Why a Yoho Mobile eSIM is a Game-Changer for Your Match Day Trip
Traveling between France (an EU country) and Switzerland (a non-EU country) can be tricky for mobile data. Many carriers’ “EU Roaming” packages don’t include Switzerland, leading to unexpected, sky-high bills. A Yoho Mobile eSIM completely changes the game.
- One Plan, Two Countries: Our Europe plans cover both France and Switzerland, so your data works seamlessly as you cross the border. No need to switch SIMs or worry about your connection dropping right when you’re trying to navigate to the stadium.
- Avoid Shocking Roaming Fees: Stay in control of your spending with our affordable, prepaid data plans. You only pay for what you need, with no hidden costs.
- Superior Stadium Connection: Stadium Wi-Fi can be notoriously slow and unreliable, especially with thousands of fans online at once. With your own private data connection, you can upload selfies, check stats, and stream highlights instantly.
- Ultimate Flexibility: At Yoho Mobile, we believe in flexible plans. You can easily choose the right amount of data and the number of days for your trip, creating a custom plan that fits your needs perfectly.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What’s the best eSIM for France and Switzerland travel during a UEFA match?
A regional Europe eSIM from Yoho Mobile is the best option as it provides seamless cross-border data coverage in both France and Switzerland under a single plan. This eliminates the need to buy separate SIMs and protects you from high roaming charges, especially since Switzerland is often excluded from standard EU roaming packages.

Absolutely. Yoho Mobile partners with top-tier local network providers in both France and Switzerland to ensure you have a strong, reliable connection, even in crowded areas like stadiums. You can rely on your eSIM for stable internet right from your seat.
How much data do I need for a weekend football trip to Lyon and Basel?
For a 2-3 day trip involving navigation, social media, light streaming, and messaging, a plan with 3-5GB of data is usually sufficient. If you plan to stream the full match or do a lot of video calling, consider a larger data package. Yoho Mobile’s flexible plans let you choose the right amount.
Can I keep my original phone number for calls and texts while using a Yoho Mobile data eSIM?
Yes! That’s a major benefit of using a dual SIM phone with an eSIM. You can use your Yoho Mobile eSIM for affordable data while keeping your primary physical SIM active to receive calls and SMS texts on your regular number. You can learn more in our article about the benefits of eSIM.
