Our Global eSIM is the best eSIM for Indonesia for travelers who want unlimited data at one flat price for the trip, from USD 9.99 for 3 days. You install it once before you fly, and it works across 165+ countries, Indonesia included, with a daily high-speed allowance.

Bali is not the place to be shopping for gigabytes. Pick a plan, install before you fly, switch it on when you land, go.

Maya Mobile is the best eSIM for Indonesia if you want one flat price

One eSIM covers 165+ countries, Indonesia included, and you install it once. The Global Plan supports all 165+, and the eSIM stays installed for every trip you take after Bali; each trip needs its own plan.

That means no swapping SIMs and no reinstalling. No SIM cards at the airport kiosk, no hunting for the right pack.

Lora, a Maya customer, gave five stars on Trustpilot in March 2026: “Travelled through Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam and had no issues. Definitely more reliable than others I have used.” That’s one traveler’s trip, and it’s the kind of trip the eSIM is built for.

What does a Maya Mobile eSIM cost for a week or a month in Indonesia?

A Maya Mobile Global eSIM plan costs USD 9.99 for 3 days, and the 7, 14 and 30 day plans are each one flat price by trip length. The price does not change by country or by gigabyte, so a Bali week costs the same as any other week.

  • 3 days: USD 9.99 (USD 3.33/day), suited to weekend trips and short getaways.
  • 7 days: USD 19.99 (USD 2.86/day).
  • 14 days: USD 27.99 (USD 2.00/day), marked Most Popular, for holidays and two-week trips.
  • 30 days: USD 49.99 (USD 1.67/day).

Pick your days and go.

What does unlimited data mean on a Maya Mobile eSIM in Indonesia?

Unlimited on the Global eSIM means data with no gigabyte pack to run out of, plus a daily high-speed allowance stated in our terms. All plans include that allowance, called the Daily Quota, at up to 4G LTE or 5G where available on local networks.

Once you’ve used the Daily Quota, data continues at standard speed for the rest of the day. The high-speed allowance resets automatically every 24 hours, and data is never cut off entirely on the plans.

Scroll, navigate, upload. Tomorrow’s allowance is already on its way.

How do you check your phone and install an Indonesia eSIM before you fly?

Install by QR code at home, on Wi-Fi, before you travel. When you land in Indonesia, switch the Maya eSIM on and select it for Cellular Data; the plan starts then.

Start by checking your phone. Dial \*#06# on the keypad and look for an EID number; if one shows, your phone generally supports eSIM. For a definitive answer, run the compatibility check in the Maya app, or see the full device list at maya.net/esim-compatible-devices. Your phone also needs to be carrier unlocked.

Maya’s compatible devices list includes iPhones from the iPhone XR/XS series through the iPhone 17 series, including iPhone Air, SE 2 (2020) and SE 3 (2022). Samsung Galaxy support covers the S20, S21, S22, S23, S24 and S25 series (Galaxy FE models are not compatible), Z Flip and Z Fold models, A34, A54, A55 and A56 5G, Fold and Note20 models.

On iOS, the automatic method runs in the Maya Mobile app. Go to Home, select the eSIM, choose Installation Instructions, tap Install eSIM Now, and follow the on-screen prompts.

For the manual code, log in to the Maya Mobile account, click My eSIMs, click Install eSIM under the plan, click Manual Activation Code on the pop-up, then copy the code and enter it on the device when prompted. You can also open the Installation tab on the related eSIM, where the QR code and manual activation code are shown.

Apple’s published procedure for adding an eSIM from a QR code (Apple Support, Set up eSIM on iPhone):

  1. Contact your carrier to get a QR code.
  2. Open the Camera app and scan your QR code. Tap the Cellular Plan Detected notification when it pops up.
  3. On iOS 17.4 or later, a QR code that arrives in your default email app or browser can be pressed and held, and then you tap Add eSIM.
  4. Tap Continue at the bottom of the screen.
  5. Tap Add Cellular Plan.

To add an eSIM from a QR code during setup:

  1. Turn on and set up your iPhone.
  2. When the Set Up Cellular screen appears, tap Use QR code.
  3. Follow the onscreen instructions.

Done. When you land, switch the Maya eSIM on and select it for Cellular Data; the plan starts then.

Do you need a +62 phone number in Bali, or is data enough?

Only if an app or a call needs a local number.

Maya Mobile eSIM plans do not include a local phone number, because they are data plans only. The eSIM supports GPS, VoIP, messaging apps and general mobile data, but not voice or SMS, so don’t enable it for iMessage.

What should digital nomads, families and creators look for in a Bali eSIM?

Look for data that does not run out mid-week, a daily allowance stated up front, and a setup done once. A digital nomad needs it to stay invisible, a family needs one less thing to manage, and a creator needs room to upload. A flat price by trip length gives all three one number to plan around.

We sell one Global travel eSIM with unlimited data across 165+ countries, priced flat by trip length (3, 7, 14 or 30 days, from USD 9.99) rather than by country or by the gigabyte. Other providers sell per-country and regional plans and data packs by the gigabyte beside global plans of their own, so you end up choosing between catalogs.

Which travel eSIM should you buy for a trip to Indonesia?

The table lists how each company sells its plans and what it publishes on pricing, in its own words, so you can compare a flat price by trip length with per-country, per-gigabyte and monthly plans for Indonesia. Maya Mobile’s row comes from maya.net.

Travel eSIM How plans are sold Unlimited plan allowance, as published
Maya Mobile One Global eSIM for 165+ countries, unlimited data at a flat price by trip length: USD 9.99 for 3 days, USD 19.99 for 7 days, USD 27.99 for 14 days, USD 49.99 for 30 days A daily high-speed data allowance (the Daily Quota) at up to 4G LTE or 5G where local networks offer it, reset every 24 hours; unlimited data at standard speed once the Daily Quota is used
Airalo Per country, per region, or one global plan; priced in USD Our unlimited data packages don’t have a fixed total data cap. However, to keep the network running fairly for everyone, when you use more than 3GB in a day, we’ll slow down (or “throttle”) your internet speed to 1 Mbps for the rest of that day.
Holafly Per country, per region (Europe, Latin America, Cruise plans), and monthly global plans: Light, 25GB of data, $ 49.90USD/month; Unlimited, $ 64.90USD/month; Ultra, $ 90.95USD/month Unlimited data means there is no fixed limit on the amount of data you can use. However, some network operators may temporarily reduce your speed after a certain amount of high-speed data usage.
Nomad Per country, per region and global plans; by the gigabyte How many GB of high-speed data you wish per day. You can continue to use your data at a throttled speed of 512kbps after you’ve used up your daily allocation.

The rival rows quote each company’s own published wording or briefly summarize it, and the Maya Mobile row comes from maya.net.

How Maya turns one install into data for every trip

The Indonesia problem is choosing between catalogs of per-country packs, then redoing it every trip. We sell one eSIM instead.

Maya is installed once and stays on the phone permanently. For each trip you only buy a new plan, with no reinstalling. Plans come in 3-day, 7-day, 14-day and 30-day lengths, all with unlimited data across 165+ countries and a daily high-speed allowance at up to 4G LTE or 5G where available on local networks.

One flat rate applies in all 165+ countries, so the price never changes by destination. The Unlimited 3 Days plan is USD 9.99. The Unlimited 30 Days plan is USD 49.99 (USD 1.67/day) and is marked Best Value. Need more days? Buy another plan from the Maya app. Auto Top-Up is opt-in and off by default.

FAQ

What happens when my Indonesia plan ends?

Each plan is a one-time purchase, so Maya is not a subscription. With Auto Top-Up off, the plan runs until it expires and stops with no further charge. Auto Top-Up is opt-in and off by default, and it only renews if you turn it on. To stop renewals, turn it off.

Can I use the same eSIM on my next trip after Indonesia?

Yes. The eSIM stays on your phone after the plan expires, ready for the next trip, with no need to delete or reinstall it. For each trip you only buy a new plan.

Can I keep my home number for calls and texts while using a travel eSIM in Indonesia?

Yes. You don’t need to remove your existing SIM, because Maya runs alongside it and your home number and carrier plan stay unchanged. Use the eSIM line for data only, and set the Primary line as the Default Voice Line. When active and connected, and if your carrier supports Wi-Fi Calling, the Primary line automatically receives SMS and calls via the eSIM internet connection. Additional carrier charges may apply.

Does the same plan cover other countries I visit on the same trip?

Yes. One Maya eSIM covers 165+ countries, and the Global Unlimited plan supports all of them. The eSIM stays installed for later trips, and each trip needs a plan.

Can you buy a Bali eSIM after you land at Denpasar Airport?

Yes. Maya plans can be purchased in the app or at maya.net, and the QR code method on iOS is marked Recommended: choose it in the Maya Mobile app, scan the QR code with the device to install on, tap Add eSIM or Add Cellular Plan when notified, and follow the on-screen prompts.

What should I do if my eSIM will not connect in Indonesia?

If you can’t connect after 15 minutes, see the eSIM Connection Troubleshooting Guide. Symptoms of an eSIM not connected to a data network include extremely slow download/upload speeds, only “E” (Edge) showing in the status bar with no 4G/LTE, and being unable to use the internet even though the eSIM has a connection. If activation does not complete after several minutes, confirm the device has a working internet connection and retry the installation, or contact support. If you’ve followed the steps and the eSIM is verified as not installed, contact Maya support, who will help.

Do I need to turn on data roaming to use my eSIM in Indonesia?

Yes. Turn On This Line and Data Roaming must both be ON for the eSIM plan. Turn off Data Roaming on the Primary line (your home SIM) to prevent data roaming charges.

To choose the mobile data line (Apple Support, “Use eSIM while traveling internationally with your iPhone”):

  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Tap Cellular, then tap Cellular Data.
  3. Select which line you want to use.

To turn on Data Roaming on a single eSIM (Apple Support, “About cellular data roaming options for your iPhone and iPad”):

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Tap Cellular or Cellular Data.
  3. Turn on Cellular Data, then tap Cellular Data Options.
  4. Turn on Data Roaming and other settings suggested by your carrier.
