When making a purchase from marketplaces such as Amazon, eBay, and Best Buy, you may notice a shipping fee associated with your eSIM order. Let's explore the reasons behind this charge.
Which marketplaces charge for eSIM shipping?
Marketplaces like Amazon, eBay, and Best Buy typically apply shipping fees to eSIM purchases.
Why do these marketplaces charge for eSIM?
You might be curious why a digital product like an eSIM incurs a shipping fee. The reason lies in the operational requirements of these marketplaces. In order to maintain consistency in their order processing systems, marketplaces mandate that each order includes a tracking number. Even though eSIMs are digital products and don't require physical shipment, marketplaces still require a tracking number to be associated with the order. This means that we must send out a shipment of instructions to customers along with the tracking number. Unfortunately, this means that we are unable to bypass the shipping requirement even for digital products like eSIMs. However, this ensures that you receive a tracking number along with your order, allowing you to monitor its delivery status.
Do I need to wait for my instructions to arrive before setting up my eSIM?
No, there's no need to wait! You can promptly set up your eSIM and initiate your service without waiting for the instructions to arrive. If you require immediate service, you can proceed with setting up your eSIM using the instructions available at links.jethromobile.com/esim.
