ID verification

AirPlans: Not required

eSIMGlobe: Not required

Refund policy

AirPlans: Full refund within 30 days if the eSIM was never installed or activated, wasn't delivered, or had a verified unresolved technical failure; installed plans and wrong-destination purchases are non-refundable.

eSIMGlobe: Refunds within 14 days of purchase if the eSIM hasn't been activated or used; defective eSIMs get a replacement or full refund, processed within 10 business days.

Validity starts

AirPlans: Validity starts when the eSIM connects to a network abroad, not at purchase or installation.

eSIMGlobe: Some plans start immediately after eSIM installation, others only when the device connects to a supported network in the destination country; the rule is set per plan.

Fair-use limit

AirPlans: Unlimited plans come with a daily high-speed allowance (1GB, 2GB or 3GB per day depending on the plan), after which speed drops to a stated rate (512 Kbps to about 2 Mbps) until the next day. Both figures are published per plan in their feed and shown on each plan row here.

eSIMGlobe: Unlimited plans include a high-speed data allowance (commonly around 1GB) per cycle, after which speed may drop to as low as 512 Kbps until the next reset; exact allowance/reset/speed vary by plan and appear on the product page.

Top-ups & rollover

AirPlans: Existing eSIMs can be topped up with more data from the My eSIMs screen in the app, no reinstall needed.

eSIMGlobe: Product pages flag 'Top Up Available: Yes' for supported plans, letting you add data to the existing eSIM without reinstalling; not every plan supports top-up.

Lost device / reinstalling

AirPlans: A deleted AirPlans eSIM cannot be reinstalled with the same QR code/activation code -- each code works only once, so contact support before deleting anything if you might need it again.

eSIMGlobe: eSIMGlobe's Terms & Conditions list 'the customer deleted the eSIM after installation' as a case where refunds won't be granted -- effectively meaning a deleted eSIM isn't reissued or refunded.

Billing currency

AirPlans: Checkout shows prices in your chosen currency, with the exact amount and currency charged confirmed before you pay.

eSIMGlobe: All eSIMGlobe prices and checkout are shown and charged in USD; no alternate billing currency option is offered on the site.
