Our verdict
iRoamly Travel eSIM suits short trips that want wide country choice and a plan that is Unlimited, then 5 Mbps, and its overall score is 9.2. What you get for it is a long country list and open ended data, so the value sits in the plan you pick rather than the entry rate.

Pros and cons
Pros
- One eSIM reaches 150 countries, so a multi stop itinerary does not need a new plan at each border.
- Data is sold as Unlimited, then 5 Mbps, which takes the guesswork out of sizing a plan for maps, video and music.
- Top ups are available, so a plan that runs short mid trip can be topped up instead of replaced.
- US plans run on T Mobile and AT&T, and plan features include unlimited data, 5G and hotspot, so a laptop or tablet can share the connection.
Cons
- Entry plans start at $2.80, and starting price ranks 83 of 296 brands, so the cheapest rivals come in lower at $0.79 and $1.46.
- Support runs on email and help centre, with no phone line or live chat in the list, which can slow a problem that needs solving mid trip.
- The range is built for short trip travellers, so anyone moving base for months rather than weeks sits outside the trip length it is shaped around.

Scored 9.2 / 10 by NomadCue.
Who it suits
- Travellers whose route crosses several countries on one trip and who would rather buy one eSIM than a plan per stop.
- People who stream, map and share a hotspot for the whole trip and would rather not count gigabytes against a cap.
- Travellers who would rather add data part way through than buy a large plan in advance, since top ups are available.
Who should look elsewhere
- USim, if the lowest entry price decides it: USim starts at $1.46.
- Superalink eSIM, if you want the cheapest way in: it starts at $0.79.
- Travelist WiFi, if you would rather carry a pocket WiFi device than install an eSIM: its pricing starts at ¥770.
Speed and fair use
iRoamly sells unlimited data rather than fixed gigabyte bundles, and the fair use line is Unlimited, then 5 Mbps. That is the number to hold on to: browsing, maps, messaging and music stay covered for the length of a trip, while sustained heavy traffic is shaped down rather than switched off. Plan features include unlimited data, 5G and hotspot, so the same connection can serve a phone and the devices it shares with. Because the allowance is open ended, you do not have to guess how many gigabytes a week of navigation and video will use, which is exactly where capped plans force a compromise.
Where it sits among rivals
Among the brands on the site, iRoamly Travel eSIM ranks 103 of 302 on countries covered and 83 of 296 on starting price. Read together, those two positions put it in the middle of the field on both counts, so neither breadth nor entry rate is a deciding argument. For a route that crosses several countries, the country list is the part worth reading closely, while the price ranking tells you where to look if a cheaper plan covers the same route.
Who runs it
The service is run by IROAMLY LIMITED, registered in Hong Kong. Support runs on email and help centre, so a question goes by email and the routine ones are answered in the help centre. Both routes are written, which suits readers who would rather have an answer on the record than explain a problem aloud while abroad. A named company and country also make it easier to see who stands behind a purchase before you pay.

Frequently asked questions
How much does an iRoamly Travel eSIM cost?+
Entry plans start at $2.80, which sits above $0.79 from Superalink eSIM and $1.46 from USim. The lowest price is not the argument for this brand, so compare the country list and the data terms of the plan you actually want before paying.
What does the data cost per GB?+
Reference prices in the US, UK, Japan, Thailand and Turkey sit well below €1.49, the median price per GB across the brands on the site. Most plans here are sold as unlimited data under Unlimited, then 5 Mbps rather than as a capped gigabyte bundle, so the per GB figure matters less than the fair use line.
Is the data really unlimited?+
Unlimited data is listed as a plan feature, and the fair use line reads Unlimited, then 5 Mbps. You do not watch a gigabyte counter for maps, messaging, music or browsing, and sustained heavy traffic is shaped down rather than cut off. Anything that runs for hours instead of minutes is where that line shows.
How many countries does one eSIM cover?+
One iRoamly eSIM covers 150 countries, and the brand ranks 103 of 302 brands on coverage. A route that crosses several borders on one trip can be handled with a single purchase, which is the case this catalogue is built for.
Which networks will my phone use?+
US plans run on T Mobile and AT&T, and plan features include unlimited data, 5G and hotspot, so a compatible handset can take the faster tier where the carrier offers it. In other countries the network follows the plan you buy for that destination, which is worth checking against your route before you pay.
Can I share the connection with my laptop?+
Hotspot sharing is supported, and it rides on the same fair use line of Unlimited, then 5 Mbps. That suits a traveller or a small group who would rather share one connection than buy a plan per device. The same expectation applies as on the handset: comfortable everyday use, shaped speeds once the fair use line is reached.
Do you sell plans for a single market or for several?+
Plans are sold as regional and global options rather than for a single market, with entry pricing from $2.80. An itinerary that crosses several countries is the case that gets the most out of that spread, because one purchase covers the trip instead of a new plan at each stop.
Can I add data while I am still abroad?+
Top ups are available, so a plan that runs short mid trip can be topped up rather than replaced. The added data sits under the same fair use line of Unlimited, then 5 Mbps, so extra gigabytes do not lift the speed ceiling. Worth sorting before departure if you want the data waiting when you land.
Who is behind iRoamly Travel eSIM?+
The service is run by IROAMLY LIMITED, registered in Hong Kong, and purchases carry a 30 day money back window. That window gives you room to try a plan at the start of a trip and fall back on the refund terms if it does not behave as described.
How do I get help if a plan does not work?+
Support runs on email and help centre, so answers come by email or from the help centre. That suits readers who want the guidance on the record, and the help centre covers the routine questions. Replies arrive as messages rather than a live conversation, which is worth knowing if a plan is already not working.
