ID verification

eSIMCard: Not required

LightSim: Not confirmed yet

Refund policy

eSIMCard: No refunds once the eSIM is installed and used; refunds within 30 days for coverage issues preventing installation, technical problems with no data consumed, or unauthorized purchases.

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.

Validity starts

eSIMCard: The eSIM activates automatically when the first byte of data is consumed at the destination, not at purchase, so it can be bought and installed well in advance.

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

Fair-use limit

eSIMCard: Unlimited bundles include an allowed amount of full-speed data per rolling 24-hour period (starting from first use), after which speed drops for the rest of that period before resetting.

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.

Top-ups & rollover

eSIMCard: Existing eSIMs can be topped up or extended with more data through the eSIMCard app, which also lets you manage active plans.

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