If you use a normal amount of data

Most travellers use maps, messages, some social media and the odd video call. For a two week trip that is typically 5 to 10 GB. For that kind of use a fixed Wigoo plan costs a fraction of Holafly's cheapest unlimited plan, as the two tables above show. And if you run short you can top up the same Wigoo eSIM, while Holafly says traditional top-ups are no longer available.

For a week, Wigoo's day pass was cheaper than Holafly everywhere except Saudi Arabia on the day we wrote this. For a month, Holafly is cheaper in Japan, Saudi Arabia and the USA, and close to Wigoo's day pass in Turkey and France.

There is also a difference in what "unlimited" means. Wigoo's day passes give 2 GB a day at full speed, then continue at a reduced speed until the next day. Holafly says its operators may apply a fair use policy that slows speed for no more than a day, and limits sharing your connection to 1 GB a day.

Which one to choose

  • Choose Wigoo for most trips: pay for the data you actually use, and top up if you need more.
  • Choose Holafly if you know you will use a lot of data every day for a month or longer, especially in Saudi Arabia, Japan or the USA.
