The monthly plan is the option most travelers overlook, because it's usually presented as a subscription for nomads. It isn't only that. Because you can cancel anytime, a monthly plan works perfectly well as a one-trip purchase — and for longer trips it often costs less than buying a long destination eSIM. Here's exactly how it works, what it costs, and when it's the smarter buy.

Cancelling: how it actually works

This is the part that makes the monthly plan flexible enough to use for a single trip:

  • No contract or minimum term. Cancel whenever you like from your Holafly dashboard.
  • No cancellation fee.
  • You keep what you've paid for. Service runs to the end of the current billing period, then stops renewing.
  • The eSIM doesn't die. Keep the profile installed and it drops to Always On — 1GB of free backup data every month across 150+ destinations.
The one thing to actually do: set a reminder for your return date. The monthly plan only stays cheap if you remember to cancel — otherwise it renews. That's the whole catch, and it's easily managed.

When the monthly plan beats a destination eSIM

Here's the comparison that isn't obvious. A long single-country eSIM can cost more than a month of unlimited Plans:

  • 30-day destination eSIM: $73.90, or $70.21 with the code — one country, daily hotspot allowance only.
  • One month of Plans Unlimited: $58.41 with the code — 160+ destinations, unlimited hotspot, cancel after.

So for a trip of roughly a month or longer, the monthly plan is usually cheaper and more capable — and it covers you if your plans change and you cross a border. The same logic applies even more strongly to regional eSIMs on longer trips.

When the destination eSIM still wins: short trips. For a week in one country, the eSIM is far cheaper ($26.13 for 7 days) and there's no subscription to remember to cancel. Don't overbuy.

Monthly vs quarterly vs annual

  • Monthly — $58.41 with the code. Best for one long trip, or travel that's occasional and unpredictable. Cancel when you're home.
  • Quarterly — about $52.79/month (up to 20% off). Best for a season abroad. Note it bills three months upfront.
  • Annual — about $595/year, roughly $49.56/month (up to 26% off). Best value if you travel several times a year or full-time. This is what we use.

The code does more the longer you commit: 10% monthly, up to 20% quarterly, up to 26% annually.

Holafly monthly plan FAQ

How much is the Holafly monthly plan?

Holafly Plans Unlimited is $64.90 per month, or $58.41 with code THEDUFRESNES (10% off). The Light plan is $49.90, or $44.91 with the code. Both cover 160+ destinations on one eSIM.

Can I cancel the Holafly monthly plan anytime?

Yes. Monthly Plans cancel anytime from your Holafly dashboard with no fee or minimum term. Service continues to the end of the billing period you have already paid for, then stops.

What happens after I cancel?

Your paid service runs to the end of the current billing period. After that the eSIM stays installed and drops to Always On — 1GB of free backup data each month across 150+ destinations — as long as you keep the profile on your phone.

Is the monthly plan worth it for a single trip?

It can be. Once a trip runs past about a month, monthly Plans often cost less than a long single-destination eSIM, and you get unlimited hotspot plus 160+ destinations. For a short one-country trip, a destination eSIM is cheaper.

Monthly or annual — which should I choose?

Monthly (10% off with the code) suits one long trip or occasional travel, and you can cancel when you get home. Annual (up to 26% off, about $595/year) is better value if you travel several times a year or full-time.

Does the monthly plan include hotspot?

Plans Unlimited includes unlimited hotspot, so you can tether a laptop or share with travel companions freely. Plans Light includes 25GB per month shared between data and hotspot.
