Travelex Confidence offers a free 1GB eSIM with TURISMO26

Travelex Confidence customers in Brazil can earn a free 1GB Travelextur eSIM by completing an eligible foreign-exchange operation worth at least US$500, or the equivalent in another currency, with code TURISMO26.
The Tourism Month campaign runs from September 1 through September 30, 2026, while its allocated vouchers last. The US$500 threshold applies to one operation. Two US$250 transactions do not combine to qualify, and a US$1,000 transaction still earns one voucher.
The traveler answer: use
TURISMO26on one qualifying Travelex Confidence operation and watch for the email the next day. Redeem by October 31 and choose the destination carefully because it cannot be changed later. Roaming eSIM is the simpler direct purchase when you do not already need a qualifying currency service.
Three Travelex Confidence products qualify
The campaign applies to these completed operations:
- foreign currency in cash;
- loading an international prepaid card; and
- an international transfer.
Other Travelex Confidence products are excluded. The transaction must reach US$500 or the equivalent in the selected foreign currency and must finish with TURISMO26 attached.
The threshold is per operation, not per customer total. Splitting an exchange across several smaller payments can leave every transaction below the minimum. Spending twice the minimum does not create a second gift from that same operation.
The September deadline and October redemption are different
The qualifying foreign-exchange operation must be completed from September 1 through September 30. Voucher stock can run out sooner, and the organizers can amend or end the campaign by publishing new rules.
The voucher sent after a qualifying operation remains redeemable through October 31, 2026. That is a redemption deadline, not an extension of the transaction window.
During redemption, the traveler chooses an activation date as late as March 31, 2027. These three dates solve different parts of the process:
| Step | Final published date |
|---|---|
| Complete qualifying Travelex operation | September 30, 2026 |
| Redeem the emailed eSIM voucher | October 31, 2026 |
| Select an activation date | March 31, 2027 |
Do not leave redemption until the activation month. An unredeemed code becomes unavailable after October 31 even when the intended trip is in early 2027.
How the Travelextur redemption works
Travelex Confidence says it sends the voucher instructions by email on the day after the qualifying operation. The code gives a 100% discount on one campaign eSIM.
The redemption flow is:
- open the Travelextur Tourism Month page;
- enter the code from the Travelex email;
- choose the destination and activation date;
- sign in to Travelextur or create an account; and
- receive the one-use QR code by email.
Check the redemption email address before submitting. Save the QR code and installation steps offline, then install on stable Wi-Fi. The rules say the profile cannot be restored after deletion, so do not remove it during the trip.
Seven destination choices have different coverage
The campaign groups redemption into South America, Europe, Asia, Oceania, the United States, North America and Other Countries. The published counts are six countries in South America, 34 in Europe, seven in Asia, two in Oceania, the United States by itself, three in North America and 71 individual choices under Other Countries.
The selection made at redemption cannot be changed. Open the live country list before choosing a regional label, especially for a border trip. A country appearing in a broad everyday idea of Europe or the Caribbean is not proof that it sits in the campaign plan.
The rules specifically exclude the Caribbean regional plan and a list of destinations including the Bahamas, Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, Fiji, Nepal, Iran, Cameroon, Mauritius and several island territories. Use the current campaign page as the authority for the full exclusions.
One free gigabyte, with optional paid data
The included benefit is 1GB. Duration and coverage depend on the selected plan, so the redemption page must be checked before activation.
The campaign allows the traveler to add paid data during redemption. This is optional and treated as a normal Travelextur sale. Compare its final price and validity with a separate plan rather than assuming an add-on is automatically the best value.
The complimentary gigabyte cannot be converted to money, a Travelex discount, a refund or credit. If an installation or connection problem occurs, the rules direct the traveler to Travelextur support while still abroad and while the plan remains valid.
Compatibility and local networks still matter
The profile needs an eSIM-compatible, carrier-unlocked phone and installation over Wi-Fi. It connects through local partner networks, so signal and speed vary with the destination, location and visited network.
The campaign rules do not establish carrier voice calls, SMS, a local number or a universal hotspot promise. Confirm those product fields before relying on them. Keep the usual SIM active for its phone number if needed, with its data roaming disabled unless the home plan includes the destination.
Travelex gift or Roaming eSIM
The Travelex Confidence offer wins when the traveler already needs at least US$500 of an eligible currency service and secures the voucher. In that case, the first gigabyte has no separate price.
Roaming eSIM wins for a straightforward connectivity purchase. There is no currency-exchange minimum, qualifying product list or September transaction window. Travelers can compare allowance, validity, network speed, named operators when supplied and top-up eligibility on the selected destination page, with 24/7 support available.
π Roaming eSIM wins when data is the actual purchase: choose the plan for the route instead of increasing, splitting or timing a financial transaction to earn one gigabyte. The Travelex offer wins as an extra when the qualifying exchange was already necessary.
Do not perform an unnecessary transfer or buy more foreign currency merely to obtain the voucher. Compare exchange rates, fees, payment method and the amount genuinely needed for the trip.
Four regional alternatives for a complete trip
The campaign's main groupings can be compared with a South America Roaming eSIM, Europe 33 Areas Roaming eSIM, Asia 20 Areas Roaming eSIM or North America Roaming eSIM. Check each product's live country list because these are independent plans, not copies of Travelextur's regions.
Our country eSIM versus regional eSIM guide helps with route selection, while the travel data calculator shows when 1GB is likely to be enough.
Ten questions about the TURISMO26 eSIM offer
Which foreign-exchange operations qualify?
Foreign currency in cash, an international prepaid-card load and an international transfer through Travelex Confidence.
What is the minimum value for one operation?
US$500 or the equivalent in another foreign currency.
Can two smaller operations be combined?
No. The rules say two US$250 operations do not qualify, while one US$1,000 operation earns one voucher.
Where must I enter TURISMO26?
The qualifying Travelex Confidence operation must be finalized with the campaign code TURISMO26.
When should the voucher email arrive?
The day after the operation that creates eligibility, according to the campaign rules.
By when must the voucher be redeemed?
October 31, 2026. After that date the voucher becomes unavailable.
How far ahead can activation be scheduled?
The selected activation date can be as late as March 31, 2027.
Can I change the destination after redemption?
No. The destination choice is final, so verify the country list before submitting it.
Can a deleted Travelextur profile be restored?
No. The QR code is for one use and the rules say a deleted profile cannot be recovered.
Can I pay for more data on the same order?
Yes. Additional data can be added during redemption, but it is an ordinary paid Travelextur sale.
