Fintech platforms and insurance providers are entering the eSIM market, with PhonePe now offering international travel insurance bundled with a free eSIM.
The move reflects a trend towards integrated digital travel solutions, combining insurance, payments, and mobile data in a single app.
PhonePe's travel insurance includes medical coverage, trip cancellation benefits, emergency cash assistance, and COVID-19 coverage.
The offer is available to Indian nationals traveling internationally who purchase a travel insurance policy via the PhonePe app.
Upon purchasing the policy, users receive a free eSIM preloaded with 500MB of international data and activation instructions via email or SMS.
The eSIM works in over 100 countries and eliminates the need for local SIM cards or expensive roaming.
The combination of insurance and connectivity provides protection during travel and ensures constant connectivity.

This offer caters to the increasing demand for digital travel services and provides convenience to Indian travelers.
Before traveling, users should check their device's eSIM compatibility and understand the insurance policy terms.
