Sim card or esim

Joris — Sat, 27 Dec 2025 22:49:15 GMT

I want to add another sim card/ phone number to my account for my other kid. I have one subscription and account. Do I just order another sim? Or can I order an eSIM (want to make sure I don't order a Replacement card) ?

@Joris

each Public Mobile account is separate...no family or sharing plans. Your kid needs to download the app to their cellphone, create an account (and buy an esim) and activate the new plan with a new number. If hard sim is required, see if you can get a sim from Amazon for $5 with fast shipping.. free shipping if you or friend has a Prime account. See if there's a Mobile Klinik in your area as they have the PM sims available too.

Kid's account will need a separate email address from yours.

Hi @Joris,

Public Mobile only permits you to have 1 account/phone number for every email address. If you would like to provide your other child a phone number, you would need to register it under another email account + purchase a new Sim

Thanks. I didn't know you could order from Amazon. Will be here Wednesday. 👍
