Does a VoyaSIM eSIM work everywhere in the United States?
It connects to the partner networks named on each United States plan page, with 5G where the network and your phone support it. Coverage follows those networks, so cities and main routes are covered and remote areas depend on the partner's own reach.
How were the other providers chosen?
