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.

Numbers count dated package records in our catalogue, not all countries sold by each provider. A dash means no record here, not that the provider has no product.

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.
Kolet
Activation
Install with internet in advance, then activate at the destination. The current start guide says paid validity begins with the first MB of data there, not purchase or installation. The selected Standard cards and current help show 365 days from first use; confirm the exact purchased plan.
Applies to: selected paid Standard country plans
Official source ↗Hotspot
Hotspot is supported and draws from the fixed total data balance. No separate tethering cap was established for these fixed plans. Unlimited-plan daily speed rules were not applied.
Applies to: selected fixed Standard plans
Official source ↗Refund
Terms allow a full order refund request within 30 days if the eSIM is not installed or the plan is not activated. Eligibility is checked; an activated plan with less than 1% consumed may be considered for a partial refund. This is not an unconditional money-back promise.
Applies to: eligible non-activated paid orders
Official source ↗Nomad
Activation
Installation does not start validity. First supported destination network connection starts the plan; unused plans activate automatically after 60 days. Product installation emails may require manual steps.
Applies to: General Nomad help; confirm purchased package installation instructions.
Official source ↗Hotspot
Tethering generally supported; shared usage consumes plan data. Compatibility can depend on device and local network.
Applies to: Most Nomad eSIMs; exact package-specific numeric hotspot cap not published in captured package text.
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.
