How it works

Three steps from boarding gate to bandwidth.

  1. 01

    Pick a destination

    Browse 190+ countries with $/GB filtering, value-rank sorting, and a built-in mini-guide for visa, plugs, and local payment apps. Pricing is transparent — what you see is what you pay.

  2. 02

    Pay with your wallet

    Top-up once via Stripe (cards) or USDC (crypto). Future purchases run on-balance — no Stripe redirect, no 3-D Secure, no checkout fatigue. International billing, no FX gotchas.

  3. 03

    Tap install — you're online

    One tap fires Apple's eSIM universal link straight into iOS Settings. No QR scan dance, no APN config. Median time from purchase to first packet: under 60 seconds.

Who uses ZhiEra

One product, four kinds of travelers.

Vacation traveler

One-week trip, one country. Buy a 5GB / 7-day pack at the gate, install before takeoff, online the moment you land. Zero airport-counter time.

Digital nomad

Three months, six countries. Buy regional bundles ($/GB optimized), stack 180-day plans for half-year coverage, keep the same number for OTPs via Twilio.

Family trip

One parent buys, gifts cards to family by username. Each phone gets its own activation code; everyone connects to the same plan tier without sharing accounts.

Business traveler

Last-minute Tokyo trip Friday night. Top up the wallet on AmEx, buy 10GB / 7-day at the airport gate, expense the receipt — and get a private US virtual number for sensitive 2FA codes.

Philosophy

We sweat the seconds.

Most travel apps treat your time like it's free — a loading spinner here, an extra tap there, a confirmation dialog that exists to absolve their lawyer. We treat it like the most expensive thing on the trip.

Every screen has a budget: 800 ms to first paint, three taps maximum from a cold launch to a connected eSIM. The whole catalog of 190+ countries is one search field, not a dropdown of dropdowns. The chat is encrypted because if a friend can't see what we can't see, we kept the deal we shouldn't have had to make.

"

The kind of small, careful product where you can feel the engineering culture in every animation. They sweat the seconds.

Engineering

Software discipline meets carrier infrastructure.

Fast by default

Server-rendered home, geo-aware recommendations, optimistic UI sends. Every screen loads under one second on a cold start over 4G.

820 ms median home p50, 4G

Privacy as a feature

Friend chat is end-to-end encrypted; we cannot read it. Cards are tokenized through Stripe; the PAN never enters our infrastructure. We do not sell data.

0 ad SDKs, ever

Global from day one

Backend in Colorado; CDN at edge. Carrier rails in 190+ countries. The product is bilingual in English and Simplified Chinese — both first-class, neither machine-translated.

2 langs every screen, manually translated
Trust & compliance

The plumbing you cannot see, audited by the people you would expect.

End-to-end encryption

X25519 key exchange, HKDF-SHA256 derivation, AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption. Keys live on-device only.

Stripe-tokenized payments

SAQ-A PCI scope. Card numbers are tokenized in Stripe Elements before they reach our servers. We touch payment intent IDs and last-4 only.

GDPR & CCPA aligned

Access, delete, export, opt-out — all available by emailing business@zhiera.com. EU transfers are governed by Standard Contractual Clauses.

US-incorporated

ZhiEra LLC is a Colorado limited liability company in good standing. We are a real entity with a real address that you can serve process to.

HSTS & HTTPS-only

Public surfaces are HTTPS-only with HSTS preload-eligible config. The mobile app refuses non-HTTPS API base URLs in release builds.

30-day breach notice

Security incidents that materially affect your data are disclosed within 30 days, with what happened, what we know, and what we're doing.
