eSIM Price Drop: 1GB of Travel Data Is Now €1.99 Flat in 30 Top Destinations

We just made travel data pricing boring – and we think that’s great news. As of this week, the entry-level 1GB / 7-day eSIM plan costs a flat €1.99 in 28 of the 30 most popular summer destinations we cover. The two exceptions are even cheaper: the United States and Türkiye, where 1GB costs €1.49.

No more checking what data costs in each country before you book. Whether you land in Tokyo, Cancun or Dubrovnik, the first gigabyte is €1.99.

What changed

Until this week, our 1GB plans ranged from €1.49 to €4.49 depending on the destination. Here is exactly what moved:

Why we flattened pricing

Because travelers kept asking us the same question in 19 languages: “How much will data cost me in ___?” The honest answer used to be “it depends.” Wholesale data costs do vary by country, but we’d rather absorb that complexity than pass it on as homework. One number is easier to remember, easier to budget, and easier to recommend to the person sitting next to you at the gate.

What every plan includes

• Hotspot and tethering – share your data with a laptop or travel companion at no extra charge.
• Activation in minutes – buy online, install, connect. With the Esimy iOS app or Android app, the eSIM installs directly on your phone – no QR code needed.
• 5% back on every purchase – through Esimy Wallet, our loyalty program. Points never expire.
• 24/7 support in 19 languages – real humans, on WhatsApp and email.
• Live balance check – see your remaining data anytime with the balance checker, no login needed.

Need more than 1GB?

Every destination has bigger tiers (3GB, 5GB, 10GB, 20GB and up), and unlimited plans are available where they make the most sense for longer or heavier trips:

Getting started

First, check that your phone supports eSIM on our supported devices list – most phones released since 2020 do. Then pick your destination, pay with card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and install. Your plan’s validity starts when the eSIM connects to a network at your destination, so you can set everything up days before you fly.
