What to install before you land in Iceland

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

  • SafeTravel.is

    Mandatory tool — check in your itinerary so Icelandic Search & Rescue knows where you are. Critical for F-roads + winter driving.

  • Veður (Vedur.is)

    Official weather + aurora forecast app. A full KP + cloud cover refresh uses about 300 KB.

  • Strætó

    Reykjavík city + intercity buses to Akureyri / Höfn. The Klapp pass is cheapest for multi-day stays.

  • Hopp

    Iceland-born scooter + e-bike rental dominant in Reykjavík + Akureyri. No Uber in Iceland.

Local prepaid SIM vs. our free eSIM in Iceland

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

Local prepaid SIM
Síminn prepaid
~ISK 2,900 (~€19)· 5 GB / 30 days
No ID required — Sold at 10-11 or Bónus retailers — finding one that stocks them is the first hurdle.

Iceland sits OUTSIDE EU roam-like-at-home — your home carrier charges $10–€15/day. Our free 7-day plan + a €4.99 top-up beats both.

Free eSIM for Iceland FAQs by co:sim

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

Does 99esim avoid the Iceland roaming trap?
Yes. Iceland sits outside EU roam-like-at-home so home carriers bill daily. Our free eSIM uses a wholesale Síminn deal — 1 GB free for 7 days, with top-ups from €4.99/GB.
Will it work on the full Ring Road?
Mostly. Síminn covers 95%+ of Route 1. Real gaps exist on the northeast stretch between Vopnafjörður + Egilsstaðir — download offline maps.
Can I use it on the F-roads to Landmannalaugar?
No. The interior highlands have NO cellular coverage from any carrier. Plan offline with downloaded Google Maps and SafeTravel check-ins before departing.
Will it work at the Blue Lagoon?
Yes — full 5G at Blue Lagoon reception + pool areas, same at Sky Lagoon. Use the waterproof locker while you soak.
Does coverage reach the Westfjords + Ísafjörður?
Yes. Síminn extends into the Westfjords capital + reaches the fjord bottom, though remote lighthouse tips can drop briefly.
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.
