**Quick answer:** The Fizen Europe eSIM covers 33 countries, from Portugal to Turkey and from Norway to Greece, and on 2 November 2026 a new app user paid up to 30% less than Airalo's Europe prices on five data plans, for example US$18.24 against US$26.00 for 10 GB over 7 days. Airalo's Europe plan lists 41 countries and networks, so check your route before you pick.

**Key takeaways**

- **33 countries on one Fizen eSIM,** including the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland and Turkey (Fizen catalogue, 2 Nov 2026).
- **Save up to 30% on data plans for new app users.** 20 GB for 15 days is US$32.98 against US$47.00 on Airalo.
- **Check the country list first.** Airalo's Europe page says 41 countries and networks; Fizen's plan lists 33\. A route into the Balkans may need a different plan.
- **A different carrier in each country.** Vodafone in Germany and Spain, Bouygues in France, Iliad in Italy, EE in the United Kingdom, Swisscom in Switzerland.

Our main [Europe eSIM guide](https://blog.fizen.io/best-travel-esim-for-europe-2026/) covers when an eSIM beats roaming. This page is narrower: if you are comparing Airalo with the Fizen app for a multi-country trip, here are the prices, the countries and the networks, as of 2 November 2026.

## How do Airalo and the Fizen app compare on Europe prices?

Exclusive to new Fizen app users: US$10 of eSIM credit lands in the eSIM tab the moment you join and pays for up to 30% of each plan until it is used. There is no code, and the credit is valid for 12 months. Unlimited plans get a smaller saving than fixed-data plans. In the app you pay with USDT or by card (Stripe).

| Plan              | Airalo   | Fizen app, new users  |
| ----------------- | -------- | --------------------- |
| 3 GB, 3 days      | US$10.00 | **US$7.02** SAVE 30%  |
| 5 GB, 7 days      | US$18.50 | **US$12.98** SAVE 30% |
| 10 GB, 7 days     | US$26.00 | **US$18.24** SAVE 30% |
| 20 GB, 15 days    | US$47.00 | **US$32.98** SAVE 30% |
| 50 GB, 30 days    | US$70.00 | **US$49.14** SAVE 30% |
| Unlimited, 3 days | US$11.50 | **US$10.04** SAVE 13% |

One row changed since our last price check: Airalo's 3-day unlimited Europe plan is now US$11.50, so the Fizen app's US$10.04 saves 13% rather than the 58% an earlier figure suggested. The data-plan rows are where the gap is widest. For longer unlimited plans, Airalo's Europe prices are close to Fizen's list prices, so compare in the app before you choose.

## Which countries does the Fizen Europe eSIM cover?

The plan in the table lists **33 countries** in Fizen's catalogue as of 2 November 2026: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.

That is most of the EU, plus the UK, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Turkey, so a trip such as London, Paris, Zurich and Rome works on one eSIM. Countries such as Serbia, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Ukraine are not on this plan's list. Fizen covers 150+ countries, so check the eSIM tab in the app for the plan that fits a route that leaves this list. Airalo's Europe page says its plan covers 41 countries and networks without listing them, so read its coverage list for your route the same way.

## Which network will my phone use in each country?

A regional eSIM roams on a local carrier in each country. These are the carriers named in Fizen's catalogue on 2 November 2026 for the biggest tourist destinations:

| Country                        | Carrier on the Fizen plan |
| ------------------------------ | ------------------------- |
| Germany, Spain, Czech Republic | Vodafone                  |
| France                         | Bouygues                  |
| Italy                          | Iliad                     |
| United Kingdom                 | EE                        |
| Netherlands                    | KPN                       |
| Switzerland                    | Swisscom                  |
| Portugal                       | NOS                       |
| Greece                         | NOVA                      |
| Poland                         | Plus                      |
| Turkey                         | Turk Telekom              |

Fixed-data plans slow to 384 kbps when the data runs out instead of cutting off. The unlimited plan states a **10 Mbps ceiling**, which carries maps, messaging and video calls. Hotspot rules are set per plan, so open the plan's Package details before you buy if you tether a laptop. On Airalo, check the plan page the same way.

## When should I pick Airalo for Europe?

- **Airalo:** the biggest catalogue, a polished app, and its own rewards. Airalo's Airmoney credit pays cashback from 5% to 10% depending on your loyalty level (Airalo loyalty page, 2 November 2026), and it runs a refer-and-earn scheme too.
- **Your route leaves the 33:** if the trip includes a country outside the list above, Airalo's longer list may fit, or look for a country plan in the Fizen app.
- **A short 1 GB trip:** Airalo's smallest plan can be the cheaper buy for a weekend city break.
- **Fizen:** wins on the data plans in the table for a new user, takes USDT, and puts a real person on the other end of support if an eSIM fails.

## What should I do before I fly?

Install the eSIM on home Wi-Fi before you fly, switch the eSIM line on and set it as your data line once you land, and turn data roaming on for that line. The phone must support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked. An eSIM is data-only, so keep your home SIM for calls and bank texts. Most Fizen eSIMs cannot be topped up, so size the plan for the whole trip: more data means a new eSIM. Changed plans? An unused, not-yet-installed eSIM can usually be taken back; eligibility depends on the plan, so check Package details or ask chat. One Europe-specific habit: do not switch to a local Wi-Fi-only mindset at a border. The same eSIM keeps working, so leave it on.
