Holafly
The only eSIM here without a routine daily throttle — at a price.
Checked 26 Jul 2026·3 plans tracked·3 verified from provider·How we check this
Holafly sells only unlimited packages, priced by duration, and runs on Globe in the Philippines. It is the most expensive eSIM we track and, for a specific kind of user, the only one worth buying.
That is because it is the only provider in this comparison that does not impose a routine daily high-speed cap. Airalo throttles after 3GB a day; Nomad throttles after its daily allocation. Holafly states its fair-use policy is applied temporarily, for no more than one day at a time, to manage network traffic.
Every plan includes 1GB of monthly backup data at no extra cost, which is a useful safety net when a package expires mid-trip.

Strengths
- No routine daily throttle — the practical difference from Airalo and Nomad.
- Simple pricing: pick a duration, get unlimited data.
- Includes 1GB monthly backup data.
- 5G where available on the Globe network.
Weaknesses
- The most expensive option here by a wide margin — $73.90 for 30 days.
- Runs on Globe, so provincial and island coverage trails Smart-backed alternatives.
- No fixed-data packages for light users, and no local number.
Who Holafly suits
Heavy data users and remote workers who genuinely cannot predict their usage and need the throttle gone.
Common questions about Holafly
- Is Holafly worth the extra cost over Airalo?
- If you would hit Airalo's 3GB daily cap most days, yes — the prices are close ($73.90 against $71 for 30 days) and only Holafly keeps full speed. If you are a light user, Airalo's fixed-data packages are far cheaper than either.
- Which network does Holafly use in the Philippines?
- Globe, with 5G where available. That is worth knowing if you are travelling outside the major cities, where Smart has better reach.
