Read directly, not resold
Every provider we read.
Ranked on what a gigabyte costs across their whole catalogue. Not on how many plans they publish, and not on what any of them pays us. No payout figure reaches the code that orders this table.
01 / At a glance
The 16, best typical price first
Every card shows the lowest gigabyte anywhere in that provider's catalogue, what a typical plan costs, and how much of their footprint is 5G. A gold tag means we have a live code for them.
16 providers, best typical price first
Nothing matched that.
Plans counts distinct plans, not plan-market pairs: a regional bundle covering forty countries is one plan here, not forty. Typical is the average across every plan that states an allowance. Unlimited and fair-use plans are excluded from it, because they have no honest per-gigabyte price. 5G share is the proportion of a provider's listings that state 5G, which is a fact about their catalogue rather than a claim about coverage.
02 / Reading the table
What these columns actually mean
Three of them are routinely misread, and one of them is our measurement rather than theirs.
Typical is not the cheapest
It is the average across everything they sell with a stated allowance. A provider with a good average is consistently reasonable. A provider with a low lowest may have one bargain and a catalogue of poor value around it.
Markets is breadth, not depth
A provider selling one regional bundle covers dozens of markets with a single product. Wide coverage and a deep local catalogue look identical in this column and are not the same thing. The provider page separates them.
Price accuracy is our measurement
It comes from our own click stream, not from the provider: the share of sampled prices that still matched when somebody followed the link. A score below 100% means their catalogue and their checkout disagree.
03 / How a provider gets here
By publishing a catalogue we can read.
Nobody is added by hand and nobody buys their way in. A provider appears once their live catalogue imports cleanly and its figures survive the checks that reject a feed outright.
04 / Questions
Before you pick one
The brand matters less than most people expect.
Does the provider I choose actually matter?
Less than the plan does. Most of them resell the same host networks, so coverage is often identical. What differs is price per gigabyte, how the validity clock starts, and whether hotspot is allowed. Pick the plan first and let the provider follow.
Why do you carry so few providers?
Because a provider only appears once their live catalogue imports cleanly and survives our checks. Sites listing fifty are usually reading a marketing page rather than a feed, which is how stale prices get published as current ones.
What is a low price accuracy score telling me?
That their published catalogue and their checkout disagree. It is measured from our own click stream, so it reflects what people actually saw when they arrived. Anything under 100% means expect the price at checkout to differ from the one listed.
Do you earn money from these links?
Yes, on some of them. The figure is never visible to the code that orders this table, and the formula is published in full in our methodology so you can check that claim rather than take it on trust.
Pick the plan, not the brand.
