Partner is one of the networks your eSIM may use in Israel. Here is who actually decides which network you get, and what to do with that.
Quick answer
Partner is a mobile network operator in Israel, and one of the networks a travel eSIM may reach through roaming.
| Item | Partner |
|---|---|
| LTE (4G) | B1, B3, B7, B20 |
| 5G NR | Not verified |
| 5G launched | Live |
| Network code (MCC-MNC) | 425-01 |
Checked against the sources on 2026-10-12. Only the bands a source confirmed are listed; the network may run others too.
An eSIM can only use Partner if your phone supports at least one band in this table. Before you fly, open your model's spec page on the maker's site and compare its LTE and 5G band lists.
Mobile networks in Israel are licensed, and their spectrum assigned, by the Ministry of Communications (MoC). The bands above are the ones it allocates. A problem with the local network's own service goes to the operator first; a problem with your eSIM plan comes to us.
From the supplier record behind each package, 35 of the 59 plans we currently sell for Israel declare Partner as a network the profile can reach, at 5G. The figure comes from the same catalogue that prices the plan pages, and it moves when the supplier revises the record.
| Network | LTE bands | 5G bands |
|---|---|---|
| Partner | B1, B3, B7, B20 | Not verified |
| Cellcom | B1, B3, B5, B20 | n78 |
| Pelephone | B1, B3, B7, B20 | n28, n78 |
A band shared across networks is one a single phone can use on all of them.
Nearly every travel eSIM is a roaming product: the profile picks a network by an order the supplier sets, not by the buyer. If Partner is weak where you are, try selecting Cellcom or Pelephone manually in the network settings, and keep data roaming on for the eSIM profile.
35 of our plans name Partner as reachable, but that is not a guarantee. Travel plans run over roaming agreements, so the network depends on the supplier behind the plan, your device and where you are.
At least one of these, LTE: B1, B3, B7, B20. Your phone's band list is on the maker's spec page for your model, under "Cellular" or "Network".
Yes. Partner has run commercial 5G. A travel plan only gets it when the plan permits 5G, your phone supports one of those bands, and you are inside 5G coverage. Miss any one and you fall back to 4G.
Check the carrier name at the top of the screen, or open the mobile-network settings and look at the operator list. If signal is poor, try selecting a network manually instead of automatic, but only one your plan actually supports.
