VoaSim prices on 01/11/2026, unlimited data, per eSIM; no promotion applied.

Every plan here includes unlimited data. The clock starts at the first connection at the destination, so you can install the eSIM at home a week before departure without losing a day. For the method behind these numbers, see our guide to eSIM cost per day.

Lowest per-day cost: Thailand, the United States and Australia

Thailand leads at every trip length. The 5-day plan costs USD 12.90 (USD 2.58 per day), the 10-day plan USD 26.90 (USD 2.69 per day) and the 30-day plan USD 42.90, which works out to USD 1.43 per day. Details are on the eSIM Thailand page.

The United States comes second on long stays: USD 55.90 for 30 days, or USD 1.86 per day. Australia follows at USD 57.90 for 30 days (USD 1.93 per day) and has the second-lowest 10-day price in the table, USD 27.90 (USD 2.79 per day).

Highest per-day cost: Brazil and Argentina

South America sits at the top of the range. In Brazil, the 5-day plan is USD 23.90 (USD 4.78 per day) and the 7-day plan USD 33.90 (USD 4.84 per day), the highest per-day figure in this guide. Even the 30-day plan at USD 117.90 stays at USD 3.93 per day. If you are heading there for Carnaval 2027 (06 to 09/02/2027) or the FIFA Women's World Cup 2027 (24/06 to 25/07/2027), check the eSIM Brazil page.

Argentina starts at the same USD 4.78 per day on 5 days (USD 23.90) but drops faster: USD 3.39 per day on 10 days (USD 33.90) and USD 3.10 per day on 30 days (USD 92.90). Note one quirk: the Argentina 15-day plan (USD 51.90) costs USD 3.46 per day, slightly more than the 10-day plan.

How trip length changes the per-day price

Longer plans almost always cost less per day, but the drop is not linear. In Europe (39 countries, including Switzerland, the UK and Turkey), the per-day cost moves from USD 3.38 on 5 days to USD 3.09 on 10 days and USD 2.10 on 30 days (USD 62.90). The 7-day Europe plan, at USD 3.41 per day, is actually a bit higher than the 5-day plan.

Turkey shows the sharpest step: USD 29.90 for 10 days (USD 2.99 per day) versus USD 33.90 for 15 days (USD 2.26 per day). Five extra days for USD 4.00 more makes the 15-day plan worth considering even for a 12-day trip.

  1. Count the nights you will actually be at the destination.
  2. Compare the per-day cost of the plan just above your trip length.
  3. Remember the days only start at first connection, not at purchase.

Holafly offered "3 eSIMs for the price of 2" from 24/11 to 02/12/2025 with the code BLACKFRIDAY (esim.holafly.com, 04/12/2025). Nomad partner codes ranged from 22% to 30% (AOL, 24/11/2025).

When you compare offers, divide the final checkout total by the days you will use. VoaSim keeps its published price, so the per-day figures in the table above stay the same through November. Our Black Friday eSIM guide hub collects the other comparisons for this season.
