Refund policy

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.

SimSmash: Full refund if the eSIM has not been activated. Once activated, a partial refund pro rata to the unused data is offered within 24 hours of purchase. Contact support.

Validity starts

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

SimSmash: Validity starts on activation, not on purchase; the eSIM can be bought up to 30 days before departure.

Fair-use limit

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.

SimSmash: Not confirmed yet

Top-ups & rollover

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