Visiting Iran is an unforgettable journey — from ancient Persian history to warm hospitality and breathtaking landscapes. But while Iran opens its arms to tourists, it also presents a few unique challenges when it comes to staying connected and managing money.
You might be asking:
Can I use my credit card in Iran?
How do I get mobile internet while traveling?
Is there a safe way to pay without carrying lots of cash?
Good news: There’s a simple solution for all of these concerns — and you can get it all online in under 5 minutes.
Meet your essential travel kit for Iran:
✔️ Tourist Bank Card
✔️ Tourist SIM Card
In Iran, international cards like Visa and Mastercard don't work due to sanctions. But that doesn't mean you need to carry stacks of cash.
With the Tourist Bank Card, you can:
Pay at restaurants, shops, hotels, and bazaars
Book domestic flights, trains, and buses online
Use it on taxi apps, museums, and tourist sites
Withdraw cash from local ATMs when needed
Track your expenses with SMS notifications
It’s a prepaid Iranian debit card, loaded with your currency (USD, EUR, etc.) and converted into Iranian Rial. It works everywhere local cards are accepted — and that’s almost everywhere.
✅ Order online in minutes
✅ Delivered at the airport or hotel
✅ Refund unused balance when you leave
Don’t rely on expensive international roaming or weak hotel Wi-Fi. With a Tourist SIM Card, you’ll have:
High-speed 4G internet
Local and international calling
Access to ride-hailing apps (like Snapp & Tapsi)
Online booking, translation apps, Google Maps
Social media and messaging apps like WhatsApp & Telegram
You can choose from flexible data packages depending on your trip duration (7–30 days), and recharge online anytime.
✅ Pre-activated SIM
✅ Instant pickup at airport or hotel
✅ Works with all unlocked phones
Imagine arriving in Tehran or Shiraz — you’ve just landed. You want to:
Call your hotel or local guide 📞
Book a domestic flight or train to your next city 🛫
Order a Snapp ride from the airport 🚕
Pay for your first Iranian meal 🍛
Share your journey online 📸
With your Tourist SIM Card + Bank Card combo, you can do all of that — immediately and effortlessly.
The best part? You don’t need to figure it out at the airport.
You can order both the Tourist SIM and Tourist Bank Card online before your trip. Just provide your passport info, select your pickup location, and you’ll receive everything on arrival or at your hotel.
No paperwork. No queues. No stress.
Solo backpackers
Couples on a cultural getaway
Families traveling with kids
Business travelers or digital nomads
Anyone who wants safety, ease, and comfort
Iran is a modern country with rich culture, deep history, and kind people — but when it comes to international banking and connectivity, it’s different from most destinations.
So prepare like a pro.
Get your Tourist SIM + Bank Card combo and enjoy:
Full mobile access
Safe, cashless payments
