Refund policy

AeriSIM: Full or partial refund, or a replacement, if the eSIM can't be installed or used due to a fault on AeriSIM's or the carrier's side; incompatible or carrier-locked phones are refunded minus $2 or 10% (whichever is higher). No refund once installed, for changed plans, or after the activation window.

BNESIM: Refund requests must be made within 14 days of purchase and are denied once over 10% of the plan's data has been used; approved refunds go to BNE Wallet credit (24h) or the original payment method (up to 3 business days).

Validity starts

AeriSIM: Validity starts once the eSIM connects to a supported network and begins using data; you can install before departure but keep it switched off. Some plans start on installation or a fixed date, as stated on the product page.

BNESIM: Data validity starts counting down as soon as a plan is purchased by default; BNESIM also lets you schedule activation for a specific future day instead. Once installed, the eSIM begins working within about a minute of connecting to a local network.

Fair-use limit

AeriSIM: Varies by plan and is listed on each product page: daily plans slow down after the daily high-speed allowance (e.g. Japan: 128 kbps, resets 0:00 UTC+8); some unlimited plans have a stated speed cap instead.

BNESIM: Unlimited-data plans may be suspended if daily usage reaches 5GB or monthly usage reaches 100GB; BNESIM reserves the right to limit speed for very high network use.

Top-ups & rollover

AeriSIM: Depends on the plan: check My eSIMs and the order details; if a top-up is not offered, buy another plan for the same destination.

BNESIM: Top up via the BNESIM eSIM app: open My eSIMs, pick the eSIM to recharge, then choose a country and data plan; no reinstall needed.
