ESIM Product Comparison


Best Bosnia eSIM

Maya Mobile

Maya is a great option if you need small data packages or an unlimited data ESIM for just a month. Their prepaid ESIMS for Bosnia give you a simple choice – 1-10 GB or unlimited.

I have been using Maya for the last couple of months because their packages are very competitive. Here are their 30-day plans in Bosnia:

No, Bosnia is not the cheapest country to get data in and you can see from the ESIM prices that you might want to reduce your data usage!

If you need more data while in the country you can easily top it up. Or you can have a running monthly plan if you are there for a few months.

Trust is important to me and Maya has 4.6 on TrustPilot, so other people are also happy with them.

They offer some great features many others neglect like

  • unlimited data with a hotspot/tethering
  • a fair use plan as well for heavy use

And they like to use the best providers in each country to get you the top speeds.

Pros

  • Unlimited data plan
  • Hotspot allowed
  • All plans 30 days
  • Top-ups are easy

Cons

  • Not the cheapest unlimited package

Cheapest eSIMs

Airalo

Airalo has very affordable Bosnia ESIM plans that you should definitely consider. They are around $3 per GB which is very affordable when compared to many of their competitors.

Airalo has three eSIMs for Bosnia & Herzegovina:

Airalo is a very simple and reliable EIMS provider for Bosnia. I have used them in lots of different countries. It just takes minutes to buy or top up an ESIM and install it. Especially if you use their App, which makes it so simple it’s scary!

I have literally sat down at the border of a new country, selected a package, installed it and then activated it across the border once I have network access. Minutes!

Pros

  • Lowest per GB prices
  • Top mobile networks
  • Super easy to install

Cons

  • No unlimited data

Very Affordable

aloSIM

Not as well known as Airalo but a big up-and-coming ESIM provider for Bosnia is aloSIM.

They are actually comparable in price to Airalo making them also the cheapest Bosnian eSIM providers on this list, coming in at $3-4 per GB on the largest plan.

Their plans are priced as follows

The only challenge is you have to search for the plans on their website, I was not able to give you a direct link. Annoying :>

Pros

  • Cheapest eSim per GB
  • Easy top up

Cons

  • No unlimited plans

Nomad

Esims can get a little confusing with Nomad because they often have two types of plans with the same size. One mixed carrier plan (prices shown below) and a more expensive best single carrier plan – this time with One in Montenegro.

So, Nomad has some of the cheapest prices, but the more expensive plans are with the best carrier. So you can decide what you want. If you are in a city, then it usually does not matter, but Montenegro is sparsely populated and we found a lot of spots in the mountains where reception was patchy.

Nomad’s prepaid eSIM plans for Montenegro include:

I have used Nomad plans a lot while traveling in Europe and they are definitely reliable and easy to use. It is just a matter of finding the cheapest eSIM for you. And as always, I recommend doing everything via the App so that you can monitor your usage and top up when you need to.

Pros

  • Lots of plans and sizes
  • Great speeds, reliable
  • Easy to install & top-up

Cons

  • No unlimited data
  • Different plans can be confusing

Holafly

Holafly only has one Bosnia ESIM plan and it is not very competitive. They usually have great deals on unlimited data ESIMs in Europe, but in this case they don’t.

Their Bosnia eSIM is for 6 GB for 15 days. It costs $34 which is a little on the pricey side too at $5.6 per GB.

So, if you are in Montenegro, I would go with one of the other providers in this case.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Easy to use

Cons

  • Expensive
  • Only one plan

Benefits of Getting an eSim in Bosnia

From my recent experience traveling in Bosnia with eSIMs I can only tell you about all the benefits of them

  • Cheaper data
  • Easier to get than a pSIM (physical SIM)
  • Easy to top-up
  • No more waste
  • Easy to swap, change, delete

This is the new digital norm when it comes to SIMs. No more stressing about where to go, where to buy, how to install etc. Just buy, activate and keep traveling!

Land in Bosnia or cross the border and you will have prepaid data ready to go. We were crossing a lot of borders in this region and swapping ESIMS every few days. It was a piece of cake compared to the hassle of a SIM card.

Devices Compatible with Bosnia eSims

In Bosnia, like the rest of the world, modern mobile phones like the iPhone X and later have eSIM capabilities. You can even add them to smartwatches and laptops.
