What Airalo charges

The cheaper end of Airalo's catalogue works out at $2.00 a gigabyte. That is well above the $1.34 a gigabyte works out at for the median provider we track. Airalo is one of the pricier catalogues we cover, 46 of 53 counting from the cheapest, though a headline rate is not the whole story on a plan you will actually use.

In September 2026 we started counting a plan sold at several trip lengths as one plan, so the month-by-month line starts again from then — it returns once we hold 4 monthly snapshots.

Each figure is the lower quartile of every plan the provider lists — the cheaper end of their range, not an average — against the same figure for the median provider we track.

Where Airalo puts you on the internet

Airalo does not publish where its traffic reaches the internet, so we cannot tell you. That is a gap in what the provider states rather than a finding about how it routes — a provider that publishes nothing may well come out locally everywhere. We only report exits a provider declares, plan by plan, and we do not infer the rest.

What sort of provider Airalo is

Airalo sells data eSIMs at three scopes: single-country, regional and global, with unlimited-data options on some destinations. Everything is bought and installed through its iOS and Android apps, which support many languages and currencies. A separate Airalo Partners division supplies reseller platforms, API access and corporate arrangements to businesses building on its catalogue.

Voice and SMS are features Airalo states it supports, making its published offer more than data alone; it does not say whether plans include a phone number. Its catalogue spans most of the world, as do several rivals, so destination-level depth is the more useful distinction: Airalo has its deepest selection in France, Georgia, Bahrain, Mauritius and Qatar, and may be thinner just across a border. Plans are country-specific, while tethering and top-up support are not stated; check the terms if either matters.
