Lyca Mobile Sweden: prepaid SIM, eSIM, registration and number transfer
Lyca Mobile Sweden sells prepaid SIM cards and eSIMs on the Telenor network, with 5G included and no contract. For visitors, newcomers and people who spend part of the year in Sweden this is a practical way to get a Swedish number. Nothing is posted to you in a parcel when you choose the eSIM, so the questions that matter are different from a normal shop: where can you use it, how do you register, and what happens with your old number?
What you can order
The range on lycamobile.se is prepaid plans called Fast Pris, each running for 30 days. The current plans combine mobile data with national minutes, international minutes and a roaming allowance for the EU, Ukraine and Moldova, plus an eSIM. The shop also has plans for seniors, mobile broadband, a student discount and rates without a bundle. Prices and allowances change with limited-time offers, so read them on the plan page on the day you order instead of relying on an old figure.
eSIM in three steps
Lyca says you can order the eSIM free of charge and activate it online. First check that your phone supports eSIM. Then choose a prepaid plan. After the order, scan the QR code that arrives by email and follow the on-screen steps. Important for anyone abroad: the Lyca SIM must be activated in Sweden. Once it is, you can use it internationally in line with your plan. An eSIM can sit next to your normal SIM thanks to dual-SIM, which suits a second number for a stay in Sweden.
Registration is compulsory
A Lyca prepaid card cannot be used until it has been registered. You register online with BankID or a valid photo ID, so keep your ID document handy. The same applies to eSIM and physical SIM cards. If you stopped halfway, the page lets you continue where you left off, and you can update the details later if they change.

Keeping your number and roaming
You can bring a number from another provider. You need your new Lyca number, the SIM number (ICCID), a registered SIM, your ID and details about the number you want to keep. The old number is verified with a one-time code. After the request you get a confirmation with a reference number, and the service is interrupted for some hours from the chosen porting date. For roaming, the home page says you can roam within the EU, the Nordic countries and the United Kingdom, and a roaming tool on the site lists what your destination includes and whether an add-on exists.
Topping up and getting help
You top up or renew a plan with the quick top-up on the website or in the My Lyca app. A physical SIM can be ordered on the site or by phone: call 3332 from a Lyca number or 085-205-4977 from another operator. The help centre has FAQs for eSIM, registration and roaming.
Cashback at Lyca Mobile
Go to the Lyca Mobile page at daily cashback, see the current rate (up to $5.61) and press the shop button. Then order your plan in the same visit. In your free account the cashback shows as open and becomes confirmed after Lyca has reported the order.
