Roamify sells prepaid travel eSIMs for more than 200 destinations. You buy a plan for where you're going, it arrives by email as a QR code, and your phone connects to a local network when you land. There's no physical SIM to swap and no roaming bill from your carrier when you get home. Roamify says more than a million travelers have used it.

It suits anyone heading abroad with an unlocked, eSIM-capable phone, which covers most recent iPhones and many Android phones. Roamify has a compatibility checker on its site, so check your phone before you buy. Plans are priced in US dollars and last from one day to 90 days, depending on the country, and Roamify offers 24/7 support if something goes wrong while you're away.

What's worth a look

Each destination has its own page with a choice of data plans and unlimited plans. These are the "from" prices in US dollars for six popular trips.

The Japan eSIM page lists 38 plans, valid for 1 to 30 days, from $3.50 to $90. They run on the KDDI network, every plan includes hotspot tethering, and all are data-only. When we checked, 10GB for four days was $8, and an unlimited 15-day plan was $34.50. Japan plans can't be topped up, though, so if you run out you'll need to buy a new plan. That makes it worth sizing up rather than down.

Europe is cheaper. Italy and France plans start at $2.23, and the United Kingdom eSIM starts at $2.26 on the O2 and EE networks. For a road trip, the North America eSIM covers more than one country from $2.47, and Mexico has its own plans from the same price.

Current offers

How to save more

• Pick the right plan type. A fixed amount of data is usually the cheapest for a short city break, while unlimited plans make more sense for long trips or if you'll use your phone as a hotspot for a laptop.
• Check whether your destination's plans can be topped up. Some countries, like Italy and Mexico, have plans you can add data to, but Japan and the UK plans can't be topped up. On those, pick enough data up front.
• Install the eSIM at home over Wi-Fi before you fly, then switch it on when you land. You'll be online the moment you're off the plane and won't need to look for airport Wi-Fi.
