eSIMGlobe: plans, prices and terms
eSIMGlobe sells country eSIMs on its website. Each country page lists fixed-data plans from 1 to 50 GB, names the networks in that country and states the hotspot, top-up and speed terms in one spec block.

This is a review of published plans and terms, not a hands-on test. Prices checked 23 Oct 2026.
Where it does well
- Every country page names the networks the eSIM uses.
- States hotspot, top-up and "no speed reduction" terms plainly in one block per country.
- Small plans start at 1 GB for 7 days, so short trips don't pay for unused data.
Limitations
- We list its fixed-data plans only: the pages also show an unlimited plan that isn't in their structured data, and variants on another network (China mainland, some Japan plans).
- No separate Hong Kong page, so Hong Kong has no eSIMGlobe plans here.
- Each page names a "data exit country" where traffic leaves its network, often not the country you visit (Hong Kong for Japan, the UK and Norway for France).
- The store shows converted prices (for example EUR or INR) to visitors outside the US unless USD is requested; we record the USD price.
