Short answer: Wholesale eSIM for resellers in Italy lets travel agencies, phone shops and online businesses buy travel data plans at a partner price and sell them to Italian travellers under their own brand. The eSIM Signal partner programme offers plans in 210+ countries and regions, instant delivery by API or Business Panel, white label install pages and no contract or monthly minimum, with business pages available in Italian.
Why Italian travellers need travel eSIMs
Italians travel widely, and many of their favourite trips are outside the EU's free-roaming zone:
- Albania and the Balkans: Albania is a fast-growing summer destination for Italians, and it is outside the EU.
- Egypt, Tunisia and Morocco: Sharm el-Sheikh, Marsa Alam, Djerba and Marrakech are classic holidays.
- Turkey and the UAE: city breaks, shopping and stopovers.
- Long-haul: the USA, Japan, Thailand, the Maldives, Mexico and Brazil.
- Switzerland: business travel and weekends, outside EU roaming.
Every one of those is a trip where an Italian customer may face roaming charges, and where a travel eSIM sold with the booking is a natural extra.

Tip: add the eSIM to your booking confirmation with a short line in Italian on installing at home on Wi-Fi. Customers who install before they fly rarely need support.
Pricing and margin
Your margin is the difference between your partner price and the retail price you choose. Because there are no monthly fees or minimums, you pay only for the eSIMs you sell. eSIM wholesale pricing explained walks through how partners set their prices.
