Refund policy

4S: Refund eligibility is reviewed case-by-case based on order/eSIM status and reason — no fixed window stated; contact support to request review.

MobiMatter: Cancellation possible only before the eSIM is downloaded/activated (operator fees may apply); after that, full or partial refund only for a genuine fault MobiMatter can't fix within 24h of you reporting it via its troubleshooting tool.

Validity starts

4S: Most plans start counting on first use, when the eSIM connects and begins using data (checked on your 4S service page).

MobiMatter: Depending on the operator, validity starts either when the eSIM is installed or only when it first connects to a network at the destination; check the package's own Product Description.

Fair-use limit

4S: Unlimited plans include a high-speed data quota for the full validity period; after it is used, speed drops to up to 1 Mbps until the plan expires.

MobiMatter: Unlimited packages carry a Fair Usage Policy against abnormal heavy use like continuous large downloads or P2P; MobiMatter may degrade or suspend service for violators, but no fixed data threshold or throttled speed is published.

Top-ups & rollover

4S: Self-serve top-up (same destination/region only) adds high-speed data to the current plan and extends its validity by the top-up package's own validity period.

MobiMatter: A top-up buys a separate package from the same operator that auto-attaches to your existing eSIM (no new QR scan); it adds its own data/validity rather than extending the original plan, and isn't offered by every operator.

Lost device / reinstalling

4S: Each eSIM QR/activation code can only be installed once; a deleted eSIM usually cannot be reinstalled with the same code — contact support for a replacement.

MobiMatter: Deleting the eSIM, or a lost/factory-reset device, counts as 'Customer Induced Damage' voiding refund/replacement — no self-service reissue; contact support.

Billing currency

4S: Checkout supports multiple currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CNY and others via a currency selector); USD is the default.

MobiMatter: You can pick your billing currency at checkout (USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, CAD and more); the price and currency you select is what's charged to your card.
