Buy a travel eSIM with your AI agent

Short answer
  • goAFK is a travel eSIM MCP server: ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor and other AI assistants search plans for 148 countries right in the chat.
  • The agent picks a plan and gives you a payment link; you pay by card, Apple Pay, crypto or a Russian MIR card via SBP. The agent never charges anything itself.
  • Free to connect: no API key, no account, nothing to install. goAFK is listed in the Claude connectors directory.

Example: what the agent returns

Ask your agent, for example: "Find me an eSIM for a week in Turkey, up to 5 GB." It runs a search and shows plans. This is what goAFK returns for Turkey right now:

PlanPrice
1 GB · 7 days$1.35
3 GB · 7 days$3.08
Unlimited · 7 days$13.32
Prices come from the current goAFK catalog and update automatically. The agent sees the same prices as the website.

MCP server tools

The server's 4 tools are all read-only; none of them buys or charges anything:

  • search_esim_plans — Find prepaid travel eSIM data plans for a country, city or region (e.g. "Japan", "Tokyo", "Europe", "UK"), cheapest first, each with a checkout link. Also returns multi-country plans that include the country.
  • get_checkout_link — Return the goAFK checkout link for a plan_id from search_esim_plans, with the plan details and what happens after payment. The person pays on goafk.io; nothing is charged by this tool.
  • list_destinations — All countries goAFK covers with the lowest price for each, plus multi-country regions (Europe, Asia, CIS, Worldwide...).
  • esim_setup_help — How to check the phone supports eSIM, install the eSIM after purchase (iPhone or Android) and turn it on at the destination.

What the agent does, and what it does not

The agent searches plans by country, city or region, compares data, validity and price, explains how to install the eSIM and gives you the payment link for the plan you pick.

You pay on goafk.io yourself. The agent never sees your card and cannot buy anything without you. That is deliberate: a person always confirms the purchase.

Why use an agent for this

  • No browsing and comparing by hand: describe the trip in plain words.
  • It considers the whole route and suggests a regional plan when several countries are involved.
  • Same price as the website and the Telegram bot @goafk_bot.
  • Payment from Russia works too: MIR cards and SBP in rubles, plus crypto.
