Great experience with Nomad!

Super easy installation of the eSIM — just a few taps and I was connected. The coverage was reliable throughout my trip. Prices were better compared to other providers I checked, and I appreciated not needing a physical SIM. Definitely recommend Nomad for hassle-free travel connectivity!

Worked well each time!

I've used Nomad to purchase a data eSIM for multiple countries and it's worked well each time. Activation is fairly simple, and the sim is ready when you are. You can track your data usage in the app and you aren't tricked into another billing cycle like some other companies have done in the past

Only eSim that works for me

I’ve tried other eSims, two other companies, and they never worked, this is the only one that worked for me and another friend who also tried the same two companies, and they didn’t work for her either. It was a huge waste of money and time. I only use Nomad now.

My first ESIM

It’s an amazing eSIM experience. I travel a lot and always use to buy local sims and always was afraid not to have data where I landed! Now the whole world is on my tips! Always connected!
