What Happens to Unused Data After the End of My Plan?

Holafly eSIMs are valid only for the duration of the plan you purchase. Unused data plan will be lost and won’t be accessible after the plan ends. Make sure to make the most of your plan before it ends!


eSIMs with daily GB packages will expire automatically as soon as the purchased days are up. On the other hand, Unlimited Data eSIMs have no daily GB limits but will expire automatically once the purchased period ends.

Things to Keep in Mind

  • Activate Your eSIM on Arrival: To avoid losing a day of use, activate your Holafly eSIM only when you arrive at your destination. If your eSIM was activated during setup, turn it off and keep it deactivated until you reach your destination.
  • Buy the Right Amount of Days: Purchase only the number of days you'll need.
  • Recharge or Buy a New eSIM: Consider recharging your Holafly eSIM the day before it expires or purchase a new one if the current eSIM has expired.

Troubleshooting tips

To check your data usage with Holafly, use the Holafly app. Review the status of your Holalfly eSIM and follow our guide to manage your balance effectively and avoid interruptions.


Open the Holafly app > Go to My eSIM > View details: Here, you will find information about usage days, activation date, and expiration date.
