Roamless: Flexibility and Predictability in One
At Roamless, we believe in giving you flexibility and control over your connectivity, no matter where you are. That’s why you can use your single, global Roamless eSIM as pay-as-you-go or with traditional data plans... or if you need, a combination of the two.
You can choose how you want to stay connected based on your travel needs, whether it's adding funds to your wallet and consuming your balance per MB of usage (paying as you go) or purchasing traditional 30-day data plans for specific countries or regions.
Your single, global Roamless eSIM works with both models as usual; no need to download different eSIMs or manually change anything.
Two Ways to Stay Connected with Roamless
This is the Roamless you already know and love! Simply add funds to your account, and you’re good to use mobile data in any of our 200+ destinations based on that destination's rates. You only pay for what you use (rated per MB of usage). If you’re a frequent traveler hopping between countries or don't use a lot of mobile data when you travel, this is a great way to stay connected without worrying about data plans or expirations.
For those who want more predictability, Roamless Plans offer fixed data bundles—5GB, 10GB, 20GB— with a 30-day validity. Each plan works in a specific country or region, giving you a set amount of data at a static price that is cheaper per GB than our pay-as-you-go rates. It’s perfect if you know exactly how much data you’ll need during your stay or if you're sure you are going to use lots of mobile data. Just remember, Roamless Plans have a 30-day validity, starting with your first KB of usage, and any unused data at the end of 30 days will expire.
What’s the Difference Between Pay-as-you-Go and Data Plans?
Pay-As-You-Go (Roamless Flex) allows you to use your funds as you need them, when you need them, without any expiration. It offers you flexible data usage across all supported Roamless destinations. Your pay-as-you-go balance remains in your account without any expiration. You simply travel to your destination, turn on your Roamless eSIM, get online, and when you're done, you turn your off eSIM until when you need it next.
Data plans (Roamless Fix) give you a fixed amount of data (e.g., 5GB, 10GB or 20GB) for a fixed price and a 30-day expiration. Each plan is country- or region-specific, meaning it’s only works in the country or region for which you purchased it. Roamless data plans work seamlessly with your Roamless eSIM. You do not need to download or install the eSIM for each data plan.
What Happens When You Have both Pay-as-you-go Credits and Data Plans?
If you have both a Roamless Plan on your account as well as Roamless pay-as-you-go (Flex) credits in your wallet, Roamless automatically manages things for you.
Data Plan First, Pay-as-you-Go Flex Credits Next:
When you're in the country covered by your Roamless Plan, the data from your plan will always be used first.
Once your plan runs out (or expires), your eSIM will automatically switch to using your pay-as-you-go credits balance, consuming it per MB of usage.
This not only gets you the best value (i.e. most amount of data) for your money, but it also ensures that you're never left without connectivity (in case your plans runs out or expires).
In-App Calls: Your pay-as-you-go credits will always be used for in-app calls; Roamless Fix data plans are strictly for data. If you’re making calls through the Roamless app, those charges will be deducted from your pay-as-you-go balance, even if you have an active data plan (which you can still use for data).
Rewards: You may also have active rewards (from promo codes you've redeemed). Rewards are always used first, before data plans -- since we want to ensure you get the most benefit out of your rewards (before they expire).
Which Option is Right for You?
Pay-As-You-Go Credits (Roamless Flex) is perfect for users who:
Visit multiple countries and want the flexibility to use their funds wherever they go,
Do not want to worry about expirations or wasting data,
Do not have heavy mobile data usage,
Need connectivity between connecting flights at airports,
Need a reliable, on-demand back-up option for mobile data at home,
Need a flexible, low-cost mobile data option for their second device at home
Data Plans (Roamless Fix) are ideal for travelers who:
Plan on spending a longer-amount of time in one country or region,
Want predictability and want to lock in a specific amount of data for their stay,
Know they will consume lots of data on their trip,
Need cheaper per GB data rates (compared to pay-as-you-go)
You can also keep a certain amount of pay-as-you-go credits in your account, and then buy separate Roamless Plans to use in specific countrys/regions, and never have to worry about losing connectivity
Protip: This combination is especially great if you have connecting flights and need a few hours of data at the connection airport -- your pay-as-you-go balance will keep you online at the connecting airport, and your data plan will kick in once you arrive at your final destination -all automatically
Roamless gives you the best of both worlds— ultimate flexibility with pay-as-you-go (Roamless Flex) and better predictability and control with 30-day Roamless data plans. Whether you’re on a short trip or an extended journey, you can tailor your data usage to suit your travel style, all with a single, global Roamless eSIM
