Install a Travel eSIM on Your Tablet
Tablets with cellular capability can use eSIM just like phones. This is perfect for travelers who want data on their iPad without tethering to their phone. Bcengi TravelPass is a pay-as-you-go eSIM — you only pay for data you use, with no bundles, no expiry, and no contracts. One eSIM works in 200+ countries.
Compatible iPads
- iPad Pro (3rd generation and newer)
- iPad Air (3rd generation and newer)
- iPad (7th generation and newer)
- iPad mini (5th generation and newer)
Important: Only the WiFi + Cellular models support eSIM. WiFi-only iPads do not have cellular capability.
