Which plans does this count leave out?
This page counts 1,158 single-country plans and 120 regional plans with a fixed data total. It doesn't include the 735 pay-by-day plans, which are sold by the day for 1 to 999 days (or 1 to 99 days for some regional plans) and have a validity of 1 day per day bought. Per-day prices for the 717 single-country daily plans are in pay-by-day eSIM prices in 173 countries.
When does the validity period start?
All 1,278 plans on this page are total-data plans, and Skylano's Terms say a total-data allowance is available during the stated validity period after activation or plan start. Activation means the eSIM connects to a supported mobile network at the destination, or the plan's records show it has started; installing the eSIM isn't the same as activating it. Our guide on when to install and activate an eSIM explains the steps.
For trips longer than 30 days, see the 43 countries with a 180-day eSIM plan and the long-trip eSIM guide, and browse all plans on the plans page.
Can you add data to a fixed-data plan?
1,250 of the 1,278 fixed-data plans can be topped up:
| Fixed-data plans | Plans |
|---|---|
| Can be topped up | 1,250 |
| Can't be topped up | 28 |
Skylano's plan feed and plan pages don't say whether a top-up changes a plan's validity. To check a plan's Top-up line before you buy, see can I top up my eSIM data?, which covers all 2,013 plans.
Who is this not for?
This page may not fit your trip in 3 cases:
- You need calls, SMS or a local phone number. All 1,278 plans on this page are data-only. In Skylano's plan feed on 3 November 2026, all 2,013 plans list voice and SMS as not included. Skylano's Terms say that, unless a product page expressly states otherwise, plans don't include voice calls, SMS, emergency calling or a local phone number.
- You want to pay by the day. The 735 pay-by-day plans aren't counted here; they're sold by the day, for 1 to 999 days on single-country plans and 1 to 99 days on the 18 regional ones, and are covered on the pay-by-day page linked above.
- Your destination has no plan of the length you want. Single-country plans cover 184 countries and regions, but Mali has no 30-day single-country plan (its longest is 15 days), and no plan in the feed lists Kosovo.
