Holafly is the highest-priced major eSIM brand, with a tourist-facing UX and heavy paid-search presence. travel.to is the alternative for people who buy eSIMs to work, not to vacation.

Our angle
Why travel.to over Holafly.
-
1
Refund policy that's a one-click button, not a support thread.
-
2
Pricing structured around how much data you actually need (5 GB, 15 GB, Unlimited) rather than one-size-fits-all unlimited at a premium.
-
3
Brand voice built for people whose Zoom call doesn't care which country they're in — not for vacation photos.
-
4
Dashboard surfaces live data usage so you know how close you are to the fair-use cap.
