Topping Up vs. Yoho Care: What’s the Difference?
Before we dive into the ‘how,’ let’s clarify the ‘what.’ Understanding the difference between a manual top-up and Yoho Care helps you make the best decision for your needs.
-
Manual Top-Up: This is your go-to action when you know you’re going to need more data. Perhaps your trip got extended, or you’ve been using more data-heavy apps than planned. A manual top-up allows you to proactively purchase a new data package for your existing eSIM, ensuring a seamless connectivity experience.
-
Yoho Care: Think of Yoho Care as your connectivity insurance policy. It’s a unique Yoho Mobile feature that automatically provides a safety net of backup data if you unexpectedly run out, so you’re never completely disconnected. It’s perfect for emergencies, allowing you to find your hotel, send a critical message, or… top up your main data plan. It’s peace of mind, built-in.

What is Yoho Care and How Does It Protect You?
Imagine you’re on the last day of your trip to Europe, navigating to the airport, and your data runs out unexpectedly. This is where the magic of Yoho Care happens. It’s not a plan you buy; it’s a promise we make.

We provide a complimentary, basic-speed data connection to ensure you can still use essential services like maps, messaging apps (like WhatsApp or iMessage), and email.

It’s one of the key differentiators that sets Yoho Mobile apart—we prioritize keeping you connected, no matter what. This commitment to user experience is why travelers trust us as their primary connectivity solution.
