How Much Is a 5GB eSIM? Pricing Compared for a One-Week Trip

5GB is a comfortable amount for a trip of about a week: enough for maps, social apps and search, plus a reasonable amount of video. Many Bloomy eSIM plans are priced lower than the major alternatives, and in some destinations you'll find plans at roughly one-third to half the price of others (this doesn't mean Bloomy is always the cheapest). Please confirm the current price at checkout.

What can you do with 5GB?

It's a good fit for a week or so of everyday use. If you plan to stream video for long stretches, consider 10GB or more.

Unlimited plans (e.g. Holafly) are excluded. Airalo, Ubigi and trifa are omitted here because comparable sources and conditions weren't available; check their official sites. Regional plans are compared using the lowest-priced multi-area products. Note: these are data-only eSIMs (no phone number, SMS or voice calls); a fair-use policy applies; and connection quality depends on the local network, your device and your location.

What to check before choosing a 5GB plan

  • May not be enough for long video streaming sessions
  • Check speed-management terms and device compatibility
  • Data-only (a phone number and SMS are generally not included)
