Planning a trip for the new year? Here’s one thing you probably haven’t thought about—roaming charges.
And why would you? It’s not exactly at the forefront of your mind to check your phone plan to see how much you’ll be charged to go abroad, with all the packing and planning that you’re doing. But no one likes a surprise roaming charge on their next phone bill.
One solution may be to pick up a physical SIM in the country you’re visiting—but many phone manufacturers are moving to eSIM cards and don’t always offer physical SIM card slots.

It was pretty good, but there are some quirks you should be aware of.
Thankfully, there are still solutions, like Roamless. Roamless is an eSIM provider that offers services in over 200 countries. The services will switch automatically, as well, adjusting to the country you’re in and the data costs accordingly. The app itself is easy to navigate too, which I found refreshing compared to some carrier sites I’ve used.
But the best thing about Roamless, to me, is the RoamlessFlex program, a prepaid plan that lets you top up your data as needed. While there is also a monthly plan, for many who travel out of the country occasionally, prepaid plans will be the way to go. However, this data will never expire. I think that’s just fantastic, as no one wants to waste money on unused data or for topping up too early.
So, Roamless is easy to use, available in over 200 countries, and doesn’t take your purchased data away. What else can they offer? Well, the carrier also knows everyone is traveling for the holidays, and for the next week, you can get 50% off all travel data with the code SANTA50.
