YouTrip eSIM vs competitors

The roaming eSIM market is highly competive with many Singapore telco/MVNOs in Singapore offering high data roaming allowances on contract-free mobile plans (e.g. Eight, SIMBA).

If you’re travelling to neighbouring Southeast Asian countries like Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand, you should be well covered by these plans, with hundreds of gigabytes worth of monthly data included.

So, the real need for a data roaming eSIM is usually for countries/regions further away like:

  • Mainland China
  • Japan
  • South Korea
  • Europe
  • USA

I did some basic comparisons on eSIM plans for these regions on YouTrip vs Klook and highly-rated options on Shopee for 20GB data roaming plans with 30 days validity (a healthy amount for most 10-15 day trips).

EuropeS$21S$21.65S$34.75
USAS$21.80S$37.98S$31.69

Note: SIMBA’s S$18 plan currently includes 30GB roaming data for Mainland China and South Korea, so that may be a better option for you.

As you can see, YouTrip’s eSIM prices are highly-competitive, beating its competitors for most regions. Do note, however, that you’ll likely be able to use Klook or Shopee vouchers in many cases to lower the prices on those platforms.
