Refund policy

Airalo: Self-service refund request from your account (My eSIMs > Package History > Request Refund) for wrong purchase, changed plans, installation issues, or a non-working eSIM — expired or fully-used eSIMs aren't eligible. Wrong-purchase/changed-plans refunds go to Airmoney (their in-app credit) only; installation-issue/not-working refunds can go to Airmoney or your original payment method, taking 7-10 business days (up to 30 depending on your bank).

TripoSIM: Full refund if the eSIM hasn't been installed/activated, requested within 30 days of purchase, or there was a technical/provisioning issue or billing error on TripoSIM's end. No refund once activated (data used), after expiry, for an incompatible/locked device, for poor local coverage, or for unused leftover data. Request via [email protected] (24-48h review); approved refunds post in 5-10 business days.

Validity starts

Airalo: Validity starts either when the eSIM connects to the destination network or at the moment of installation, depending on the specific plan — check 'Additional Information > Activation Policy' on the plan page before buying to see which applies.

TripoSIM: Validity countdown starts on first data use, not at purchase or installation -- you can install weeks ahead without losing any time. Unused data does not roll over once the validity period ends.

Fair-use limit

Airalo: Unlimited plans default to a 3GB-per-day full-speed allowance before throttling to 1 Mbps for the rest of that 24-hour period (counted from activation, not purchase); a different daily threshold is stated on the specific plan's page when it applies instead of the 3GB default.

TripoSIM: Unlimited plans give 1GB/day of full-speed data (2–5GB/day on 'Plus' plans), then slow to about 512 kbps (1 Mbps on Plus; 256–384 kbps in Japan, South Korea and China) until the 24-hour reset.

Top-ups & rollover

Airalo: Only plans marked 'rechargeable' (checkable under Additional Information before buying) can be topped up, via the My eSIMs > Top Up option in the app — a non-rechargeable eSIM or one that changed carriers requires buying a new eSIM instead.

TripoSIM: Available on plans tagged "Top-up" -- added instantly from the TripoSIM dashboard. Not every plan supports it; if unavailable, buy a new eSIM for the same destination instead.
