Refund policy

RoamGo: All sales are final once the eSIM is installed or activated. A refund or replacement is granted where the eSIM failed to activate because of a verified technical fault, after support was given a chance to troubleshoot. Requests must reach support within 30 days of purchase. No refunds for an incompatible or locked device, skipped install instructions, a deleted profile, data already used, or changed travel plans.

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

RoamGo: The validity period starts at the activation event named on each product page, and it genuinely differs per plan: some start on successful payment, others on installation, manual activation, or first connection to a supported network. Each plan page states which rule applies before you buy.

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

Fair-use limit

RoamGo: Fixed-data plans are one bucket for the whole trip - no daily reset and no throttling until the bucket runs out. RoamGo also sells daily-allowance plans, which run at reduced speed after each day's high-speed cap; those are not listed here. Their Terms state that advertised speeds are theoretical maximums from the local carrier, not guaranteed throughput.

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

RoamGo: Top-ups are per plan, not provider-wide: each plan page says "Top-ups available" or "No top-ups on this plan", and RoamGo state they make no promise where the carrier has not confirmed. Where a top-up applies it reuses the same eSIM and QR code with no reinstall, and is priced separately by the carrier. Some plans stay eligible for a limited grace period after expiry.

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

Lost device / reinstalling

RoamGo: Not confirmed yet

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

RoamGo: Prices are charged in USD. The price shown on the site is converted to the visitor's local currency for display only, marked with a "~". Card checkout has a $5 minimum; smaller orders need crypto or account balance.

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