How Does Holafly Plans Differ From Daily Travel eSIMs?

Both Holafly Monthly Plans and Daily Travel eSIMs let you connect without a physical SIM card—but they’re built for different travel needs. Here's how they compare, so you can choose what best fits your lifestyle:

Subscription vs. One-Time Purchase

  • Daily travel eSIMs are one-time purchases tied to a specific duration or data limit. Once they expire, you need to buy and install a new one.
  • Holafly Plans are recurring subscriptions that renew automatically each month. Your connection continues seamlessly across trips until you cancel—no reinstallation needed.

One-Time Setup With Monthly Plans

Both daily eSIMs and monthly plans are installed digitally using a QR code—no physical SIM required.

With Daily eSIMs, you must install a new eSIM every time you purchase a new plan.

With Holafly Plans, you install the eSIM once and use it across all covered countries—no need to reinstall for each trip.

Cost-Effective for Frequent Travelers

Holafly’s monthly subscriptions save you money over time by eliminating the need to buy separate packages for each trip or destination.

There are no hidden fees or fluctuating costs, and unlike many travel eSIMs, the pricing doesn’t vary by country or region.

Wider International Coverage

Travel eSIMs typically cover a limited set of countries or regions.

In contrast, Holafly Plans provides coverage across 170+ countries—far more than most travel eSIMs.

Some travel eSIMs also exclude countries with limited telecom infrastructure or weak operator partnerships, which can lead to poor connectivity. Holafly’s monthly plans automatically connect to the best available local network available in each destination.

Tethering & Multi-Device Use

Most travel eSIMs don’t support hotspot/tethering, or offer it under strict limitations.

Holafly’s 25 GB and Unlimited Plans allow full hotspot functionality, letting you share data with your laptop, tablet, or other devices—no extra plans required.
