Where Nomad might still win.
Nomad has a well-established app with loyalty rewards.
True. Nomad's app includes a points/rewards program for repeat buyers. If you travel constantly and want to accrue benefits, that's a real perk. We pass equivalent savings up-front via lower base prices.
Nomad has a strong reputation in nomad communities.
Nomad has been featured heavily in remote-work and digital-nomad publications. If brand familiarity matters to you, they're more established in that niche.
Nomad offers a 'rewards' loyalty system.
Points-based discount on future plans. Decent for very frequent travelers. For occasional trips, our lower base price usually beats accrued points.
Common questions.
Why is Flysimio cheaper than Nomad?
Different wholesale partnerships, leaner operations, no loyalty-program overhead. We compete on day-one price, not on points.
Can I use both Nomad and Flysimio at once?
Yes. Most modern phones support dual eSIM. Test Flysimio while keeping Nomad as a backup line.
Does Flysimio use the same carriers as Nomad?
In most countries, yes — both use the local tier-1 carriers (NTT Docomo in Japan, Vodafone in Europe, etc.).
What about Nomad's rewards if I switch?
If you're sitting on a meaningful points balance, redeem it first. For everyone else, the price difference per plan is usually larger than the rewards yield.
Refund policy?

Lower price, no points needed.
The savings are up front. Refundable in 7 days if you change your mind.
