Our methodology
One rule, the same for every brand, including Sirocco, our publisher's brand.
The brands compared
As of 26 October 2026, eSIMeter compares 3 brands: Sirocco, Airalo and Holafly. Rankings only cover these brands; a brand not on this list is not ranked.
The ranking rule
- For a given trip (a duration and a data allowance), we take each brand's cheapest single plan that lasts at least as long as the trip and includes at least the data requested.
- For an “unlimited” trip, only an unlimited plan that lasts long enough counts.
- Brands are ranked from cheapest to most expensive. Where prices are equal, they are listed in alphabetical order.
- A brand with no eligible plan is not ranked: we say so below the ranking, with the reason.
The trips compared
Durations: 3 days, 7 days, 15 days and 30 days. Data allowances: 1 GB, 5 GB, 10 GB and Unlimited. The reference trip, used on the home page and in the summary sentences, is 7 days with 5 GB.
How family prices are calculated
The same rule multiplied by the number of travellers (4), minus the group discount the brand publishes for several eSIMs in a single order, where it applies.
Sources
- Prices: the public prices shown on each brand's official website, in euros. When a brand only shows prices in dollars, we convert them at the European Central Bank reference rate on the day of the check, and say so next to the price.
- Customer ratings: the rating and number of reviews on the App Store of the country matching the page's language.
- Destinations advertised: the number published by each brand.
How often
Prices are checked again every Monday. The date of the latest check appears on every page; the current check dates from 26 October 2026.
What we don't do
- No placements are for sale: no brand pays to be ranked or to be ranked higher.
- No promo codes or offers reserved for new customers in the compared prices.
- No in-house score or hidden weighting: for a given trip, the ranking is the price.
- No commission from other brands: links to them are plain links to their websites.
- No cookies and no audience measurement that identifies you.
