ID verification

Esimatic: Not required

esimgenius: Not confirmed yet

Refund policy

Esimatic: Refunds within 30 days of purchase, only when the eSIM can't be activated due to a technical problem on Esimatic's side after troubleshooting; an installed eSIM is considered used and non-refundable.

esimgenius: Full refund only if the eSIM never activates in the destination country (install/connect failure, incompatible/carrier-locked phone, or the supplier under-delivers data). Wrong-destination purchases are case-by-case if reported within 24h, not guaranteed. Refunded via Stripe within 1 business day (banks take 5-10 more days).

Validity starts

Esimatic: Validity starts when the eSIM auto-connects and uses its first 1KB of data at your destination, not at purchase; unused bundles expire 12 months after purchase.

esimgenius: Validity starts at first network connection, not at purchase. An installed-but-never-activated eSIM is held for 90 days by their supplier before the QR can expire.

Fair-use limit

Esimatic: Day Plan: 1GB of fast 5G data every 24 hours then throttled to 1.25 Mbps; Day Plan+: 2GB fast data daily then throttled to 2 Mbps -- both stay unlimited overall, never fully cut off.

esimgenius: Unlimited plans state no daily data caps or cutoffs from esimgenius itself, but local carrier partners may throttle/restrict on atypical usage as an anti-abuse measure -- no specific threshold stated.

Top-ups & rollover

Esimatic: Top up by buying the same eSIM bundle again from the Esimatic shop on the existing eSIM; no reinstall needed.
