Policies compared

Confirmed from each provider's own site — see the trust card on each provider page for the verification date.

ID verification

AirPlans: Not required

Eskimo: Not confirmed yet

Refund policy

AirPlans: Full refund within 30 days if the eSIM was never installed or activated, wasn't delivered, or had a verified unresolved technical failure; installed plans and wrong-destination purchases are non-refundable.

Eskimo: ESKIMO GUARANTEE: if you cannot install the eSIM or connect to the network, contact 24/7 live chat for immediate verification and refund. Once connected, any remaining data balance is non-refundable if the account is later cancelled or terminated.

Validity starts

AirPlans: On most plans validity begins the first time the eSIM connects to a supported network at the destination, not at purchase or install; AirPlans' Terms note some plans instead start on installation, as stated in each plan's terms.

Eskimo: Data plans have no expiration date. Validity starts when the eSIM first connects to a supported network (or transfers data), and the remaining balance never expires unless the account itself is cancelled.

Fair-use limit

AirPlans: Unlimited plans come with a daily high-speed allowance (1GB, 2GB or 3GB per day depending on the plan), after which speed drops to a stated rate (512 Kbps to about 2 Mbps) until the next day. Both figures are published per plan in their feed and shown on each plan row here.

Eskimo: Fixed data plans have no daily caps or throttling (full speed); Unlimited day passes give 3GB high-speed per day, then unlimited at 1 Mbps.

Top-ups & rollover

AirPlans: Existing eSIMs can be topped up with more data from the My eSIMs screen in the app, no reinstall needed.

Eskimo: Top up from the Eskimo app or website: the new plan is added instantly to your existing eSIM with no reinstallation and kicks in when the current plan reaches 0 MB.
