Our Global eSIM works that way: unlimited data across 165+ countries, with a Daily Quota of high-speed data.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">You find the limit out mid-trip, when the map stops loading on a street you don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mt-8 mb-4 font-normal text-slate-900\">Unlimited on a Maya eSIM means no data cap, plus a daily full-speed allowance<\/h2>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Our Global eSIM gives unlimited data across 165+ countries, with a daily high-speed allowance called the Daily Quota. Unlimited means no gigabyte meter on the plan. It does not mean full speed without end, and the Daily Quota is where that line sits.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">The Daily Quota runs at up to 4G LTE or 5G where local networks offer it. Once it\u2019s used, data continues at standard speed for the rest of the day. It resets automatically every 24 hours, counted from your activation date.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Across the industry, most providers enforce a fair usage policy or a daily high-speed cap, typically 1GB to 5GB per day depending on the provider and plan. So \u201cunlimited\u201d rarely means infinite at full speed. We put our allowance in plain view.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mt-8 mb-4 font-normal text-slate-900\">What happens to your eSIM speed after the daily high-speed data runs out?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Your connection is not cut off, but your speed is heavily throttled for the rest of that 24-hour cycle. Full-speed data then returns when the daily allowance resets. Providers often drop the throttled speed to 512 Kbps or 1 Mbps, and many reset every 24 hours or at midnight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">On our Global eSIM, data continues at standard speed once the Daily Quota is used. Your data refreshes every 24 hours from the activation date, and the high-speed allowance comes back on its own. You get full speed again without touching a setting.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mt-8 mb-4 font-normal text-slate-900\">Which trips suit unlimited eSIM data, and when is fixed data better?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Unlimited data suits travelers who use maps, browsing and messaging every day, because those apps still work at throttled speeds. Heavy video streaming, remote work, large cloud backups and heavy tethering strain any daily allowance. Fixed-data eSIMs give a flat chunk of full-speed data, like 10GB or 20GB, to use whenever you like, which suits a light, predictable trip.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Tushar, a Maya Mobile customer, left a 5-star Trustpilot review in July 2026 about using data abroad: \u201cUsing Maya eSIM was a smooth and hassle-free experience from start to finish. The installation and activation were simple, and I was connected almost immediately. Throughout my trip, the connection remained stable, with fast data speeds that easily handled maps, social media, video calls, and web browsing. One of the biggest advantages was the convenience of using an eSIM instead of swapping physical SIM cards. The available plans offered good value for money, and everything was easy to set up and manage through the app. Whenever I needed assistance, the support team responded promptly and was helpful. Overall, Maya eSIM delivered reliable performance, excellent convenience, and great value. I wouldn\u2019t hesitate to use it again and would happily recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable eSIM for travel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Daily navigation and chat? Go unlimited. A fixed chunk with predictable speed and nothing to throttle? Go fixed. Either way, you pick the trip\u2019s style before you pick the plan.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mt-8 mb-4 font-normal text-slate-900\">What do unlimited eSIM terms say about hotspot and tethering?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Many unlimited travel eSIM plans block hotspot and tethering completely, or cap shared data to a small part of the daily allowance, like 500MB. A laptop on your phone\u2019s hotspot is where \u201cunlimited\u201d breaks first. Our terms go the other way for the Global eSIM.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Full hotspot and tethering are included at no extra cost. The Wi-Fi Hotspot \/ Internet Sharing feature is available with all eSIM plans, on both Apple iOS and Android smartphones. Turn on Mobile Hotspot \/ Internet Sharing on the phone, where supported in the country, and connect your other devices to the broadcast Wi-Fi network.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Regular roaming use is acceptable: streaming a few hours a day, social media, browsing, email, messaging, hotspot for Zoom calls and corporate VPN. Your laptop gets online wherever your phone does.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mt-8 mb-4 font-normal text-slate-900\">What should you check in a travel eSIM\u2019s terms before trusting \u2018unlimited\u2019?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Check four things: the daily high-speed allowance, the speed after it, when it resets, and any hotspot limit. A provider that states all four in plain words is telling you what unlimited means. Our terms state the allowance, so you can compare before you pay.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Providers set a daily high-speed cap, slow the speed once it\u2019s used, reset every 24 hours or at midnight, and limit hotspot sharing. If any of those four lines is missing, you\u2019re guessing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Our own terms add two lines. Some restrictions apply to very high usage of Unlimited eSIM plans, in order to assure high service quality for everyone. We may also apply network management measures, such as deprioritisation during congestion, to usage patterns inconsistent with normal individual mobile use.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Four lines, one comparison, no surprises at the airport gate.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mt-8 mb-4 font-normal text-slate-900\">How do you make a daily high-speed allowance last all trip?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Watch your usage in your Maya Mobile account and know when your allowance refreshes. We don\u2019t publish a tip list for stretching the Daily Quota, so the tools we point to are the ones that show you where you stand. Even at throttled speeds around 1 Mbps, basic navigation and text apps generally still function.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">You can view your current data usage at any time by logging in. Under the data usage bar, the line \u201cData Refresh at&#8230;\u201d gives your refresh time in UTC. Check it once and plan your heavy-data hour around it.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mt-8 mb-4 font-normal text-slate-900\">Which unlimited travel eSIM should you buy for your trip?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Each company\u2019s own published words on how it sells unlimited data, its daily allowance and its speed limit sit side by side, row for row. Read the allowance and the speed after it against your own daily use.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mt-1 mb-4 overflow-x-auto\">\n<table class=\"min-w-full border-collapse border border-slate-200\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th class=\"border border-slate-200 px-4 py-3 text-left font-medium text-slate-900 bg-slate-50\">Travel eSIM<\/th>\n<th class=\"border border-slate-200 px-4 py-3 text-left font-medium text-slate-900 bg-slate-50\">How plans are sold<\/th>\n<th class=\"border border-slate-200 px-4 py-3 text-left font-medium text-slate-900 bg-slate-50\">Unlimited plan allowance, as published<\/th>\n<th class=\"border border-slate-200 px-4 py-3 text-left font-medium text-slate-900 bg-slate-50\">Hotspot, as published<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"border border-slate-200 px-4 py-3 text-slate-700\"><strong>Maya Mobile<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"border border-slate-200 px-4 py-3 text-slate-700\">One Global eSIM for 165+ countries, unlimited data at a flat price by trip length: USD 9.99 for 3 days, USD 19.99 for 7 days, USD 27.99 for 14 days, USD 49.99 for 30 days<\/td>\n<td class=\"border border-slate-200 px-4 py-3 text-slate-700\"><strong>A daily high-speed data allowance (the Daily Quota) at up to 4G LTE or 5G where local networks offer it, reset every 24 hours; unlimited data at standard speed once the Daily Quota is used<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"border border-slate-200 px-4 py-3 text-slate-700\">Hotspot and tethering included with every plan at no extra cost, where the local network allows it<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"border border-slate-200 px-4 py-3 text-slate-700\">Airalo<\/td>\n<td class=\"border border-slate-200 px-4 py-3 text-slate-700\">Per country, per region, or one global plan; priced in USD<\/td>\n<td class=\"border border-slate-200 px-4 py-3 text-slate-700\">Our unlimited data packages don\u2019t have a fixed total data cap.

If a plan shows as expired, you can buy a new plan in the Maya app in under a minute, unless Auto Top-Up is on, in which case it buys the plan for you.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"mt-6 mb-3 text-lg font-normal text-slate-900\">What is Auto Top-Up and is it on by default?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">No, it\u2019s off by default and opt-in only. Auto Top-Up is an optional feature that automatically buys the same plan again when the current one expires. You can turn it off any time from My eSIM.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"mt-6 mb-3 text-lg font-normal text-slate-900\">Do I need a new eSIM for every trip?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">No. One eSIM is installed on your device and stays there permanently, ready after a plan expires. For each trip you only buy a new plan, with no reinstalling.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"mt-6 mb-3 text-lg font-normal text-slate-900\">How do I check how much high-speed data I have used today?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Log in to your Maya Mobile account, click the eSIM name or select Manage eSIM, then view the data usage bar for a specific Data Plan. The Data Usage tab gives a full breakdown. Under the bar, \u201cData Refresh at&#8230;\u201d shows your refresh time in UTC. The Download CSV button on the Data Usage tab downloads usage records.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"mt-6 mb-3 text-lg font-normal text-slate-900\">When should I install my travel eSIM before a trip?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Install before you arrive. On iOS, the QR code method in the Maya Mobile app is marked Recommended. Your plan clock starts when you enable the Maya eSIM in phone settings, and on arrival you set it as the primary Cellular\/Mobile Data plan.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"mt-6 mb-3 text-lg font-normal text-slate-900\">Does unlimited data work on a cruise ship?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Yes, with the Global + Cruise plan, a separate purchase from the Global plan. It covers 20+ cruise lines and 165+ countries, including Royal Caribbean International, Norwegian Cruise Line and Carnival Cruise Line. Cruise eSIMs bring unlimited data at sea.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"mt-6 mb-3 text-lg font-normal text-slate-900\">Which phones work with a Maya travel eSIM?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"my-3 text-slate-700 leading-relaxed\">Most modern smartphones, including iPhone 11 and newer and Android devices running Android 10 or later. The list covers iPhones from the iPhone XR\/XS series through the iPhone 17 series, Samsung Galaxy S20 to S25 series and Pixel models from the Pixel 3 up.
