Eskimo Announcement for the first batch of Unlimited data travel eSIM

Introducing Eskimo Unlimited Data Plans

Eskimo’s Unlimited eSIM plans are finally here. Built for travelers who want hassle-free connectivity every single day, our new plans give you a consistent data experience with clear terms, simple pricing, and support for personal hotspot without surprise slowdowns or complicated setup.

How It Works

Each Unlimited plan gives you 1GB of high-speed 5G data every 24 hours, followed by unlimited access at 512kbps for the rest of the day. This is part of a Fair Usage Policy (FUP) designed to ensure reliable performance for all users.

The plan activates as soon as your eSIM connects to a supported network. For the best experience, only enable data once you arrive at your destination, not while still in transit.

24-Hour Reset Cycle

  • Your plan runs on a rolling 24-hour cycle from your first connection (e.g. 3:00PM to 3:00PM the next day).
  • The 1GB high-speed data resets daily.
  • After the cap, you continue using data at 512kbps, fast enough for messaging, Google Maps, emails, and even light video streaming.

Pro tip: Some providers advertise “unlimited” without disclosing FUP terms. Ours is clear and fair: 1GB at full speed, 512kbps after that. No guesswork.

Hotspot Support Included

Many “unlimited” plans restrict or block tethering entirely. Eskimo does the opposite.

You can share your Unlimited plan via personal hotspot with laptops, tablets, or friends' phones. Just keep in mind that hotspot usage also counts toward your daily 1GB high-speed allowance and drains your battery faster.

Available Countries (Initial Launch)

Unlimited data plans are now available in:

We’re expanding coverage quickly. Expect more countries to be added soon.

What If You Also Have a Fixed Data Plan?

Eskimo lets you stack both plan types on one eSIM. Here’s how the system prioritizes them:

  1. Your Unlimited plan activates first and uses up its daily 1GB.
  2. Once the 1GB cap is hit, if you also have a Fixed plan (e.g. 5GB Global), it will take over to keep you at full speed.
  3. If the Fixed plan runs out and the 24-hour window isn’t up, you’ll continue on Unlimited at 512kbps.

This hybrid setup gives you the peace of mind of Unlimited data, plus the performance of Fixed data when needed.

Choosing Between Unlimited vs Fixed Data

Unlimited Is Better If You:

  • Want predictable daily usage without worrying about overages
  • Are on a longer trip or need ongoing access
  • Travel with devices that stay connected 24/7 (tablets, wearables)
  • Value hotspot support and rollover (if you stack with fixed plans)

Fixed Is Better If You:

  • Know your data usage is light or bursty (under 1GB/day)
  • Need consistent high-speed performance all day
  • Want to control exactly how much data you’re spending

Why Eskimo Unlimited Is Different

  • 1GB of 5G/day + 512kbps after FUP
  • Hotspot support included
  • One eSIM works for all Eskimo data plans, no reinstallation needed

Unlike some operators, you won’t need to call support to understand your plan. You get full transparency, instant activation, and travel-ready service from day one.

FAQs

What does “Unlimited” mean in Eskimo’s plans?

You get 1GB of high-speed data every 24 hours, then unlimited at 512kbps. The full-speed cap resets every 24 hours based on your first connection time.

Can I use it as a hotspot?

Yes. Personal hotspot/tethering is fully supported.

Does it include calls or texts?

No. It’s data-only, but supports VoIP apps like WhatsApp, FaceTime, iMessage, Telegram, and Skype.

Can I use it on iPad or laptop?

Yes, as long as your device is eSIM-compatible and unlocked.

Do I need to reinstall the eSIM to add more data?

No. Just purchase a new Unlimited or Fixed plan, and it will stack automatically.

What happens if I switch countries?

Unlimited plans are country-specific. If you travel outside the coverage zone, you’ll need to activate a compatible plan for your new destination.

Will I get 5G speeds?

Yes. Eskimo supports 5G in 130+ countries, including all Unlimited launch destinations.
