Refund policy

LightSim: 14-day refund window from date of purchase; LightSim reviews requests within 24 hours. Available for technical inability to deliver the service, activation failures, device incompatibility, duplicate/incorrect charges, or an accidental purchase that was never activated/used. Not available once the plan has been used, has expired, or its disclosed usage/validity/fair-use limits have been reached.

Superalink: Refunds only if the eSIM has not been activated and no data has been used; QRIS purchases must be requested within 7 days of purchase.

Validity starts

LightSim: Plan validity starts only when you activate the eSIM at your destination, not at the time of purchase.

Superalink: Starts once the eSIM installs and connects to the local network at your destination — activation from home is possible, but Superalink recommends waiting until arrival; data isn't deducted until it connects there.

Fair-use limit

LightSim: Selected plans are a fixed high-speed data allowance per day (shown per plan) rather than a fixed total; hotspot/tethering sharing is unlimited (no separate cap or speed limit) on every plan.

Superalink: On Unlimited plans, speed drops for the rest of the day once the daily high-speed allowance is used (no extra charge, resets the next day): 10GB/day to 5 Mbps, 5GB/day to 1 Mbps, 500MB-3GB/day to up to 384 Kbps.

Top-ups & rollover

LightSim: Top up your existing plan directly in the app in seconds - no need to reinstall the eSIM.

Superalink: Enter your eSIM's ICCID on Superalink's Top Up page (My Voucher) to add data or extend — no reinstall needed, though it only becomes available once the current package's validity ends or its data runs out.

Lost device / reinstalling

LightSim: Not confirmed yet

Superalink: A deleted eSIM can be reactivated on the same device, but cannot be reissued for a different device, per Superalink's own FAQ.

Billing currency

LightSim: Not confirmed yet

Superalink: USD is the primary payment currency; other currencies may be accepted depending on availability and payment method, with the transaction currency set at the time of purchase.
