More than 200 destinations
One of the widest catalogues on the market: country, regional (Europe, Asia, Americas) and global plans, with tens of thousands of volume/duration combinations listed on Datadopt.
Entry price from $2
A clear budget positioning: the smallest plans start around $2, and most of the catalogue sits between $3 and $15 depending on the destination and volume.
Calls and SMS options
Unlike most travel eSIMs that are 100% data, Roamify offers plans including calls and SMS on some destinations, handy for reaching local numbers.
iOS and Android app

Activation on landing
QR code sent after payment, setup in a few minutes. The eSIM activates on the first connection to the destination network.

Who is Roamify? Presenting the operator
Roamify is a travel eSIM provider that appeared in 2023 and quickly built one of the most extensive catalogues in the sector: more than 200 destinations and tens of thousands of active plans listed on Datadopt. Like almost every player on the market, Roamify is an MVNO: it doesn't own its own network but resells access to local partner carriers in each country.
The positioning is clearly price-driven: entry-level plans from $2, a dense grid of volumes (from 500 MB to 50 GB) and durations (from 1 to 90 days), and unlimited data offers on eligible destinations. This catalogue density lets you fine-tune the plan to the real length of your stay instead of paying for oversized volume.
One specialty sets Roamify apart from most travel eSIMs: some destinations offer plans with calls and SMS included, on top of data. For travellers who need to call local numbers (restaurants, taxis, public services), it's a real differentiator against the 100% data offers from Airalo or Nomad.
On the tools side, Roamify offers an iPhone (iOS) and Android app to buy a plan, install the eSIM, track remaining usage and top up. The initial installation goes through a QR code emailed after payment. The help centre is translated into more than 40 languages, including English, a welcome point for travellers who prefer support in their own language.
Is Roamify reliable? The service relies on established partner carriers and maintains an active Trustpilot page. The 4G/5G speeds depend on the local partner in each destination, as with every provider. Watch-outs: fair use applies on the unlimited offers, and the refund policy follows the market standard (full before activation, case by case afterwards). Remember to check your phone's eSIM compatibility before buying.

Google Play (Android)

Recurring strengths
- Very low entry price: plans from $2, among the most accessible on the market
- Very dense catalogue: more than 200 destinations and a wide choice of volume/duration combinations
- Calls + SMS plans available on some destinations, rare on the travel eSIM market
- DOPT5 discount code active via Datadopt: 5% off the entire catalogue
Watch-outs
- Speeds vary by local partner carrier: check the network used on the plan's details
- Fair use on the unlimited offers: speed may be reduced after very heavy usage
- Calls/SMS plans aren't available everywhere: most of the catalogue is still data only
- China: a VPN installed before departure remains essential to access Google, WhatsApp and Instagram (as with all providers)
Our take: Roamify is a fitting choice for travellers on a tight budget and for those who need local calls or SMS on top of data. For a long stay with intensive streaming, an alternative with truly unlimited data like Holafly may be a better fit; for a more mature app ecosystem, Airalo and Saily remain references.
Roamify coverage: where do the plans work?
Roamify covers more than 200 destinations with country, regional and global plans. Here are the destinations most searched by our readers, with a direct link to the matching Roamify plans.
Popular destinations covered
⚠️ Heads-up on China
China blocks Google, WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and much of the Western web (Great Firewall). The Roamify eSIM for China relies on a local carrier, so the blocking applies. To access your usual services, install a VPN before departure (NordVPN, ExpressVPN, ProtonVPN, Mullvad): once you're in China, the VPN download sites are themselves blocked.
Roamify plan types
Country plan
An eSIM dedicated to a single destination, from a small volume for a short stay to a large volume for 30 days and more. The most economical format for a targeted trip.
Regional plan
A single eSIM for several neighbouring countries (Europe, Asia, Americas). Handy for a multi-country itinerary without changing plan at every border.
Unlimited plan
Unlimited data subject to fair use on eligible destinations. The high-speed cap detail is shown on each plan's page.
Data + calls/SMS plan
On some destinations, Roamify includes calls and SMS on top of data: useful for reaching local numbers without a third-party app.
Roamify FAQ
How do I activate a Roamify eSIM?▾
After payment, Roamify sends a QR code by email and in the app. iPhone: Settings → Cellular → Add plan → scan the QR. Android: Settings → Network & internet → SIM → Download a SIM. The eSIM activates on the first connection to the destination network: install it before departure but keep the line off until landing to preserve the validity period.
Does Roamify offer a discount code?▾
Yes, the Discount code DOPT5 gives 5% off the Roamify catalogue. It is applied automatically when you click "Subscribe" from Datadopt, with no extra step at checkout.
Is there a Roamify app?▾
Yes, Roamify offers an iOS and Android app to buy a plan, install the eSIM, track remaining usage and top up. The help centre is available in more than 40 languages, including English.
Does Roamify offer plans with calls and SMS?▾
Yes, it's one of Roamify's specialties: on some destinations, plans include calls and SMS on top of data. Most of the catalogue is still data only, however, as with most travel eSIM providers. Check the details of each plan on Datadopt.
Does Roamify work in China?▾
Yes, China is covered, but Google, WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube are blocked by the Great Firewall even via Roamify. Install a VPN (NordVPN, ExpressVPN, Mullvad) on your phone BEFORE departure: once there, the VPN download sites are themselves blocked.
Can I use WhatsApp, TikTok and hotspot sharing with Roamify?▾
WhatsApp and TikTok: yes, on all destinations (except China without a VPN). Hotspot sharing: allowed on most Roamify plans; any limits are shown in the plan details on Datadopt.
Does Roamify refund if there's a problem?▾
The refund policy follows the market standard: a refund is possible as long as the eSIM isn't activated, handled case by case for a proven malfunction after activation. Contact Roamify support (available in English) with the details of the problem and always test the connection as soon as you arrive.
Roamify or Airalo: which one to choose?▾
Roamify = lower entry price (from $2), calls/SMS options on some destinations and the DOPT5 discount code via Datadopt. Airalo = the market's long-standing reference, a very mature app ecosystem and an extensive unlimited range. Both cover 200 destinations: compare on the exact destination of your trip, as price gaps vary a lot from one country to another.
Is my phone compatible with Roamify?▾
iPhone XS and later (2018+), Samsung Galaxy S20 and later, Google Pixel 3+, Xiaomi 13+ and most recent eSIM-compatible models. Check for the "EID" field in Settings → General → About (iPhone) or in the SIM settings (Android). See our full smartphone eSIM compatibility guide for the detailed list of models.
How fast is Roamify data?▾
It depends on the local partner carrier: 5G on compatible destinations and partners (Japan, United States, UAE, Spain), 4G/4G+ across most of Europe and Asia, 3G possible on some less-equipped destinations. The network used is shown on each plan's page on Datadopt.
