Refund policy

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.

Yesim: Refunds within 30 days of purchase only if the plan/top-up hasn't been activated, used or expired (installing the eSIM profile counts as activation); approved refunds go to the original payment method, but amounts of €10 or less are credited as Ycoins.

Validity starts

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.

Yesim: You select a desired activation time when purchasing a plan in the app -- validity is not automatically triggered at purchase.

Fair-use limit

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.

Yesim: Yesim itself does not enforce a Fair Usage Policy on its Unlimited plans, but some of its partner network providers may apply their own FUP as part of their own terms, per Yesim's Help Center.

Top-ups & rollover

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.

Yesim: Additional data can be bought at any time from the Yesim app or website, added to the same eSIM.

Lost device / reinstalling

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

Yesim: Yesim eSIM profiles use a one-time activation code -- don't remove the profile or rescan the QR code, as that can wipe your settings; if lost or it fails to install, contact Yesim support for a new QR code.

Billing currency

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.

Yesim: Based on the pre-selected currency on the account. Yesim accepts EUR, AUD, CAD, PLN, GBP, USD
