Eskimo gives new users 500MB of global eSIM data when they join with code DB94542. No purchase or payment card was required for the offer checked.

Invitation link: we may receive free data if you join. Your own allowance is not reduced.

How to claim the Eskimo new user offer

  1. Open the invitation.

    Use the button above and download the official Eskimo app.

  2. Create a new account.

    Follow the app’s registration steps.

  3. Use the referral code.

    Enter DB94542 if the invitation has not already applied it.

  4. Check the data wallet.

    Look for the 500MB welcome allowance before installing the eSIM.

  5. Install on Wi-Fi.

    Add the eSIM before your journey and follow the phone instructions carefully.

How far will 500MB go?

It depends on what you do. Text messages, email and maps use relatively little data. Social video, streaming and cloud photo backups can empty the allowance quickly.

To make it last, download maps and entertainment at home, turn on low-data mode and disable automatic updates. Save the allowance for useful travel jobs.

Where does Eskimo work?

Eskimo advertises global coverage across more than 140 destinations. Coverage can change, so search for your exact country in the app before relying on it. Also confirm that your phone supports eSIM and is unlocked.

You can usually install the eSIM before leaving home. The first connection in a new country may take a few minutes, so restart mobile data or the phone if it does not connect immediately.

Can you get more free data?

The app includes promotional scratch cards that can award extra data. Prize sizes vary and a large headline prize is not guaranteed. Treat this as a small extra, not as the data plan for an important journey.

Eskimo questions

Do I need to buy an Eskimo data plan?
No purchase was required to receive the 500MB offer when checked. You can buy more later if you like the service, but check the current joining screen.
How long does the free data last?
The welcome data was shown with up to two years of validity. Your app displays the exact expiry date for your allowance.
Will this replace my normal SIM?
No. Eskimo can sit alongside your usual SIM and provide travel data. Your regular number can remain active, although your UK network may charge for calls or texts abroad.
Why has the eSIM not connected yet?
Check that the Eskimo line is enabled, selected for mobile data and allowed to use data roaming. It can take several minutes to find a partner network for the first time.
