When to Choose Roamless
Frequent travelers who want a single permanent eSIM with non-expiring pay-as-you-go credits
Roamless is a promising newcomer with a single global eSIM and dual pay-as-you-go/fixed pricing that suits irregular travelers perfectly — credits never expire. Its network speeds rank second among all tested providers. The lack of unlimited data and email-only support are drawbacks, but for frequent travelers who want one eSIM that just works everywhere, Roamless delivers.
Strengths
- Single global eSIM installed once and used across all 208 countries without reinstalling
- Dual pricing model: RoamlessFlex (pay-as-you-go, credits never expire) and RoamlessFix (fixed plans)
- Second-fastest eSIM overall in independent speed testing across 22 providers
- International calling starting at $0.01/minute with hotspot tethering supported
Limitations
- No unlimited data plans available for heavy data users
- No live chat support — email-only customer service with slower response times
- Cannot receive incoming calls; SMS not yet supported (planned for 2026)
When to Choose aloSIM
Travelers who need a phone number for calls and SMS alongside data, especially for Europe-focused trips
aloSIM differentiates itself with a free phone number included on most plans via its Hushed sister app — a unique perk that no other eSIM provider offers. The app is straightforward and the 5% cashback is a nice touch. However, the lack of a global plan and inconsistent support limit its appeal for serious world travelers.
Strengths
- Free international phone number included with most data packages via Hushed partnership (unique)
- Very user-friendly app with clear step-by-step purchase and installation process
- Hotspot support across all plans plus 5% cashback credit on every purchase
- 11 regional packages covering multiple destinations under one eSIM profile
Limitations
- No global eSIM package — multi-region travel requires buying separate plans
- Customer support bot frequently misreads questions; human support can be inconsistent
- Inconsistent speeds in Eastern Europe and limited Africa/Middle East coverage
