    Hi, you are buying the add-on online on fizz.ca. You activate roaming on your phone.

    As soon as you land and your cell connects to a tower, cell service should automatically start.

    Hello marcel P. #4583,

    Please note that Travel Add-Ons are activated immediately upon purchase. In order to use them, you must be physically present in the country selected when purchasing the add-on and ensure that your roaming option is turned on in your device settings.

    Here’s how to enable roaming:

    For Android:
    Settings → Network & Internet (or Connections) → Mobile Network → Turn on Roaming

    For iPhone:
    Settings → Cellular → Cellular Data Options → Turn on Data Roaming

    If roaming is not enabled, the Travel Add-On will not function even if it has been successfully activated. You can read more about how Travel Add-Ons work here: https://fizz.ca/en/faq/im-travelling-outside-my-coverage-area-what-are-my-options

    If you need any further assistance, our support agents are always happy to help.  Please click on this link to get in contact with them: https://fizz.ca/en/support

    Thank you and have a good day!

    It activates automatically when you buy. It's best to do this before leaving Canada. Otherwise, you will have to find some sort of Internet access in Mexico to buy (e.g. Airport or Hotel wifi).

    "Add-Ons are active immediately. They’re valid until the end of your next payment cycle. They are not subject to the 72-hour (3-day) freeze period.

    In other words, if there are 10 days left on your current payment cycle, your Add-On will be valid for approximately 40 days."

    Make sure roaming is enabled in your phones SIM settings when you want it to work.

    Once you turn roaming on, you can use it.
