GigSky eSIM test 2026

2,643 plans for 152+ countries from €0,52/GB. Independent test, daily-fresh prices.

GigSky is a US-based eSIM pioneer that has been selling international data since 2010 — long before eSIM was mainstream. The company runs partnerships with Tier-1 carriers in 190+ countries and is the eSIM provider chosen by Apple for the in-Settings travel data feature on iPhones in selected markets, which speaks to its reliability. The catalogue covers exotic destinations like cruise ships, in-flight Wi-Fi alternatives and remote islands that most competitors don't touch. Pricing is firmly in the premium segment — GigSky is not for budget travellers — but the network quality, speed and global redundancy are excellent, and the app is straightforward to use on both iOS and Android.

Credit Card Link Worked Great

Easy to figure out what benefits the credit card provided for GigSky, but but connection was a little spotty on the East Asia plan.

Easy setup and enough data for Uber orders to get around the city.

Fairly reliable service, complimentary with credit cards

We had a couple hiccups but eventually got it to reset and was pretty reliable. Big bonus since we were able to get it complimentary with our credit cards.
