How the plans are ranked

Fixed-data plans are ranked by price per GB; unlimited plans by price per day. A plan only counts as covering a trip if its validity is at least the trip length. Commission plays no part in the order. Prices move often, so treat the table as a snapshot from 2026-10-19 and confirm on the provider's page before buying.
