Beyond the price tag
Roamic hotspot 5G and fair-use rules
Quoted from Roamic's own published policy. Where a brand publishes nothing, we say so rather than guess.
Hotspot and tethering
AllowedAllowed for personal use
Roamic's product pages list hotspot as supported. Its fair-use page allows normal personal tethering but prohibits sharing the connection across many devices or reselling it, so a family hotspotting a laptop and two tablets is outside the terms.
Fair-use threshold
3 GB/day
Drops to 1 Mbps
Roamic states one figure everywhere: 3 GB at full speed in each 24-hour period, then 1 Mbps until the cycle resets. No extra charge and the connection is never cut off. This is the clearest published threshold of any unlimited provider we track.
Top-ups
AvailableRoamic sells top-ups online, so a plan that runs short can be extended without installing a new eSIM.
Every plan is data-only — you keep your own number for calls and texts.
Speed and 5G
5G available5G in 49 of 50 markets
5G comes from the local networks rather than the brand. We profile 147 carrier networks across the markets where Roamic sells, and 5G is live on them wherever the country has rolled it out.
LTE only in Fiji — no brand can sell you 5G there.

Word of mouth
Roamic eSIM reviews and how to read them
Nobody publishes a review of Roamic on this site — we publish dated prices, not opinions. What we can tell you is where the reviews live and which parts of them are worth your time. Everything we do publish is reproducible: 1791 Roamic plan prices across 50 destinations, checked Sep 30, 2026.
What to look for in a review of Roamic
- +One-star reviews that name a specific failure. The failure mode an eSIM actually has is a profile that installs and then never connects — a review describing exactly that predicts more than fifty five-star posts saying it worked.
- +The destination. A verdict written about Thailand says little about Roamic in your country, because the roaming partner and the local network are different.
- +The date. eSIM apps, roaming partners and fair-use limits change every few months, so weight the last two months and treat anything older than a year as history.
What Roamic customers say elsewhere
We do not republish a star rating for Roamic. The same brand scores differently depending on which Trustpilot domain you land on, the figures move weekly, and an average hides the only part that predicts your trip — the one-star reviews, which cluster on the eSIM failing to connect after landing. Read those, filter for your own destination and weight the last two months. Every number on this page is dated and reproducible; a borrowed score would not be.
Read Roamic reviews on TrustpilotForums such as Reddit are useful and unreliable for the same reason: threads are unmoderated, often years old, and written by people whose destination and handset you cannot see. Read them for the failure patterns, not for the verdicts.

- 1
Buy on the website
Choose the country package and pay online — the eSIM arrives by email within minutes, before you travel.
- 2
Scan the QR code
Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM (iOS) or the equivalent on Android — the profile downloads and sits dormant until the validity window starts.
- 3
It activates on arrival
The line registers on the local partner network when you land. Need more data later? Buy a new package and install it the same way.

How refunds work
Roamic's homepage promises a no-questions-asked refund if your eSIM goes unused within 6 months. The formal policy notes eSIMs are digital products that can't be returned once purchased, and sends buyers with problems to the support team (chat or email), who handle refunds without hassle when a plan must be changed.

Alternatives by market
Who beats Roamic on price and where to go instead
Another brand sells a comparable plan for less in 6 of the 50 markets where we track Roamic. We put like against like: an identical data allowance and validity where a rival sells one, otherwise the nearest rival plan that covers at least as much data and at least as many days. Every gap below is a real list-price difference from the same dated snapshot, and where nothing is genuinely comparable we list nothing.
| Country | Roamic cheapest | Cheaper rival | Rival price | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Australia
|
$2.00 1GB / 7 d | Roami | $1.99 1GB / 7 d | −1% |
China
|
$2.00 1GB / 7 d | Roami | $1.99 1GB / 7 d | −1% |

Mexico
|
$4.00 1GB / 7 d | Roami | $3.99 1GB / 7 d | −0% |
How we matched: first the same data allowance and validity as Roamic's cheapest plan in that market; if no rival sells that exact combination, the cheapest rival plan that covers at least as much data and at least as many days; where that does not exist either, the market is left out rather than compared across mismatched plans. Both prices are dated list prices before promo codes and taxes.

Network reality
Which local networks Roamic rides on
An eSIM does not build towers. In every market Roamic buys capacity from that country's national operators, so the networks below are the same ones every reseller in that country uses. We profile 147 of them.
5G is live in 49 of 50 markets
Markets where 5G is live and Roamic is also the cheapest provider we track:
Where 5G is not available at all
Host networks in these markets run LTE only, so no eSIM on any brand can be faster than that:
- Fiji — Vodafone Fiji · Digicel Fiji
Speeds and generations come from our per-country network profiles, built from operator material and third-party measurement. eSIM network map
Where Roamic plans cost the least and the most
Same provider, very different entry prices by country. If your destination sits in the right-hand column, compare against the full table before buying.

Roamic vs the field
Each bar is the share of the 50 destinations in our database where that provider posts the lowest price of any brand we track; the fraction repeats the same number. A short bar means it is rarely the outright cheapest, not that it is expensive — check the per-gigabyte column there.

FAQ
Is Roamic the right eSIM for your trip
How many countries does Roamic cover?
Roamic sells eSIMs for 50 of the 50 destinations this site tracks, all priced from the same dated snapshot. Its own catalogue lists 190+ destinations in total — we track the 50 where demand is highest. For a specific trip, open that destination's page in the country comparison and every Roamic plan sorts against the field.
Is Roamic the cheapest eSIM provider?
No provider wins everywhere — it depends on the destination. Roamic is the cheapest provider in 6 of the 50 countries where we track its plans (12% of its coverage). For example, in Colombia its plans start at $4.00.
Does Roamic have unlimited data plans?
Yes — 1500 of the 1791 plans we track from Roamic are unlimited. Every one carries a fair-use policy that can throttle speed after a threshold, so read the verbatim notes in our fair-use audit before a streaming-heavy trip.
Can I buy an eSIM from Roamic without installing an app?
Yes — Roamic is a web marketplace: pick your destination, check out on the website, and the eSIM QR code arrives by email within minutes. No app is required. Install the profile at home on Wi-Fi before departure so you land connected.
Is there a discount code for Roamic?
Yes — code FYESIM10 gives 10% off all plans (10% off, Entered at the final checkout step. Roamic has no official coupons page — all tracked codes are third-party partner codes, so if one is rejected try the fallback.). Copy it on our eSIM deals page, which also calculates whether the discounted price still loses to a cheaper rival in each country.
What is Roamic's cheapest eSIM plan?
The entry price in our database is $1.00 — the smallest bucket in the cheapest destination, not necessarily the right plan for your trip. Sort by $/GB on your destination's page before choosing; prices exclude promo codes and taxes.
Is Roamic a legit eSIM provider?
Roamic launched in 2021 and sells marketplace plans across 50 destinations. It is operated by Bytetravel S.A., headquartered in Sant Cugat del Vallès (Barcelona), Spain. It is a sponsored partner of this site — rankings here are still computed by price alone (see our methodology).
How do I contact Roamic support?
Roamic offers 24/7 live chat and email; phone +34 91 791 94 91. Email: info@roamic.com. Before writing in, test once on Wi-Fi and check that data roaming is on for the eSIM line — most "no connection" reports turn out to be a roaming toggle, not a broken eSIM.
Can I get a refund on an eSIM from Roamic?
Roamic's refund terms are quoted in the support card above — we keep that summary rather than restating it here. The part that actually decides whether you can claim is timing: buy a day or two before departure and install at home, because the withdrawal window normally closes the moment the eSIM is activated. Install early, test the connection, and a problem is still fixable; install at the airport and you have usually spent the right.
How does Roamic compare with Yesim?
Across the destinations we track, Roamic is the cheapest provider in 6 countries vs Yesim in 42. The full country-by-country table is our Roamic vs Yesim comparison.
Does Roamic support hotspot sharing?
Roamic sets its hotspot rules at brand level rather than country by country, so one answer covers every market we track. What Roamic publishes: Allowed for personal use. Tethering traffic is drawn from the same allowance as your phone unless that note says otherwise, so a laptop session drains a metered plan noticeably faster — size the plan for the devices you are actually bringing.
Does Roamic support 5G?
An eSIM cannot invent a network the destination does not have. 5G is live on the host networks in 49 of the 50 markets where Roamic sells, so whether you get 5G is decided by where you fly, not by which brand you bought. One market we track is LTE only — Fiji — and no brand can change that. Check your own destination on our eSIM network map before you count on 5G speeds.
Who is cheaper than Roamic?
It depends on the market. In 6 of the 50 countries where we track Roamic, another brand sells a comparable plan — same data allowance, same validity — for less. The most frequent winner against it is Roami, ahead in 6 markets. Our Roamic vs Yesim comparison shows the same gap brand by brand, and the table above lists all 6 markets with both prices side by side.
