About Firsty
Firsty (from Amsterdam) broke the category’s pricing logic. Install the eSIM once and get free, ad-supported data at reduced speed in most countries, forever. The free tier is genuinely usable for messages and maps. When you need real speed, you buy a fast pass for a few euros a day (around $2 to $4 depending on region). There is no bundle math and nothing expires. The catch is that speeds on free are deliberately modest, and heavy users will outgrow it fast. As the permanent backup eSIM on any phone, and as a first eSIM for skeptics, it is unbeatable at the price of zero.
“The Dutch disruptor giving away free data. The ad-supported free tier delivers slow but genuinely usable connectivity in most of the world, and fast day passes cost a few euros. As a backup eSIM that lives on every phone, it is a no-brainer.”Editorial team, via eSIMShortlist
