Standard vs Unlimited Plans

We offer two plan types for this destination: Standard and Unlimited.
Both are data-only eSIM plans and support hotspot / tethering on compatible devices.

Quick choice
Standard = fixed data at full speed
Unlimited = daily high-speed data, slower speeds after

Standard Plans

  • Data: Fixed total allowance (e.g. 3GB, 5GB, 10GB)
  • Speed: Full speed until all data is used
  • When used up: Top-up required (if available) or buy a new plan

Best for: short trips, lighter usage, maps, messaging, email,
and predictable data needs.

Unlimited Plans (Fair Usage)

  • Total data: Unlimited for the duration of your plan
  • High-speed allowance:
    Daily limit chosen at checkout
    (e.g. 500MB/day, 1GB/day, 2GB/day)
  • After daily limit:
    Speeds reduced to approximately 2G levels until the next daily reset
  • Reduced speeds:
    Suitable for messaging, email, and light browsing
    (not suitable for streaming or video calls)

Best for: longer stays, remote work, hotspot use,
and consistent daily data usage.

Tip:
If you need high-speed access all day, choose a higher daily allowance.
If you mainly use data for messaging and occasional browsing, a lower allowance is usually sufficient.
