Server tool list (12)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| search_destinations | Destinations on sale. `query` matches the name in any of 18 languages, the slug or the ISO code; empty lists everything. Each item: dest_code, slug, name, min_retail (USD, the cheapest fixed plan), unlimited_from (USD per day of a Daily Unlimited pass, or null), plan_count. Continue with get_plans(slug). |
| get_plans | The plans of one destination (slug from search_destinations). Each plan: id (the plan_id for an order), name, gb, days, retail (USD; per day when daily_unlimited is true), daily_unlimited, location_codes (the countries it covers), networks, speed, supports_topup. Also the published rating. |
| get_payment_methods | Checkout methods open right now: "crypto" (a hosted invoice: BTC, ETH, TRX, USDT), "card", and "wallet" (a prepaid balance, see create_wallet). `gateways` names the providers behind each method; a checkout that does not ask for one by name goes to the first, which is what these tools do. |
| create_checkout | Create an order for a person to pay. Returns token, checkout_url (the gateway's page: hand it to the person) and order_url (the order page in `lang`, with the QR code once paid: show it to the buyer only, the token is a secret). Confirm the plan and the price first: every call creates a new unpaid order, so do not retry while a checkout is open. `email` (optional) also gets the eSIM by mail. `period_num` (1–365) only for daily_unlimited plans. `topup_iccid` with a plan_id from list_topups tops up an existing eSIM. A 403 means the caller's jurisdiction is embargoed. To pay from a wallet use purchase_esim. |
| get_order | An order by its token. status goes pending (unpaid) → paid → provisioning → ready; also expired, underpaid, failed_provisioning, gift_waiting. When ready, esim.activation_code is the LPA string (render it as a QR code), with iccid, smdp and matching_id. After payment poll every ~10 s; delivery usually takes under a minute. |
| list_topups | Top-up plans that fit an eSIM we issued: plan_id, name, gb, days, retail. Order one with create_checkout(plan_id, topup_iccid=iccid) or, from a wallet, purchase_esim(plan_id, client_ref, topup_iccid=iccid). |
| get_usage | Remaining data and status of an eSIM we issued. |
| create_wallet | Mint a prepaid wallet with no account behind it and get its secret ONCE: `code` (32 hex characters) and the same secret as a 12-word `phrase`. Save the code before doing anything else and send it as `Authorization: Bearer <code>` on every wallet call; there is no recovery and no identity to prove. The balance is spent on eSIMs (retail price, cashback on every purchase) and never paid back out. accept_terms must be true (https://esimker.com/terms). Then create_deposit to fund it. Rate-limited and geo-blocked like checkout. |
| get_wallet | The wallet behind the code: ref (a public handle for support), balance_usd, cashback_percent, the deposit rules that apply to it now (min_usd, max_usd, first, bonus tiers), the last 50 transactions, orders (with their tokens — the wallet is where a buyer's order links are kept) and deposits. Needs the wallet code. |
| create_deposit | Open a top-up of the wallet and get what is needed to pay it. Floors: $10 for a wallet's first deposit, $1 after that; cap $1000 per deposit. Crypto deposits earn a bonus (+2% from $25, +3% from $50, +5% from $100, capped at $25); every purchase returns 3% cashback. With payment_method "crypto" pass a currency from: BTC, ETH, TRX, USDTTRC, USDTETH, USDTBSC — the answer then carries `pay`: the address, the exact amount in the coin (network fee included) and expires_at (about 15 minutes; after that open a new deposit). Send exactly `pay.amount` to `pay.address` on `pay.network`, then poll get_deposit(token) until status is paid. checkout_url is the hosted pay page for a person; card deposits have only that. Needs the wallet code. |
| get_deposit | One deposit of the wallet by its token: status pending → paid (credited, bonus included) | underpaid (nothing credited yet, the rest can still arrive) | expired. Poll every ~30 s after sending; crypto needs the network's confirmations. Needs the wallet code. |
| purchase_esim | Charge the wallet and issue an eSIM, no checkout. `client_ref` (1–64 chars) is your own reference for this purchase and makes the call idempotent: a retry with the same value returns the existing order without a second charge, so reuse it after a timeout and never invent a new one for the same purchase. `period_num` (1–365, default 7) only for daily_unlimited plans; the charge is price × days. `topup_iccid` with a plan_id from list_topups tops up an eSIM. Returns the order (status paid) with order_url; poll get_order(token) for ready and the activation code. A 402 is a short balance: create_deposit first. A wallet pays for at most 50 orders in 24 hours (429 beyond that; a retry answered from client_ref does not count). Needs the wallet code. |
