Airalo Promo Code Saudi Arabia 2026

Yes: AV10 (10% off). Airalo: 10% off for returning customers. Its full terms are on its card above.

Airalo's offers page says most of its discount codes are meant for people buying their first eSIM, while a small number work for everyone. The company also says new and seasonal codes are added to the page as soon as they are released.

You type the code in while paying. On the website you will find a field called “Redeem Discount Code”; the app instead offers an option to apply a code or use Airmoney. One order cannot carry both a discount code and a referral code, so go with whichever saves more.

Referrals reward both sides. Each referral that ends in a real purchase earns you Airmoney credit, while the friend you invited gets money off the first eSIM they buy.

Three things are needed: eSIM support, a carrier-unlocked device, and no jailbreak or root. For a quick check, dial *#06# on the keypad; if an EID made up of 32 digits appears, the phone can take an eSIM.

Airalo keeps a compatibility list that covers Samsung, Google Pixel, iPhone, iPad (only the cellular versions) and more brands, though it says the list is not exhaustive. The key exceptions it points out are:

• iPhones sold for mainland China have no eSIM, and the same is true of most models from Hong Kong and Macau.
• Samsung phones intended for Taiwan, Hong Kong or China cannot use it, nor can most South Korean models.
• Huawei phones purchased in China have no eSIM support.
• For many other brands, support depends on the country or the carrier. If your phone is not listed, check with its manufacturer.

With most packages, the clock starts neither at purchase nor at installation; it begins once the eSIM picks up a network inside the country it covers. That means you can set it up in Saudi Arabia ahead of your trip and lose no days. A few packages are different and start counting the moment they are installed. The package details say so both before and after you buy, so give them a read.

Use a stable connection, preferably Wi-Fi, so the whole eSIM downloads. There are three ways to install: straight from the app, with a QR code scan, or by typing the details in yourself. If you install from the app, it asks where you are: pick Get Connected if you have already arrived, or Connect Later if you have not. Stay on the screens until activation finishes.

Once it is installed, switch the line on and choose it for mobile data, then adjust data roaming for the eSIM as instructed in the app. When installation fails and the screen shows “Something went wrong”, the View options button leads to replacement, refund and support choices.

Airalo's easiest suggestion is to take out your main SIM before leaving its coverage area. That way it cannot connect to any network abroad.

While you are away, make calls and send messages through Signal, Telegram or WhatsApp on your Airalo data rather than your regular line. Keep an eye on how much of the package you have used in the app, and go over your carrier's bill once you are home. Would you rather keep the SIM inside your phone? Then do the following:

• Before you are out of your network's range, put the phone in airplane mode, and do not switch it off until the new eSIM is ready to use.
• In the SIM or cellular settings, disable the line on your main SIM.
• Switch off data roaming for your main line. Android applies that setting to every SIM, though, so if roaming is required by the Airalo eSIM, leave it on and only disable the main line.
• Make the Airalo eSIM your data line and disable automatic switching of cellular data between SIMs.

The Saudi Arabia page on Airalo lists STC-network packages valid for 3, 5 or 7 days, or for 10, 15 or 30 days, and the ones listed right now all come with unlimited data. Since prices and allowances change, look at the package card before buying.

Visiting several countries? Besides global eSIMs, the same page has regional ones for North Africa and the Middle East. You only get calls and texts if the package includes them, so confirm what type of package it is before paying.

Ran out of data? Often the eSIM you already have can be topped up, so there is no need to buy another, and the top-up options show before and after purchase. Auto-renewal is also available: it renews the package once only 10% of the data remains, and you can switch it on or off in the eSIM details.

Refunds are requested in the app. Open “My eSIMs”, pick the package and look for the “Request Refund” button in its history; the alternative route is Profile, then Orders, then the order details. Only eligible orders show the button, and expired eSIMs or ones with no data left cannot be refunded.

The reason you select decides how the money comes back:

• Wrong purchase or a change of plans: you are refunded in Airmoney credit only, added to your account straight away.
• Installation trouble or an eSIM that did not work: you can take Airmoney credit or have the money returned to your payment method.
• Usually it takes between 7 and 10 working days for the money to reach your payment method, though with some banks it stretches as far as 30 days.
• If the eSIM was never installed, you can pass its QR code on to another person to use instead of asking for a refund.
• Cannot see the button? Message support on WhatsApp or tap the orange chat icon inside the app, preferably while the eSIM is still uninstalled and unused.

Cards from Mastercard, Visa, JCB, UnionPay and American Express are all accepted, along with Google Pay and PayPal. Apple Pay works too, though some countries are excluded, and Alipay is limited to the app.

Airmoney credit can cover the whole order or just part of it, with another method paying the rest. Select your payment method, press “Apply Code/ Use Airmoney”, then enter how much of your credit to spend.

Tabby, Tamara and other instalment services get no mention on the payment methods page Airalo publishes, so do not rely on them; check what is offered when you reach checkout.

Account holders get a share of every purchase returned as Airmoney credit for future orders, and that share rises as their total spend grows. No cashback is earned, though, on orders that use a referral reward or a discount code.

Because Airalo works out its spending tiers in its own base currency and gets exchange rates from a third party, the riyal figures below are approximate and may be slightly off. Your level does not drop if your credit expires. Here are the levels:

• Traveler: 5%, where every new user starts.
• Silver Traveler: 6% once you have spent roughly SAR 75.
• Gold Traveler: 7% from roughly SAR 262.5 in spending.
• Platinum Traveler: 10% from roughly SAR 750 in spending.
