Top eSIM providers in Mexico in 2026

Mexico's eSIM market runs on infrastructure a handful of companies actually own. Altan Redes and Red Compartida sell wholesale capacity to smaller operators, and AT&T Mexico and Movistar sell it directly through their own sub-brands. eSIM providers in Mexico mostly rent capacity on one of these networks rather than building a network of their own.

EukaPay reviewed the public-facing sites of seven Mexican eSIM sellers. None had a working crypto or stablecoin checkout at the time of writing. Most did not publish a payment-methods list at all.

Four of the seven companies run as mobile virtual network operators on Altan Redes, Mexico's wholesale mobile network.

Dalefon

(dalefon.mx), founded around 2023 by Victor Jose Gutierrez, is an eSIM-first digital MVNO on Altan. It sells local plans plus an eSIM Internacional product covering more than 200 destinations.

Diri Movil

(diri.mx) is a digital MVNO on Altan and was among the first Mexican MVNOs to sell eSIM, starting in 2022.

Pillofon

(pillofon.mx), founded in 2020, is a creator-led MVNO that runs on Altan through Diri Telecom's network infrastructure, the same company behind Diri Movil. Its eSIM plans start from MXN 149.

Wimo Telecom

(wimotelecom.com), based in Guadalajara, is an MVNO on Red Compartida and Altan selling prepaid packages, MiFi devices, and eSIM.

wim

, also known as Somos Wim (somoswim.com), is AT&T Mexico's own eSIM-only digital sub-brand, founded in 2024 under general manager Irma Wilde. It sells 3GB to 240GB memberships with roaming across Mexico, the US, and Canada.

Weex Mobile

(weex.mx) is an app-first digital MVNO on the Movistar network, selling micro-packages and eSIM. Its published payment methods are cash and card through Mercado Libre.

Travel Connected

, also known as TC Travel Connected (tcesim.com), is based in Mexico City's Polanco district and has press coverage dating to 2016. It sells international travel eSIM and hotspot rental direct to consumers, and it is the white-label supplier behind Aeromexico's own eSIM product, with an agency reseller program on top.

Here is what each seller's own site shows at checkout.

Payment methods above are what each company's own site listed when this sheet was compiled, August 27, 2026.

Only one of the seven companies publishes a payment-methods list, and it stops at cash and card. The other six do not publish enough checkout detail to confirm either way. Either reading points to the same gap: Mexico's eSIM providers are not showing up in the small but growing set of merchants who accept stablecoins or crypto.

An eSIM company does not have to choose between its existing checkout and crypto. Stablecoin payments for MVNOs work as an added rail, not a replacement. EukaPay sets a Mexico-facing eSIM seller up to add a stablecoin or crypto checkout option alongside whatever it already runs. The option is a payment link or a hosted checkout page, and a non-developer can turn either one on directly from the dashboard.

EukaPay gives a merchant instant crypto-to-fiat conversion at a locked exchange rate to remove your exposure to crypto price swings, support for most major cryptocurrencies, and settlement in USD, EUR, GBP, and CAD to your bank account. A crypto payment settles on-chain, so protection against chargebacks is a property of the payment method.

A Mexico-facing seller with roaming plans into the US and Canada, like wim, already has customers paying across borders. A rail that does not depend on a Mexican card network or a peso-denominated account can complete a purchase a local-only checkout cannot. EukaPay adds this rail. It does not ask a merchant to move off its existing checkout.

Sign up at the

EukaPay dashboard

to add a crypto and stablecoin checkout option to an existing eSIM storefront. Read the

API documentation

to see how payment links and checkout pages fit into a build. A staging environment lets a developer (or coding agent) test the flow before it goes live.

Does EukaPay settle payments in Mexican pesos?

No. EukaPay settles fiat to a merchant's bank account in USD, EUR, GBP, or CAD, not MXN. A Mexico-facing eSIM seller adding EukaPay needs an account in one of those four currencies to receive fiat settlement.

Which cryptocurrencies can a customer pay an eSIM seller with?

EukaPay supports most major cryptocurrencies like BTC, ETH, LTC, SOL, USDC, and USDT on the pay-in side.

Does adding crypto payments mean an MVNO has to drop its existing checkout?

No. EukaPay adds a stablecoin or crypto option next to whatever payment methods a merchant already runs.

What does EukaPay onboarding involve?

A merchant signs up, completes verification, provides legal business information, then generates an API key. A staging environment is available for development.

Does a crypto payment protect an eSIM seller from chargebacks?

A crypto payment settles on-chain, so protection against chargebacks is a property of the payment method.

Does an eSIM company need a developer to accept crypto payments?

Not for a payment link or a hosted checkout page. Both can be set up from the EukaPay dashboard without custom code. The API is there for a business that wants a deeper integration.

Is a locked exchange rate optional, or does it apply to every payment?

The locked exchange rate applies by default to every conversion EukaPay processes, on both pay-ins and payouts.

Are Dalefon, Diri Movil, Pillofon, and Wimo Telecom the same company?

No. Dalefon and Wimo Telecom are independent MVNOs. Pillofon runs on Diri Telecom's network infrastructure, the same company behind Diri Movil, so those two share an underlying operator even though they sell under separate brands.
