Step-by-Step Guide to Activating Global YO eSIM on OPPO Phones Using QR Code

Step 1: Open up the Global YO app on your eSIM-compatible OPPO phone. Once inside, look for the “My eSIM” bubble where you can manage your eSIM activations and settings. Then, find the ‘Install this eSIM' banner and tap on it. This kicks off the process of installing your eSIM onto your OPPO device.

Step 2: With your QR code ready, navigate to the ‘Settings' icon on your OPPO phone. In ‘Settings', head to the ‘Connections' section where you'll find a bunch of options related to your device's connectivity. Look for ‘SIM Card Manager' and tap on it to proceed.

Step 5: Return to the Global YO app and click “Activate Now' on the My eSIMs screen. Your plan's expiry will start from this point. If you're not planning to use your data right away, stick with your local SIM and swap later in your device settings. We recommend activating your plan before you travel, as you'll need a stable internet connection to access the Global YO app.

Once connected to the supported network, your eSIM will enable cellular/mobile data usage automatically on eSIM compatible devices

Congratulations! Your eSIM has been successfully installed and activated. You will be able to use cellular/mobile data once your eSIM is connected to the supported network automatically. You're now ready to enjoy seamless connectivity with your OPPO device.
