4. Purchases & Payments
4.1 Pricing & Currency
All prices are displayed in the currency you select within the app. Simphonia supports multiple currencies including USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, AUD, CAD, CHF, CNY, SEK, NZD, and BRL. Prices may vary based on destination, data amount, validity period, and the selected currency. The final price is confirmed at checkout before payment.
4.2 Payment Processing
Payments are processed securely through Stripe, a PCI-DSS Level 1 certified payment processor. We accept all major credit and debit cards, as well as Apple Pay and Google Pay where available. We do not store your full payment card details on our servers — all payment data is handled directly by Stripe.
4.3 Discount & Promotional Codes
Discount codes and promotional offers may be applied at checkout. Discount codes are subject to availability, validity periods, and usage limits. We reserve the right to modify or withdraw promotional offers at any time. Discount codes cannot be combined unless explicitly stated.
4.4 Referral Program
Registered users may participate in our referral program by sharing their unique referral code. When a referred user makes their first purchase, both the referrer and the referred user may receive a discount reward, subject to the current referral program terms. Referral rewards are issued as discount codes and cannot be exchanged for cash. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or terminate the referral program at any time.
4.5 Refund Policy
Refunds are available under the following conditions:
- Unused eSIM: Full refund within 30 days of purchase if the eSIM has not been installed or activated
- Technical issues: If we are unable to deliver a working eSIM profile, you are entitled to a full refund or replacement at no additional cost
- Used eSIM: Once data has been consumed, refunds are evaluated on a case-by-case basis
- EU consumers: If you are a consumer in the European Union, you have the right to withdraw from a purchase within 14 days. However, by purchasing and using a digital eSIM that is delivered immediately, you acknowledge and agree that you lose the right of withdrawal once the eSIM profile has been delivered and provisioned
To request a refund, contact our support team through the app or at support@simphonia.pt.
4.6 Order Confirmation
After a successful purchase, you will receive an order confirmation via email. Your eSIM profile(s) will be available in the app under your purchase history and eSIM management section.
5. eSIM Service Terms
5.1 Device Compatibility
It is your responsibility to ensure your device is eSIM-compatible and carrier-unlocked before purchasing. Simphonia is not liable for purchases made for incompatible devices. You can check device compatibility information in our FAQ section or by contacting support.
5.2 eSIM Delivery & Installation
eSIM profiles are delivered digitally and are typically available within minutes of a successful purchase. Installation is performed via a QR code or manual activation code provided in the app. Each eSIM profile can only be installed on one device and cannot be transferred to another device once installed.
5.3 Activation & Validity
Depending on the plan, an eSIM may activate upon first data use or upon installation. The validity period begins at the time of activation. Once expired, any remaining unused data is forfeited and cannot be recovered or refunded.
5.4 Top-Up
Certain active eSIM plans may be eligible for top-up, allowing you to purchase additional data. Top-up availability depends on the plan and the eSIM provider. Top-up purchases are non-refundable once the additional data has been applied.
5.5 Service Availability & Coverage
While we strive for reliable coverage, mobile data service is dependent on local network operators and may be affected by network congestion, maintenance, weather, geographic factors, or other circumstances outside our control. Coverage and speeds are not guaranteed.
5.6 Fair Usage
All plans are subject to fair usage policies. Plans are intended for personal, non-commercial use and may not be resold, redistributed, or used for commercial purposes. We reserve the right to suspend service for accounts that violate fair usage policies.
6. AI Chat Assistant
The Service includes an AI-powered chat assistant designed to help you find suitable eSIM plans, answer frequently asked questions, and provide general support. The AI assistant is powered by third-party large language model providers (currently OpenAI and Google Gemini).
Please be aware that:
- AI responses are generated automatically and may not always be accurate or complete
- The AI assistant should not be relied upon for critical decisions — for complex issues, please contact our human support team
- Chat conversations may be reviewed to improve service quality
- Do not share sensitive personal information (such as passwords or full payment details) in the chat
- The AI assistant can perform certain actions on your behalf (such as adding items to your cart) when you explicitly request it

Opting out of marketing emails does not affect transactional communications.

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Portugal, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
If you are a consumer residing in the European Union, you also benefit from any mandatory provisions of the consumer protection law of your country of residence. Nothing in these Terms affects your rights as a consumer under applicable EU law.
Any disputes not resolved amicably shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Lisbon, Portugal, subject to any mandatory consumer protection jurisdiction rules applicable to you.
15. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or if modification is not possible, severed. The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
