Supported payment methods
Crypto payments are processed through Cryptomus, which supports 300+ cryptocurrencies. The most common options are below — the full list appears at checkout.
Why crypto for an eSIM?
- No bank trail. Your travel data plan never shows up on a statement.
- No chargebacks, no expiry. What you load is what you spend, on your schedule.
- Pairs with anonymous accounts. No email, no KYC — just a balance and a QR code.
- No card declines abroad. Crypto doesn't care which country you're in or what your bank thinks about foreign transactions.

Frequently asked questions
Can I buy an eSIM with Bitcoin?
+
Yes. Silent eSIM accepts on-chain Bitcoin. Pick your top-up amount, choose Bitcoin at checkout, scan the invoice with any Bitcoin wallet, and your eSIM balance is credited once the transaction confirms — usually within 10 minutes.
Does Silent eSIM accept Lightning Network payments?
+
Yes. Lightning is the fastest option — sub-second settlement and near-zero fees. At checkout choose Lightning, scan the BOLT11 invoice with any Lightning wallet (Phoenix, Breez, Muun, Blue Wallet), and your balance is credited instantly.
Can I pay with USDT?
+
Yes — both TRC-20 (Tron network, cheapest fees) and ERC-20 (Ethereum mainnet) are supported. Choose USDT at checkout and select your preferred network.
Which other cryptocurrencies can I pay with?
+
Crypto checkout runs through Cryptomus, so alongside Bitcoin, Lightning and USDT you can pay in Ethereum, Litecoin, Monero and 300+ other cryptocurrencies. Pick your coin at checkout and pay the invoice from any wallet.
Can I pay with Monero?
+
Yes. Monero (XMR) is supported at checkout. Because Monero has no public transaction graph, it leaves the least on-chain trace of any option — pair it with our no-KYC signup and there is nothing tying the eSIM to your identity.
Is there a minimum top-up amount?
+
The minimum top-up is $5. There is no maximum for crypto payments. Card payments are capped at $200 per transaction.
Do I need an account or email to pay with crypto?
+
No. Crypto payments require zero account creation and zero email address. An anonymous browser token is the only thing linking you to your eSIM balance. Pay, get your QR code on-screen, scan it, done.
Can I top up the same eSIM again with crypto?
+
Yes. Top up as many times as you want — the balance adds to your existing eSIM. You never need to reinstall or get a new QR code. Your balance never expires so leftover credit from one trip rolls into the next.
What happens if my Bitcoin transaction is slow?
+
For on-chain Bitcoin your balance is credited after one confirmation. If the mempool is congested your eSIM order is held open — you do not need to repay. Lightning and USDT payments are near-instant and unaffected by mempool congestion.
