    Go to https://zone.fizz.ca/dce/customer-ui-prod/account/plan
    Manage my plan -> Change my SIM. Follow the instructions.
    Make sure to install the eSim in your phone within 30 minutes after ordering and that your phone is connected to WiFi while installing.
    Please be aware that it will take 30 minutes and possibly a phone reboot for the new eSim on the new phone to activate. DO NOT delete the new eSim from the new phone if it doesn't seem to work at first.

    Can I do this on my MacBook or does it have to be on my iPhone?

    I guess, you'd have to contact support for that.

    You should validate your identity as the owner of the plan. If you can't confirm your CC, contact https://fizz.ca/en/support?

    ✅ Before you start (important)

    Your phone must support eSIM

    Your phone must be unlocked

    You need a stable Wi-Fi connection

    Keep your physical SIM in the phone until the process is finished

    🔄 Steps to convert SIM → eSIM (Fizz)

    Log in to your Fizz account
    👉 https://fizz.ca

    Go to My plans → Mobile → Manage my plan

    Select Change SIM card

    Choose eSIM

    Confirm the change

    Fizz will generate a QR code

    On your phone:

    iPhone:
    Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM → Scan QR code

    Android (varies by brand):
    Settings → Network → SIMs → Add eSIM → Scan QR code

    Wait a few minutes for activation

    Your physical SIM will automatically deactivate

    📱 After activation

    Restart your phone

    Test:

    Calls

    SMS

    Mobile data

    ⚠️ Important things to know

    eSIM transfers are not automatic
    If you change phones later, you’ll need to repeat the eSIM process

    You cannot move eSIMs freely like a physical SIM

    Keep your Fizz login credentials safe (you’ll need them again)

    💡 Should you switch?

    eSIM is great if:

    You travel

    You want dual-SIM

    You don’t want to handle tiny SIM cards

    Stick with physical SIM if:

    You change phones often

    You want quick, carrier-free SIM swaps
