USA eSIM: Networks, Daily Limits and What Happens After

All 13 USA plans in Skylano's feed list two networks: Verizon and AT&T. The plan page's Details list says "Networks: Verizon, AT&T, and other local network providers." The plan page doesn't say which network your phone will pick at a given place. For why the same eSIM can behave differently from one country to the next, see why your eSIM works differently in each country.

All 13 plans are data-only. The plan page says "Calls: Not available; calls can be made through VoIP apps such as WhatsApp, FaceTime, or WeChat." and "SMS: Not available." Hotspot sharing is allowed on all 13 plans; the page adds that "final availability depends on the device and local network." For more on this, see calls, SMS and hotspot on a travel eSIM.

A daily plan gives you a set amount of data each day. Once you use it, data keeps working at a lower rate until the daily reset. You choose how many days to buy, and the total is the daily price times the number of days. The table lists the 3 USA-only daily plans; for daily prices in other countries, see pay-by-day eSIM prices by country.

The 1.5GB daily plan can't be topped up; the plan page shows "This plan does not support direct top-up; you can purchase a new plan instead." when it's selected. The 3GB and 10GB daily plans can be topped up.

The 3 USA daily plans reset at midnight (24:00, also written 0:00) in the time zone set on your phone. Until then, data keeps working at the lower rate shown in the table above.

Each of the 10 total-data plans gives you one data allowance to use at any pace during its validity period, from 7 to 180 days. The feed doesn't list a reduced rate for these plans: on all 10 total-data USA plans, data stops once the allowance is used up.

All 10 total-data USA plans can be topped up. For how to check a plan's Top-up line, see can I top up my eSIM data?.

For a week in the USA, 3GB a day for 7 days costs $55.93, which buys up to 21GB at the full rate. The 20GB 30-day total-data plan costs $24.99, and the 10GB 30-day plan costs $13.49:

A daily plan suits you if you want to know you'll have some data on every day of the 7, even at a lower rate. A total-data plan suits you if your use changes from day to day and you'd rather spend the allowance as you need it.

If your trip crosses into Canada or Mexico, a regional plan keeps 1 eSIM for the whole route; here's the 3GB, 30-day option on each:

This page may not fit your trip in 3 cases:

• You need calls, SMS or a local phone number. All 13 USA plans 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 also need data in Canada or Mexico. The 13 plans on this page list the United States only; use 1 of the 2 regional plans above.
• You're going to Puerto Rico. None of the 13 USA plans list Puerto Rico; it has 3 plans of its own, from $3.49 for 1GB over 7 days, on the Puerto Rico page.

• Counting method: we took every plan in the feed that lists exactly one country, the United States: 13 plans. Daily plans are those with a daily data allowance and a per-day price; the other 10 are total-data plans. Data amounts are the feed's dataCap value. A 7-day cost is the per-day price times 7, as the feed states that N days cost the per-day price times N.
