Gift Data: how sending travel data as a gift works
How to send someone eSIM data for a birthday, a holiday or simply because you want to.

Travel data is a genuinely practical gift for anyone with a trip coming up — no guessing sizes or styles, and it's ready the moment they need it. BrisqNet's Gift Data feature lets you send a data plan to someone else's account, whether they're already a BrisqNet customer or brand new to it.
How it works, depending on who you're sending to
If the recipient already has a BrisqNet account with an eSIM installed, your gift is applied directly to their existing eligible eSIM — there's nothing new for them to set up. If they're new to BrisqNet, they go through the normal onboarding journey to receive their eSIM along with the gifted data, ready to install before their trip.
Sending a gift
Choose a live plan on brisqnet.com/esim for the destination you have in mind, then send it as a gift from your BrisqNet account. The recipient claims it securely within the app — Gift Data purchases and claims aren't handled on the public website.
Good occasions for it
- A birthday or holiday gift for someone with an upcoming trip
- A thoughtful add-on for a friend studying abroad
- A surprise for someone travelling to see you, so they're connected the moment they land
If something goes wrong
If you realise you've sent a gift to the wrong recipient, contact BrisqNet support as soon as possible with your order reference — this is easiest to fix before the gift has been claimed. See the Gift Data Terms for the full detail on refunds and claim windows.
Does the recipient need to already have a BrisqNet account?
No — if they're new to BrisqNet, they'll receive an eSIM along with the gifted data as part of the onboarding journey.
Can I gift data if I don't have a BrisqNet plan myself?
You need a BrisqNet account and a valid payment method to send Gift Data, though you don't need an active travel plan of your own at the time.
