KT Skylife Supports eSIM Self-Activation at Direct Shop

Free e-SIM Download Available Until the End of This Month
Get SKY Coupons Worth Up to 120,000 KRW

[Asia Economy Reporter Minyoung Cha] KT Skylife announced on the 19th that it will launch an eSIM self-activation service on its online mall, Direct Shop.

eSIM is a method without a physical SIM card, allowing activation anytime and anywhere. Customers who own a phone with dual SIM functionality can use a total of two numbers, including a physical SIM and an eSIM.

Previously, customers had to purchase a physical SIM card at convenience stores or receive it by mail from a budget phone operator, but these inconveniences disappear when using eSIM.

Customers can enter the mobile 'eSIM Self-Activation' menu on the Skylife Direct Shop and select their desired plan. Then, after identity verification, self-activation, and QR code scanning, they can download the eSIM and use it immediately.

Skylife is offering free eSIM downloads until the end of December, and customers who subscribe to eSIM will receive SKY coupons worth up to 120,000 KRW, which can be used like cash at the Skylife Shop.

Jung Hoon, Head of Marketing Services at Skylife, said, “The Skylife Direct Shop eSIM self-activation service allows customers to conveniently activate budget phones anytime and anywhere without being restricted by time or place, and it is expected to improve subscription convenience and customer satisfaction.”

Meanwhile, Skylife has also launched the first dedicated wearable Watch (smartwatch) plan among KT budget phone (MVNO) operators. It offers a basic fee of 6,600 KRW including tax, with 250MB of basic data + 200Kbps speed, 50 minutes of voice calls, and 250 text messages. It can be combined with 17 types of basic budget phone plans.
