Saily eSIM review: honest experience and pricing (2026)

Pros

• High Trustpilot score, among the better-rated eSIM providers as of writing
• The Ultra plan offers (as of writing) a monthly data allowance usable across multiple countries, with continued (slower) data afterward instead of a hard cutoff, check current terms since plan details can change
• Separately purchasable US phone number (from roughly $0.84 to $0.99/month, on top of your data plan), usable for calls, texts and two-factor verification with banking and payment apps among others

Cons

• Relatively new brand compared to Airalo or Holafly, less of a long-term track record
• Outside of the Ultra plan, you're on fixed 7- or 30-day plans, if your data needs vary from trip to trip that's less flexible than plans you can top up freely

Pricing

Saily plans start around $5 and go up to roughly $109 for larger packages. Some examples as of writing, check Saily's website for current tiers and terms:

• Small plan for a single destination: from around $5
• Larger country plan: can go up to roughly $109, depending on data allowance and duration
• Ultra subscription: multiple tiers with a monthly data allowance usable across 121+ destinations, with slower data instead of a cutoff once the allowance runs out

Installation and ease of use

As a product from Nord Security, the app is polished and easy to use, similar in style and usability to the well-known NordVPN app. Hotspot/tethering is supported (sharing to multiple devices with no hard data cap). You can install the eSIM ahead of time: that only activates the profile, the plan itself starts once you connect to a network in the coverage area, or automatically after 30 days.

Coverage

Saily covers more than 200 destinations worldwide, with both single-country plans and the Ultra subscription for frequent travelers visiting multiple countries.

How does Saily compare to other providers?

Saily stands out mainly with the Ultra subscription (monthly data allowance usable across multiple countries, continued data) and the recognizable name of developer Nord Security, known for NordVPN. For a single trip to one destination, Airalo and Nomad are often a more direct comparison, see our Saily vs Airalo comparison.
