    eSIM options

    On iPhone 13 2x esims OR 1x esim & 1x physical sim can be active at any time. You can have up to 5 esims on your phone but only 2 can ever be active at a time (1 esim active if your physical sim is active)

    eSim is available on CellC

    I understand this but you have not answered the question. Can an existing pre-paid physical sim be sim swapped to an esim?
