About AiralSim

Our Mission

AiralSim was founded in 2022 by a team of frequent travellers based in London who were frustrated by the lack of clear, unbiased information about eSIM services. We set out to create a resource that explains the Airalo platform honestly — including its limitations — so that travellers can make informed decisions before purchasing.

We are entirely independent. We receive no commission from Airalo or any other eSIM provider. Our content is based on hands-on testing, user feedback, and regular review of Airalo's published terms and conditions. When something changes — a new plan type, a policy update, a coverage expansion — we update our guides accordingly.

Who We Are

Our editorial team comprises four core contributors: a telecommunications researcher, a consumer rights specialist, a UX writer with a background in travel tech, and a software developer who manages our technical testing. Together, we cover the full spectrum of eSIM usage — from first-time travellers to business professionals managing multiple devices.

We are based at 14 Finsbury Square, London EC2A 1AH, United Kingdom and can be reached at [email protected] or by phone on +44 20 7946 0101.

Our Editorial Standards

Every guide on AiralSim follows a consistent quality framework:

1. Accuracy: All factual claims are verified against Airalo's official documentation or tested directly on device.
2. Completeness: We cover not just how to use the service, but when it may not be appropriate — including device restrictions, coverage gaps, and plan limitations.
3. Transparency: We disclose our independence clearly and do not use affiliate links or sponsored placements.
4. Accessibility: Our guides are written in plain English, with step-by-step instructions suitable for all levels of technical confidence.
5. Currency: We review and update content at least quarterly, or immediately when significant changes occur.
