Install

How do I install the eSIM Tabby MCP server?

eSIM Tabby is a hosted endpoint at https://esimtabby.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 11 exposed · ~1,211 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
cancel_order ~104

Cancel an order and refund it. Only possible while the eSIM is uninstalled. Once the profile has been installed on a device the provider refuses to take it back, and this returns an error instead — send the user to support. Card payments refund automatically. A USDC payment has no on-chain refund rail, so the order becomes `refund_pending` and support returns the money by hand.

NameTypeReqDescription
order_idstringyesorder_id of the order to cancel

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

create_checkout ~310

Start a purchase — the step after the user picks a plan from search_esim_plans. Call it with that plan's plan_id (get_plan_details shows the current price first). Returns an order_id and where to pay, on the rail you asked for: 'card' (the default) returns a checkout_url — a hosted Stripe page for a human to open in a browser; once they say they've paid, call get_order_status to confirm and carry on to the QR code. 'x402' returns an x402_url for a wallet to settle in USDC, with no browser step — only choose it if you actually hold a wallet. Never accepts payment details — a card is entered on the hosted page, and a wallet signs for itself. Calling it again for the same plan reuses the pending order (reused: true) instead of creating a duplicate.

NameTypeReqDescription
pay_withstringHow the buyer intends to pay. 'card' returns a hosted checkout link for a human to open in a browser. 'x402' returns an x402_url for a wallet tool to settle in USDC, with no browser step — only choos…
plan_idstringyesplan_id from search_esim_plans

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

create_topup_checkout ~284

Buy more data for an eSIM the user already has — the step after list_topup_options. Call it with the order_id of the fulfilled eSIM and a plan_id chosen from list_topup_options. The top-up lands on the existing eSIM: same QR code, nothing to re-install. Returns a new order_id and where to pay, exactly like create_checkout: 'card' returns a checkout_url for a human to open, confirmed via get_order_status; 'x402' returns an x402_url for a wallet to settle in USDC. Never accepts payment details — a card is entered on the hosted page, and a wallet signs for itself.

plan_idstringyesplan_id from list_topup_options

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

get_esim_activation ~67

Get the QR code and activation details for a purchased eSIM. Not read-only: like get_order_status, an order that is not ready yet is advanced first, so this can change the order's state.

get_esim_usage ~40

How much data an active eSIM has used, and how much is left.

NameTypeReqDescription
order_idstringyesorder_id of a fulfilled order

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

get_order_status ~73

Check an order. Call this after the user says they've paid. Not read-only: an order still in progress is advanced first — payment is confirmed and the provider order placed or collected — so the status can change as a result of calling this.

NameTypeReqDescription
order_idstringyesorder_id from create_checkout

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

get_plan_details ~37

Full details of one eSIM plan, including current price.

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

list_my_orders ~20

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

NameTypeReqDescription

No examples provided.

list_topup_options ~80

Data top-ups that can be added to an eSIM the user already has. A top-up extends the existing eSIM — same QR code, nothing to re-install. Not every plan is reloadable; this returns an empty list when none apply.

NameTypeReqDescription

No examples provided.

pay_order ~121

Pay for an order in USDC over x402, without opening a browser. Only for an MCP client that signs x402 payments itself: call it once for the payment requirements, then repeat the call carrying the signed payment in _meta['x402/payment'] and it settles and starts the eSIM. If your wallet is a separate tool, make an x402 request to the order's x402_url instead — this tool cannot take a payment on a wallet tool's behalf.

Common questions

What is the eSIM Tabby MCP server?

eSIM Tabby is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.esimtabby/esimtabby. Buy and manage travel eSIM data plans in the conversation. Pay by card (Stripe) or USDC over x402. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://esimtabby.com/mcp).

Is the eSIM Tabby MCP server safe to use?

eSIM Tabby scores 92 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the eSIM Tabby MCP server expose?

eSIM Tabby exposes 11 tools: search_esim_plans, get_plan_details, create_checkout, pay_order, get_order_status, and 6 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,211 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the eSIM Tabby MCP server require authentication?

Yes. eSIM Tabby asked us for credentials when we connected, so you will need to authorise it in your MCP client before it can do anything.

Is the eSIM Tabby MCP server still maintained?

eSIM Tabby is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
