Policies compared

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

ID verification
ByteSim: Not confirmed yet
Roamify: Not required
Refund policy
ByteSim: Full or partial refund for connection issues, depending on the situation; no cancellation fees and a money-back guarantee (ByteSIM FAQ). Full terms are on their Refunds Policy page.
Roamify: Unused/unactivated eSIM purchases are eligible for review within 7 calendar days of purchase (must not be activated, installed, or consumed). Approved refunds are issued within 3 business days; banks/card networks may take a further 5-10 business days to post funds.
Validity starts
ByteSim: Most plans start when the eSIM first connects to a network at the destination; some start on a selected date, in the app or (e.g. the Giffgaff UK eSIM) from purchase, as stated on the product page. Installing early usually does not start the plan; some QR codes must be used within 180 days.
Roamify: Service begins immediately once the eSIM is downloaded and its data plan activated โ€” validity starts on activation, not at purchase.
Fair-use limit
ByteSim: Unlimited plans may be subject to a local operator fair-use policy: heavy use in a short period can be temporarily slowed or deprioritised (1080p streaming still possible), lifted the following day. The per-plan speed policy is stated on each product page.
Roamify: Unlimited plans are subject to a stated Fair Use Policy (preventing fraud/abuse), but no numeric high-speed cap or throttle speed is published โ€” Roamify reserves the right to suspend/throttle without a stated threshold.
Top-ups & rollover
ByteSim: No top-ups or extensions: data on an existing eSIM cannot be renewed; buy a new eSIM when you need more (ByteSIM FAQ: not supported due to the anonymous nature of their eSIM products).
Roamify: Top-up is available in-app for supported eSIMs (not all โ€” the app itself states when a plan can't be topped up), up until 2 hours before the plan expires.
