No-KYC eSIM price index — September 2026 edition
This is a monthly snapshot of what it costs per gigabyte to buy mobile data from providers that do not ask for identity documents. We record the US, UK, Thailand, Japan and Europe, plus how each provider handles expiry, payment and accounts.
It is compiled by Anon eSIM, which is one of the providers in the table — read it with that in mind. Competitor figures are what their public pages showed on 2026-09-19, and they are rounded; prices change without notice. "n/c" means we did not capture that figure this edition. If a number is wrong, email help@anonesim.io and we will correct it within 48 hours.

Method
For each provider we price the smallest plan that includes 1 GB, divided by its size. If the provider bills per megabyte against a balance instead of selling plans, we record the pay-as-you-go per-GB rate directly. Where the entry plan's size is not published, we say so in the footnote rather than guess.
Every figure in this edition was checked on 2026-09-19. Prices are rounded to the cent as published; currency conversions, where a provider prices in another currency, use the rate shown at checkout on the check date. There are no affiliate links in this table, no provider paid to appear or to be ranked, and no provider saw the figures before publication.
The index is refreshed monthly. Each edition keeps the previous ones so the change history stays readable.
