Kyivstar has simplified eSIM connection – order an electronic SIM card with contract connection is now available online (identification through the NBU BankID service, or the “Diya” application).
No trips to the store with a passport
Previously, for eSIM, contract subscribers had to personally visit the store with a passport or sign documents through a courier, so Kyivstar was the first to introduce such an opportunity specifically for the contract form of service.
It is worth noting that the ability to switch to eSIM online is also available from competitors – Vodafone Ukraine and lifecell. Both operators offer eSIM connection not only in their applications, but also in monobank. But only for subscription clients, and for contract clients or corporateYou must visit the store/contact center with your original passport or a digital one from Diya. Therefore, the largest telecommunications operator in Ukraine with 23.9 million subscribers has surpassed its competitors here.
eSIM with Kyivstar contract – how to order the service online
Subscribers located abroad can also use the new eSIM remote connection service. The procedure itself is as simple as possible: you need to select from the list (gallery below) the appropriate tariff on the Kyivstar store website. Then, using BankID or Dii, upload the necessary documents, fill out the form and sign the contract online using a graphic signature. Next, scan the received QR code to activate the eSIM and complete the settings on your smartphone. And, of course, the smartphone must support this same eSIM.
Current Kyivstar Contract Tariffs for eSIM
For new subscribers, eSIM offers with a contract start from 150 UAH/month and reach 500 UAH/month, depending on the tariff and its content. Until the end of March there will be a temporary promotion – connect or switch to a contract number for 1 UAH, and pay for the next 3 months at the promotional price (20% discount from the regular price).

By the way, the possibility of switching to eSIM while maintaining the old contract tariff and its conditions for existing subscribers is also provided. True, the mechanism is different – you need to log in to the “My Kyivstar” application, go to the Help section and select Live Chat. After this, make an application to switch to eSIM, the service itself is free.
Kyivstar separately notes that 337 thousand subscribers have already switched to eSIM, and eSIM with a contract form of service is now used by 75 thousand users. The simplified procedure should significantly contribute to the popularization of eSIM and the contract at the same time.
Key advantages of eSIM and contract
Among the main advantages of eSIM is a higher level of protection (the virtual card cannot be stolen or lost), including against fraudulent card re-issuance schemes, and additional functionality: for example, remote activation and support for multiple profiles – up to 10 numbers (depending on manufacturer settings). Also, eSIM does not expire, so there is no need to update it.
As for the contract, perhaps the only tangible advantage of this form over the prepaid one is the “honest” monthly tariff
The fee for the tariff will be charged daily in equal parts during the calendar month instead of 28 days . Other advantages include the ability to connect up to 5 numbers to one account, deferred payment, and generally more interesting tariff content, but it all depends on the individual needs of each.
