A Branded eSIM Store for Travel Agencies: Sell Data With Every Trip
A branded eSIM store lets a travel agency sell mobile data for every destination it books, under its own name and on its own domain. Travellers buy before they leave and install in one tap; the agency sets the price, gets paid into its own Stripe account and keeps the customer. With Fully Signal's Build Your Own Store, there is nothing to build or host.

Every traveller an agency books needs data on arrival. Most of them buy it from an app the agency never sees. A branded eSIM store turns that moment into revenue for the agency itself.
Why agencies add eSIM
- It fits every booking. Flights, packages, cruises, school trips, corporate travel: all need data.
- It costs the customer little and saves them a lot. Compared with roaming, an eSIM is often a fraction of the price (eSIM vs roaming).
- It reduces support calls. Travellers who are online can read their vouchers, maps and transfer details.
- It is pure margin. No stock, no shipping, no extra staff.
How it works with your own store
- Your store lives on your domain, for example
esim.youragency.com, in your colours. - Add the link to booking confirmations, pre-departure emails and your website menu.
- The traveller picks their destination and pays you through your Stripe account.
- They get the QR code and install page at once, with your brand, in one of 8 languages.
- You see the order in your partner panel and can help with top-ups if they need more data.
Store, panel or API?
| Your situation | Best fit |
|---|---|
| You want travellers to buy online, under your brand, without developers | Build Your Own Store |
| Your staff add an eSIM by hand to some bookings | Partner panel |
| You have a booking engine and developers | eSIM API |
Many agencies use two: the store for online sales, the panel for group bookings sold by staff. Both run on the same partner account and the same balance.
Ideas that sell more eSIMs
- Add it to the pre-departure email, three to five days before travel.
- Bundle it: include an eSIM in premium packages and show it as a benefit (bundling eSIMs).
- Offer regional plans for multi-country tours (regional vs country plans).
- Train front-desk staff with a two-line pitch: "Data from the moment you land, no roaming bill."
FAQ
Can a travel agency sell eSIMs under its own brand?
Yes. A white-label eSIM store shows only the agency's name, logo and colours on the store, emails, QR codes and install pages.
Does the traveller need to install an app?
No. They scan a QR code or tap an install link; supported iPhones and Android phones add the eSIM in the settings.
How does the agency get paid?
Customers pay through the agency's own Stripe account. Each eSIM sold is paid at wholesale from the agency's prepaid balance, and the difference is the agency's margin.
