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
Nomad: Not required
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.
Nomad: Refund requests must be made within 30 days of purchase: a plan not yet installed or activated may be fully refunded (to the card or as Nomad Points); after activation only a partial refund for verified technical failure. Unlimited plans and a few others are non-refundable.
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.
Nomad: Validity starts only when the eSIM is activated, meaning first connection to a network or the automatic activation-window deadline - not at installation or purchase.
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.
Nomad: Most Unlimited plans give 2 GB of high-speed data per day, then speed drops to about 1 Mbps or 2 Mbps (depending on the plan) for the rest of the day; the allowance resets every 24 hours from activation.
Top-ups & rollover
AirPlans: Existing eSIMs can be topped up with more data from the My eSIMs screen in the app, no reinstall needed.
Nomad: Add-ons can be purchased in the Nomad eSIM app or website (Manage, then Add more data) without reinstalling; not every plan supports add-ons and they cannot be bought from the UAE or India.
