What to install before you land in Ireland

The eSIM gets you online — these are the local apps it unlocks the moment you arrive.

  • Iarnród Éireann

    Irish Rail app — intercity tickets + DART live boards. The Dublin–Cork Enterprise stays online via trackside repeaters.

  • Dublin Bus / TFI Go

    TFI Go is the national real-time multi-modal app; Dublin Bus app is best for stop-specific arrival times.

  • Free Now / Lynk

    Free Now hails licensed taxis; Lynk is the Irish-born alternative. Uber operates only in Dublin and charges taxi rates.

  • AA Roadwatch

    Real-time traffic + closures across Irish motorways — essential for the M50 Dublin orbital and the N17 west coast.

Local prepaid SIM vs. our free eSIM in Ireland

What you’d pay at the airport SIM kiosk — and what you save by activating the eSIM before you fly.

Local prepaid SIM
Vodafone Ireland / Tesco prepaid
€20· 15 GB
ID required — Activation typically needs an Irish address — hotels sometimes refuse.

Bigger allowance but the address requirement blocks most tourists. The free eSIM is live before you exit DUB.

Free eSIM for Ireland FAQs by co:sim

Everything you need to know about the free new-user eSIM offer.

Does the free eSIM work in Northern Ireland?
Yes. Crossing into NI triggers a seamless switch to EE under the UK profile with the same allowance + no extra charges. You won’t notice the handover.
Will it work on the Wild Atlantic Way?
Mostly. Main N-roads + towns are covered, but smaller R-roads through Connemara + remote Donegal can drop for 10–20 km. Offline maps recommended; service resumes near the next village.
Does it work on the Dublin DART and Luas?
Yes. DART has steady 4G with a brief drop near Bray Head tunnel. Both Luas lines (Red + Green) stay connected since they run mostly at street level.
Can I use the eSIM on ferries from Dublin or Rosslare?
Near the coast yes — roughly the first 15–20 km. Open-sea stretches go dark for 2–4 hours, then reconnect on the UK or French side (both included).
Who's eligible for the free eSIM?
New users who have not previously claimed a free eSIM. Eligibility is verified at checkout.
Will I be charged anything?
$0 is charged for the free eSIM. A valid card is collected at checkout for verification only — this prevents the same person claiming multiple free eSIMs. You only pay if you choose to top up later.
How long is the free eSIM valid?
Install and activate the eSIM within 30 days after purchase. Once activated, the free plan is valid for 7 days from your first connection. After that, top up anytime to extend the validity — the same eSIM keeps working.
Can I top up or buy more data after?
Yes. Top up the same eSIM with any paid plan at any time — your data and validity extend instantly, no reinstall required. You can also buy plans for any of our 190+ other destinations.
Can I claim the free eSIM again?
No. This free eSIM is a new-user offer, so it can only be claimed once.
How does the free plan compare to paid plans?
Same high-quality network coverage. Paid plans offer more data and longer validity — and you can top up onto your free eSIM at any time.
