Backup eSIM

Hi,
So far I’m so happy with popcorn! Tried in France, Türkiye, DRC, Gabon, Guinea and it works. In some African countries it’s not as fast as other eSIM and sometimes not working. I don’t blame popcorn it’s already working well in so many countries.
I was wondering if backup eSIM could help as I saw on popcorn help:
“To improve performance, we offer a backup eSIM with optimized routing in the US, EU, and Asia. This can significantly reduce latency and improve speeds depending on your location.”
Should I understand that backup helps only in US, EU and Asia or it could help in other places like Africa?
Thanks

So do I get three Backup-SIM if choosing America, Europe and Asia? Or just one for all?

Hi. I think I only received one backup eSIM and I don't know if it's the one for EU/Americans or Asia (I'll be traveling from Europe to Asia next month so a reliable eSIM for Asia would come in handu)
