Methodology
We collect the most representative ~5GB plan (or the unlimited 15-day plan where a provider sells unlimited only) from each provider for each destination, in USD, and compute price per GB (price ÷ data) and price per day (price ÷ validity). The Value Score (0–100) blends data price (up to 55 pts, best price-per-GB = full), whether the provider offers an unlimited option (20 pts) and its average user rating (up to 25 pts) — so flexibility and trust count, not just headline price. Prices are listed retail prices captured on the date shown and exclude temporary promo codes; verify the live price at the source before buying. "High" confidence = taken from the provider's own page; "medium" = from a third-party catalogue.
