introduction

What Is iRoamly, and Who Is It For?

iRoamly is a prepaid eSIM reseller with no network of its own; it says it partners with more than 50 telecom operators and sells to travelers directly, alongside wholesale and affiliate channels. The terms name two entities, IROAMLY LIMITED in Hong Kong and LONSHIWILL LTD in London. Buyers pick a country plan, a regional bundle or one of two global plans, then choose Daily, Total or Unlimited data, and install by QR code or through the iOS and Android app.

Budget backpackers in Asia

Thailand lists 193 plans and 10GB for 30 days costs USD 7.50, which keeps a multi-country loop through the region cheap.

Short-trip travelers

One-day 500MB plans for the US, Japan, Thailand, South Korea and Turkey cost between USD 0.42 and 0.80.

Japan and China visitors

Japan alone has 306 plans, and a China, Hong Kong and Macau bundle covers the mainland side.

Not for number-dependent or phone-swapping travelers

Nearly all plans are data only, and each eSIM is locked to a single device.

coverage

Which Countries Does iRoamly Cover?

iRoamly coverage is easiest to trust when read from its plan catalogue, which lists 163 single-country destinations and 23 regional bundles that together touch 169 countries as of 22 September 2026. The provider’s own marketing is less consistent: the homepage says 150+, the about page says more than 100, and MyBestSim reports 160+, so the catalogue count is the figure to rely on. Named partner networks include T-Mobile and AT&T in the US, KDDI, SoftBank and DOCOMO in Japan, AIS in Thailand, and Three, EE and Vodafone in the UK, while the Europe and Global bundles list no operators. Brunei, the Maldives and four other destinations offer only one plan.

plan breakdown

How Does iRoamly Pricing Work?

iRoamly pricing is pay per plan in US dollars, with no subscription. As of September 2026 the cheapest plan is 500MB for one day in South Korea at USD 0.42, although the homepage advertises $0.06 to $0.92 and MyBestSim says from EUR 0.55. A 10GB, 30-day plan costs USD 10.50 in the US and Europe and USD 9.30 in Japan, while Global-147 is steep at USD 8.00 for 500MB and one day. Sizes run from 500MB to 50GB or Unlimited, over mostly 1 to 30 days.

Fair Usage Policy

Daily plans slow to 384kbps once the daily allowance is spent (512kbps in the UK, Turkey and Europe-33, 256kbps in Japan), Unlimited plans fall to 5 to 10 Mbps, and Total plans state no post-cap rule. Validity begins at first connection to a supported network, with 60 days to activate, and top-up is listed as available.

Is iRoamly Legit?

Is iRoamly legit? The terms name IROAMLY LIMITED in Hong Kong and LONSHIWILL LTD in London, giving the latter as UK Company No. 15255565. Trustpilot showed 4.1/5 from 78 reviews on 22 September 2026, with 55% at five stars and 25% at one star, and the company replies to about 22% of the negative ones. The homepage badge reads “Excellent” at 4 of 5, which appears to be a rounded version of that score. MyBestSim lists 3.9/5 from 598 verified reviews and the App Store 2.3/5 from 53, so the picture is stronger on price and setup than on the app. Checkout asks only for name, billing address and email, and accepts card, PayPal, Google Pay, Apple Pay, Alipay and iMoney account credit. Refund and support detail sit in the questions below.

Pros and cons

What Are iRoamly's Pros and Cons?

07
Common questions

FAQs

  1. Confirm your phone supports eSIM and is network-unlocked; a compatibility list sits on the support pages.
  2. Choose a plan on the website or in the iOS or Android app.
  3. Use QR code activation by scanning the code, or install directly inside the app.
  4. Follow the activation instructions shown for your plan, and keep your order details in case you need support.

The iRoamly refund policy is strict: a full refund is possible only if the eSIM has not been installed or activated, and the request must arrive within 30 days of purchase. Accepted grounds include an incompatible device, a cancelled trip, a persistent network fault after troubleshooting, or an install failure caused by iRoamly. Processing takes 3 to 5 business days, plus up to 30 for your bank. Unused data after expiry is not refunded.

Probably not. The support pages say each eSIM works on one device and cannot be reused after removal, and they set out no reinstall or transfer process. If you are changing phones, contact support before deleting anything, and treat buying a new eSIM as the fallback. Removing the profile by accident appears to end its use, so avoid tidying your eSIM list while traveling.

Only on a small set of plans, mainly for European countries plus Mongolia, Thailand, the Maldives and the Channel Islands, where data, SMS and calls come together. Andorra with 20GB for 30 days costs about USD 21. Everywhere else iRoamly is a data-only eSIM, so voice and messages have to go through internet calling apps, and a local number is not something to expect.

No. Beyond the details given at checkout, nothing else is requested, and the Japan page repeats that. What can actually stop an order is the phone itself, which must support eSIM and be network-unlocked. A compatibility list sits in the support setup pages, and it is worth checking before you pay, since unverified device compatibility is not covered by the refund terms.

Email is the confirmed channel, through support@iRoamly.com or the contact page. The homepage claims 24/7 support, while MyBestSim describes 24/7 chat and email but says email replies can take up to 72 hours, so do not count on a same-day answer. For refund requests, attach screenshots and order details. Billing disputes must be raised within 12 days of the invoice.

Yes, and the support pages suggest doing it one to two days before departure, on Wi-Fi or mobile data. Installing early should not use up validity, because the clock starts on first connection to a supported network. One Trustpilot reviewer said validity “doesn’t work that way”, so check the plan page for your destination before relying on it, and keep the order confirmation handy.

Usage is shown in the iRoamly app or on the website, according to the US country page. How often the balance refreshes is not stated, so do not assume a live figure. Total plans say nothing about what happens once the pot is used up, which makes an early check sensible on trips of a week or more, especially before you head somewhere with weak Wi-Fi.
