The FIFA World Cup 2026 is shaping up to be the biggest World Cup in history and also the most geographically ambitious. For the first time ever, the tournament will be hosted across three countries: the USA, Canada, and Mexico. For fans, which means more matches, more cities, more cultures and a lot more border crossings.
If you’re planning to follow your team across North America, staying connected shouldn’t be the hardest part of your journey. That’s exactly where HOAM’s Dynamic eSIM™ comes in.
A Personal World Cup Journey
The World Cup has always been deeply personal for me, as someone who played soccer as a kid and still plays soccer recreationally today.
I was born in South Africa, and in 2010 I had the once-in-a-lifetime experience of attending the World Cup there. With my vuvuzela in the stands, I was fortunate to watch 6 matches in just 8 days, including Round of 16 and Quarterfinal games, traveling across the country and soaking in the atmosphere, the energy, and the unity that only the World Cup, the true Mondial, can create.
Back then, staying connected wasn’t simple. SIM cards were swapped, roaming bills were feared, and Wi‑Fi was unpredictable at best. You planned connectivity the same way you planned match tickets, carefully, and with a bit of luck.
Fast forward to today: the World Cup is coming to Toronto, the city where I reside. The excitement is back, but the way we travel has changed dramatically. Fans today expect instant access to maps, tickets, ridesharing, translations, streaming highlights, and sharing every unforgettable moment in real time.
That’s why we built HOAM the way we did.
Why World Cup 2026 Travelers Need a Smarter eSIM
World Cup 2026 isn’t a single-country trip. Many fans will:
- Land in the USA for group-stage matches
- Fly to Canada for knockout games in Toronto or Vancouver
- Cross into Mexico for the passion, color, and unforgettable stadium atmosphere
Traditional SIM cards struggle in this kind of journey. Multiple countries often mean:
- Buying multiple local SIMs
- Paying high roaming fees
- Losing service when crossing borders
- Wasting time at airports and kiosks
HOAM’s Dynamic eSIM™ was designed specifically for this kind of travel.

With HOAM, your connectivity moves as seamlessly as you do:
- One eSIM, three countries – Stay connected across the USA, Canada, and Mexico without changing SIMs
- Flexible destination add‑ons – Already connected on your way to the World Cup? Easily personalize your Dynamic eSIM™ by adding another destination, such as a European stopover, without replacing your eSIM or starting over
- Automatic network switching – The eSIM dynamically connects you to the best available local network
- Instant activation – No physical SIMs, no lines, no hassle

Soccer, Community, and Giving Back
Soccer has always been about more than just the game for me, it’s about community and impact.
Sixteen years ago, I founded Kicking for Kids (https://kickingforkids.com/), a soccer‑thon fundraiser supporting children with disabilities, using the power of soccer to create meaningful impact. HOAM is proud to be a sponsor of the Kicking for Kids event, helping extend that impact even further. It’s a project that remains very close to my heart, and it reminds me every year how sport can bring people together across borders, cultures, and backgrounds.
The World Cup represents that same spirit on a global scale and we’re proud that HOAM helps travelers stay connected while being part of something bigger.
