About us
What hello esims is – and what it is not
An independent comparison for travel eSIMs
hello esims is a comparison and guide site for travel eSIMs. We do not sell eSIMs ourselves and we do not issue any cards – we compare plans, explain the setup and link to the providers.
If you book through one of our links we may earn a commission. The price stays the same for you. Such links are marked as advertising on the page.
An independent comparison, not a sales pitch
What you will find here
Plan comparison
Data volume, validity and price of the available plans at a glance.
Guides
Step by step to a working eSIM – for iPhone and Android.
Context
How much data you actually need and what to watch out for in a plan.
What we do
eSIM plans are hard to compare: different durations, data allowances and conditions. We present that information so you can decide in a few minutes – and we say what we are not sure about.
How we work
We only state what can be supported: data volume, validity, price and host network come from the providers. Where rules can change – regulatory topics for instance – we say so instead of presenting it as settled.
Why this site
Focused on one country
Instead of covering a hundred countries superficially, we go deep on one destination – currently Turkey.
Written in German
Written for travellers from German-speaking countries, not machine-translated from English.
Prices come from a plan table
Prices are not in the body text but in a table – so they do not go stale unnoticed inside an article.
Transparently funded
This site is funded through commissions from advertising links. That is stated at every such link, not only in the fine print.
No support for booked plans
For questions about a booked plan the provider is responsible – we have no access to your booking.
What we hold to
No invented reviews
This site carries no user reviews that we did not collect ourselves.
No superlatives without evidence
We do not use wording like "best provider" or "number one" unless we can support it.
Advertising is labelled
Every link to a provider is marked as advertising – visibly for you and technically for search engines.
Correct, do not delete
If something turns out to be wrong we correct the article and note what changed.
Current state
This site is being built. The focus is currently on eSIM plans for Turkey; more destinations will follow once we can cover them in the same depth.
