Pricing notes. Sold mainly as fixed-duration unlimited-data plans rather than per-GB packages. A short unlimited plan starts around S$9; longer durations cost proportionally more.

GST. Digital eSIM plans sold to Singapore consumers have 9% GST included in the displayed price.

Holafly takes a different approach from most travel eSIMs: instead of selling data by the gigabyte, it mostly sells unlimited-data plans for a fixed number of days. For Singaporean travellers who stream, hotspot or video-call heavily on the road, that removes the anxiety of watching a data counter — at a higher price.

Pros & cons

What’s good

  • Unlimited-data plans remove any worry about running out mid-trip.
  • Good fit for heavy users — streaming, hotspotting, video calls.
  • Wide country coverage.

Worth noting

  • More expensive than per-GB rivals for light data users.
  • Unlimited plans are subject to fair-use speed throttling after a daily threshold.
  • Data-only — no local phone number on most plans.

Our verdict

Holafly is worth the premium if you are a heavy data user who would otherwise keep topping up. Light users on short trips will almost always pay less with a per-GB plan from Airalo or Nomad.
