes, nothing to rebuy.

2

No countdown clock

No '5 GB / 30 days' timer. Your balance behaves like money: whatever this summer's trip doesn't use, next winter's trip will.

3

Same deal outside the EU

The UK, Switzerland, Norway and the Balkans sit outside EU roaming rules — where surprise charges usually strike. With Rivio eSIM they run on the same eSIM and the same balance.

Per-GB rates across Europe

Rates vary by country and are always current in the app. Tap any country for coverage and carrier details.

Real math: a 12-day, three-country trip

Twelve days across Italy, France and Spain; at ~320 MB a day that's about 3.8 GB total.

Rivio eSIM, one balance

$9.31

3.8 GB × $2.45/GB — one eSIM in all three countries, nothing to do at borders, leftover balance rolls to your next trip.

Regional fixed bundle

$15–20

The going range for a 'Europe 5 GB / 30 days' package. The unused 1.2 GB burns, and nothing carries over to a second trip.

Heavy users burning 15 GB or more can still come out ahead on a big regional bundle's unit price. See the pay-as-you-go guide for the full comparison.

Is Rivio eSIM the best eSIM for Europe?

The answer to 'the best eSIM for Europe' depends on how you travel. Rivio eSIM is strongest on multi-country routes, uncertain usage and frequent trips: one balance works across the whole continent, never expires, and crossing borders requires nothing from you. The vast majority of European trips fit exactly that profile.

Frequently asked questions

How many European countries does the eSIM cover? +

Rivio eSIM works in 30+ European countries on a single eSIM profile — including France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Greece, the UK, Switzerland and Norway. There is no separate 'Europe package' to buy; the same balance is valid across the continent.

Are non-EU countries like the UK and Switzerland included? +

Yes. EU roaming rules don't cover these countries, which is exactly where classic carrier plans produce surprise charges. With Rivio eSIM, the UK, Switzerland, Norway and the Balkans run on the same balance at local per-GB rates.

Do you offer unlimited data in Europe? +

No. Rivio eSIM works on pay-as-you-go instead of unlimited packages — a typical traveler uses only a fraction of what unlimited plans charge for, and that gap shows up in the price. With metered per-GB pricing you pay for what you consume, and the leftover balance rolls over to your next trip.

Does it come with a phone number? +

Rivio eSIM is a data-only eSIM — no phone number included. Calls work over WhatsApp, FaceTime and similar apps, and your own number stays active on your primary SIM.

What do I do when crossing between countries? +

If the initial setup is complete and data roaming is enabled for Rivio eSIM, no new QR code or package is needed. When you cross from France into Italy, the device registers on a partner network when coverage is available and usage is charged at Italy's rate.

How much balance should I load for a Europe trip? +

A typical traveler uses ~300 MB a day, so a 10-day trip needs about 3 GB — roughly $8-10 of balance in most European countries. If you run low, topping up takes seconds; whatever is left over waits for your next trip.
