Ubigi Unlimited Data Plans give you the freedom to stay connected anywhere in the world with complete peace of mind, and no hidden fees.
To ensure fair usage for all customers and maintain a high-quality connection for everyone, our eSIM Unlimited Data Plans include a Fair Usage Policy (FUP).
1/ What does the Fair Usage Policy mean?
A Fair Usage Policy is a common practice used by most mobile operators and connectivity providers around the world.
It’s designed to prevent network congestion and ensure that no single user consumes excessive bandwidth, which could affect others’ connection quality.
With Ubigi, this means you can enjoy full-speed Internet up to a generous data threshold, after which your connection speed is temporarily reduced.
For instance:
¤ On 7-day Country plans, speeds are reduced to 1 Mbps after around 15GB to 25GB of usage (depending on the country).
¤ On 30-day Regional plans, speeds are reduced to 1 Mbps after 60GB of usage (depending on the country).
– For unlimited Country plans (for instance: France, Japan, USA, etc.):
*Depends on the country
– For unlimited Regional plans(for instance: Europe, Asia, Best Caribbean, etc.):
*Depends on the Region
– For unlimited World plans:
Even after reaching the threshold, you remain connected – the speed is simply lowered to ensure fair access for all users on the same network.
2/ Why does Ubigi apply a Fair Usage Policy?
According to industry standards, unlimited data plans cannot truly offer infinite high-speed data – all networks have capacity limits.
The FUP ensures:
– Network stability and fairness: everyone benefits from a smooth and reliable connection.
– Sustainable performance: it prevents a small number of users from overloading the network.
– Transparency: users know exactly what to expect, with clear thresholds and no hidden charges.
3/ What does it mean for you as a user?
In real-life usage, most Ubigi customers never notice any slowdown, as our thresholds are set high enough to cover typical data needs during travel – including messaging, browsing, social media, and video streaming.
If you do reach the threshold, you can still comfortably use essential services like navigation, emails, and social apps.
4/ Who has the best unlimited data plan?
While most eSIM providers limit users to very low speeds – typically between 128 and 512 Kbps, as clearly outlined in this Alertify article – Ubigi delivers a far superior experience with throttled speeds of up to 1000 Kbps (1 Mbps), providing nearly twice the performance once the FUP threshold is reached:
5/ Conclusion
Ubigi’s Fair Usage Policy is there to protect your experience – ensuring that you, and all Ubigi users, can enjoy a consistent, high-quality connection wherever you go.
