The French eSIM specialist says the validity of its standard plans in around a hundred destinations moves from 30 to 365 days, with a data speed billed as “unlimited”.

In detail, these plans allow up to 5 GB of data per day. After that, speeds are throttled to 1 Mbps until the following day.

Pricing varies by plan and destination but is set upfront to avoid nasty surprises, Kolet adds. Kolet wants to give its eSIM offer greater visibility with more comfortable speeds.

Above all, it aims to address travellers’ lack of forward planning on connectivity, often handled only after arrival.

The company is continuing its drive to simplify, to free travellers from the mental load that the price of connectivity in a foreign country can represent.

This approach is in line with Kolet’s thinking, which has struck partnerships with various travel players to enrich traveller products (airline tickets or insurance, for example) with a connectivity solution requiring nothing more than downloading a mobile app.

“We bet that, in our market, distribution could make the difference,” said Eduardo Ronzano, co-founder and chief executive of Kolet.

“But when you are speaking to all travellers, and not just eSIM initiates, you have to rethink the product around their expectations. Our ambition: to ensure that preparing your connection before travelling is as obvious and easy as downloading your boarding pass.”

Thanks in particular to these partnerships, Kolet says it has multiplied its user base by ten since January 2025. Operating in 190 countries, the company says one million travellers have already activated a Kolet eSIM.
