Fixed-data prices for stated trip requirements
Each row keeps one currency and identical minimum requirements. A package may include more data or days than required; its whole recorded price is used. No top-up, renewal, currency conversion or discount is inferred.

Unlimited-labelled alternatives are a different model
Unlimited-labelled data is not a verified total high-speed allowance. A hotspot limit describes sharing, not necessarily the handset fair-use threshold. The examples below are separate from the fixed-data price verdicts.

Activation, sharing and refund examples
These are selected published policy examples with their original scope. Read the exact package notes for country-specific exceptions; a general rule is not a promise for every product sold by a brand.
BetterRoaming
Activation
Country FAQ says automatic activation on arrival, or immediate activation when already at the destination. Generic terms say activation is typically instant unless a delayed-activation option is selected. Confirm the purchase-specific start setting before paying; installation alone is not a verified start rule.
Applies to: all selected fixed smartphone plans
Official source ↗Hotspot
Hotspot support and any separate tethering cap were not established in the checked smartphone sources.
Applies to: all selected fixed smartphone plans
Official source ↗Refund
Terms provide EU/UK consumers a 14-day withdrawal period and Brazil consumers 7 days. If activation was requested and the plan was used, refunds may be reduced for allowance used or validity elapsed. Other mandatory rights and qualifying provider-failure remedies may apply; no universal full-refund promise.
Applies to: eligible consumers; statutory conditions apply
Official source ↗Holafly
Activation
Product FAQs state that plan validity begins on first connection to a supported network; install before travel and activate at the destination.
Applies to: confirmed separately on the original seven product pages; consult individual plan sources for later additions
Official source ↗Hotspot
The original seven destination products each state a 1 GB per day sharing allowance. This is a tethering allowance, not a stated full-speed FUP threshold.
Applies to: confirmed separately on the original seven product pages; consult individual plan sources for later additions; each plan carries its product source
Official source ↗Choose the package that fits your trip
Use the fixed-data result only when both products satisfy your dates, destinations and total-data requirement. Prefer a differently priced package when its confirmed coverage, sharing or activation conditions fit better. No named provider is the universal winner.
For an unlimited-labelled product, confirm the high-speed and sharing rules separately. For a multi-country trip, verify every stop in the exact product coverage list.
Reference-price labels remain visible and are excluded from unqualified lowest-price verdicts. Research dates belong to the individual records, not to a new check of every provider today.
