Ubigi VS BetterRoaming

With Ubigi, you have more eSIM data plans with Ubigi: one-off top ups — ideal for travellers — and recurring subscriptions for regular users, while BetterRoaming’s plans are one-off only. Furthermore you can get data plans for eSIM compatible Windows 10 and Windows 11 laptops (and soon Windows 11) with a list of laptop models with Ubigi pre-installed. BetterRoaming eSIM does not work with Windows 10 (hence laptops), but it does on Apple Watch unlike Ubigi.

Finally, Ubigi has better customer reviews than BetterRoaming on the App stores and Trustpilot.

Ubigi VS Gigsky

Both Ubigi and Gigsky cover 200+ destinations (with new openings every month), but Ubigi has more country-dedicated plans (close to local rates) on top of regional plans. Ubigi offers both one-off eSIM data plans — ideal for travelers — and recurring subscriptions for regular users, while Gigsky’s plans are one-off only.

Finally, Ubigi has better customer reviews than Gigsky on Trustpilot.

Ubigi VS Airalo

Airalo is a reseller of different eSIM providers. So, the same eSIM profile cannot be reused in all the destinations unlike Ubigi (once Ubigi eSIM is installed, it works in 200+ destinations). Moreover, Ubigi offers data plans for eSIM compatible Windows 10 and Windows 11 laptops with a list of laptop models with Ubigi pre-installed. Airalo doesn’t provide eSIM data plans for laptops.

Finally, you can always access your account not only from the app but from our web portal too.

Wish I had read the small print
I needed a Global sim as I am travelling to Switzerland, Morocco and the UK in September. I bought the 30 day Global plan. As I live in Australia which is included in the Global plan the plan was active immediately! I didn't want to start using the plan until September. So I cancelled it and received a refund within 24 hours. I will re-purchase the day I leave.

The Ubigi eSIM worked well for me.
The Ubigi eSIM worked very well in the Lisbon area. I used it mostly for navagation/Google maps. I've used Ubigi eSIMs successfully three times now in different countries. I will use it for my trip.
