Singapore is unusual among eSIM destinations: every network blankets the whole island, so coverage is a solved problem and the real choice comes down to price, plan model, and how painless the setup is.
This page lists exactly what each major Singapore eSIM provider charges in July 2026, where each one is the cheapest, and where the value traps are. We sell eSIMs ourselves, so we're not neutral — but where a competitor is cheaper, we say so and point to it.

Travelsim Asia Singapore eSIM prices 2026
This is our product, so take this section with that in mind. Travelsim Asia sells fixed-data plans on StarHub, one of Singapore's three major networks, with full speed throughout and no app or account.
| Data | Validity | Price (USD) | Price per GB |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 GB | 7 days | $2.99 | $2.99 |
| 5 GB | 30 days | $9.99 | $2.00 |
| 10 GB | 30 days | $13.99 | $1.40 |
| 20 GB | 30 days | $19.99 | $1.00 |
| 50 GB | 30 days | $34.99 | $0.70 |
Network: StarHub — a tier-1 Singapore network with full nationwide coverage and 5G. No app, no account; the eSIM arrives by email and installs in any browser, with top-ups through a web portal. No unlimited plans, no 3 GB tier. Cheapest 1 GB, 10 GB, and 20 GB plans in this comparison.
Airalo Singapore eSIM prices 2026
Airalo is the most widely recognised eSIM marketplace. Its Singapore plans run on Singtel and M1, two of the island's strongest networks, and it's the only big-name option with a long ladder of validity windows plus unlimited tiers.
Airalo Singapore fixed plans
| Data | Validity | Price (USD) | Price per GB |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 GB | 3 days | $4.00 | $4.00 |
| 3 GB | 3 days | $6.50 | $2.17 |
| 3 GB | 7 days | $7.00 | $2.33 |
| 5 GB | 7 days | $9.00 | $1.80 |
| 5 GB | 15 days | $9.50 | $1.90 |
| 5 GB | 30 days | $10.00 | $2.00 |
| 10 GB | 7 days | $15.00 | $1.50 |
| 10 GB | 15 days | $15.50 | $1.55 |
| 10 GB | 30 days | $16.00 | $1.60 |
| 20 GB | 15 days | $22.00 | $1.10 |
| 20 GB | 30 days | $23.00 | $1.15 |
| 50 GB | 30 days | $48.00 | $0.96 |
Airalo Singapore unlimited plans
| Validity | Price (USD) |
|---|---|
| 3 days | $11.50 |
| 5 days | $18.50 |
| 7 days | $27.00 |
| 10 days | $34.50 |
| 15 days | $48.00 |
| 30 days | $69.00 |
Networks: Singtel and M1 — excellent island-wide, as every Singapore network is. App and account required. Airalo's "unlimited" plans carry a daily high-speed cap (fair-usage policy) after which speed is reduced; check the current threshold on Airalo's page before relying on it. For a short stopover a small fixed plan is usually better value than the unlimited tier.
Holafly Singapore eSIM prices 2026
Holafly only sells unlimited plans — no fixed data. Its Singapore pricing works out to roughly $3–$4 per day, which is expensive next to fixed plans for a light-data city like Singapore, but Holafly is the closest to genuinely uncapped data with no stated daily throttle.
| Validity | Price (USD) | Price per day |
|---|---|---|
| 5 days | $20.50 | $4.10 |
| 7 days | $27.50 | $3.93 |
| 10 days | $36.50 | $3.65 |
| 15 days | $50.50 | $3.37 |
| 30 days | $73.90 | $2.46 |
Worth knowing: at about $4/day for short trips, Holafly is the most expensive way to get online in Singapore for a typical visitor. A 7-day Holafly plan costs $27.50 — versus $9.99 for a Travelsim Asia 5 GB plan that comfortably covers a few city days. Holafly makes sense only for heavy users who genuinely stream or hotspot several GB a day and want unlimited peace of mind. Runs on Singtel and StarHub.
Nomad Singapore eSIM prices 2026
Nomad is the value pick at the top and bottom of the range: it has the cheapest 5 GB and 50 GB plans in this comparison, and the lowest cost per GB overall. Its plans run on Singtel and StarHub.
| Data | Validity | Price (USD) | Price per GB |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 GB | 7 days | $4.00 | $4.00 |
| 3 GB | 30 days | $6.50 | $2.17 |
| 5 GB | 30 days | $9.00 | $1.80 |
| 10 GB | 30 days | $14.00 | $1.40 |
| 20 GB | 30 days | $21.00 | $1.05 |
| 50 GB | 30 days | $31.00 | $0.62 |
Networks: Singtel and StarHub. App required. Nomad's 5 GB ($9.00) and 50 GB ($31.00) are the cheapest at those sizes, and its 50 GB works out to $0.62/GB — the lowest per-GB rate in this comparison. Nomad also lists promotional soft-unlimited tiers (5 days $18.00, 10 days $27.00) with a high-data daily allowance; if you want a lot of data on a longer stay, the 50 GB fixed plan is usually the cleaner deal.
Saily Singapore eSIM prices 2026
Saily is built by the NordVPN team — a clean app and simple pricing, though it doesn't publicly disclose which Singapore network it uses. Its plans sit mid-range.
| Data | Validity | Price (USD) | Price per GB |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 GB | 7 days | $3.99 | $3.99 |
| 3 GB | 30 days | $6.99 | $2.33 |
| 5 GB | 30 days | $9.99 | $2.00 |
| 10 GB | 30 days | $15.99 | $1.60 |
| 20 GB | 30 days | $22.99 | $1.15 |
Network: not publicly disclosed for Singapore. Coverage across the island is reliable on any network, so this matters less here than in a country with rural gaps — but if you like to know exactly what you're connecting to, Saily leaves that unstated. App required.
Ubigi Singapore eSIM prices 2026
Ubigi operates as a full MVNO rather than a reseller. It has the cheapest 3 GB plan in this comparison and a set of short high-cap "unlimited" tiers that suit a stopover. Its plans run on Simba and StarHub.
| Data | Validity | Price (USD) | Price per GB |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 GB | 7 days | $3.00 | $3.00 |
| 3 GB | 15 days | $6.00 | $2.00 |
| 10 GB | 7 days | $11.00 | $1.10 |
| 10 GB | 30 days | $14.00 | $1.40 |
| 25 GB | 30 days | $24.00 | $0.96 |
Ubigi Singapore short-stay unlimited plans
| Validity | Price (USD) |
|---|---|
| 2 days | $9.00 |
| 7 days | $19.00 |
| 15 days | $35.00 |
| 30 days | $49.00 |
Networks: Simba and StarHub. App required. Ubigi's $6.00 / 3 GB plan is the cheapest 3 GB in this comparison, and its $9.00 / 2-day unlimited is a neat fit for a short Singapore stopover. Its longer "unlimited" tiers carry a fair-usage cap, so treat them as high-allowance rather than truly limitless.

Prices verified July 2026. Ubigi's nearest large plan is 25 GB / 30 days at $24.00. "d" = days validity.
Travelsim Asia has the lowest Singapore price at 1 GB, 10 GB, and 20 GB — including the cheapest entry point in the market at $2.99. Nomad is cheaper at 5 GB ($9.00 vs $9.99) and 50 GB ($31.00 vs $34.99), and has the lowest cost per GB overall. Ubigi is cheapest at 3 GB ($6.00), a size Travelsim Asia doesn't sell. For the popular 10 GB and 20 GB tiers most week-long visitors buy, Travelsim Asia is the cheapest — with no app and no account.
Which Singapore eSIM gives the best value?
Singapore is a light-data destination, so the best plan depends mostly on trip length. Here's the straightforward breakdown:
- Stopover or 1–2 days: Travelsim Asia 1 GB at $2.99 is the cheapest entry in the market, on StarHub with 7-day validity. Ubigi's $3.00 / 1 GB and $9.00 / 2-day unlimited are close alternatives.
- A few days, light use (5 GB): Nomad at $9.00 / 30 days is cheapest, with Travelsim Asia and Saily a dollar behind at $9.99. All three are within a dollar, so no-app setup (Travelsim Asia) or network preference can decide it.
- A week, regular use (10 GB): Travelsim Asia at $13.99 / 30 days is cheapest, edging Nomad and Ubigi at $14.00. Avoid Airalo ($16.00) and Saily ($15.99) on price at this tier.
- Long stay or remote work (20 GB): Travelsim Asia at $19.99 / 30 days is $1+ cheaper than every alternative and the only plan under $20 at this size.
- Heavy data (50 GB): Nomad at $31.00 / 30 days is cheapest and the lowest per-GB rate anywhere ($0.62/GB); Travelsim Asia's $34.99 is second.
Why coverage isn't the deciding factor in Singapore
In most eSIM destinations, the network you connect to changes where your phone works. Singapore is different. It's a dense city-state a fraction the size of most metro areas, and all four networks — Singtel, StarHub, M1, and Simba — deliver strong 4G and 5G across the whole island, the MRT tunnels included.
That means the usual coverage question barely applies. Travelsim Asia runs on StarHub, Airalo on Singtel and M1, Holafly and Nomad on Singtel and StarHub, Ubigi on Simba and StarHub, and Saily doesn't say — and in practice all of them work everywhere a visitor goes, from Changi to Sentosa to the CBD. With coverage settled, the decision comes down to price, plan model, and setup friction, which is where this page focuses.
Unlimited vs fixed: which is better for Singapore?
Singapore rarely needs unlimited. WiFi is everywhere — hotels, malls, the MRT, most cafés, and Changi — so your eSIM mostly covers Grab, maps, and messaging between WiFi spots. That keeps real usage low, which favours a small fixed plan.
| Fixed data plan | Unlimited plan | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Most Singapore visitors | Heavy daily streaming or hotspot |
| Speed | Full speed to plan total | Full speed, some plans cap daily |
| Price | Lowest for light use | Higher — pay for headroom |
| Example | Travelsim Asia 5 GB / 30d / $9.99 | Holafly 7d / $27.50 |
For most Singapore trips, a 1–10 GB fixed plan is the sweet spot. With WiFi as widespread as it is here, even a week of Grab, maps, and messaging rarely tops 5–10 GB. Unlimited only pays off if you're hotspotting a laptop all day or streaming heavily on cellular rather than WiFi.
Hidden costs and things to check
- Short validity on cheap plans. Airalo's 1 GB lasts only 3 days, and several of its low prices are 7-day windows. Travelsim Asia, Nomad, Saily, and Ubigi give 1 GB a 7-day life. Check validity next to price.
- "Unlimited" usually has a daily cap. Only Holafly is close to genuinely uncapped. Airalo, Nomad, and Ubigi unlimited tiers throttle after a daily or total allowance — fine for a stopover, worth reading before a long stay.
- Local SIMs need passport registration. A physical Singapore prepaid SIM requires ID registration by law. Every eSIM here skips that — you buy, install, and switch on with no forms.
- App-and-account setup. Airalo, Nomad, Saily, and Ubigi need an app and account before you can install. Travelsim Asia delivers by email with no app — useful if you're setting up last-minute.
