TOKEN2049 Singapore: Your Meetings Move on Telegram While You Queue for a SIM
The first hour after landing is when the week gets organised, and it happens on Telegram. Buy the data before you fly: which tab the Singapore plan hides under, and what each screen asks for.
Quick answer: Buy it at fizen.io/esim before you fly, under the Regional tab: Singapore sits in the South-Eastern Asia plan and roams on StarHub 5G. Conference week fits 10 GB for 7 days, US$23.07 on the web store on 24 September 2026.
Key takeaways
- Search Singapore under Local and the store says Not listed. It is covered by the South-Eastern Asia regional plan, 18 countries.
- Dated web prices, 24 September 2026: 5 GB for 7 days US$16.38, 10 GB for 7 days US$23.07, 20 GB for 15 days US$38.14.
- Budget 1 to 1.5 GB a day. Conference days are heavier than holiday days, and a fixed plan cannot be topped up.
- Flying on after Singapore? Japan, Thailand, Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines and Indonesia all have unlimited plans. Singapore does not.
TOKEN2049 runs on 7 and 8 October 2026 at Marina Bay Sands. Getting online before you land takes four screens and a card.
The three screens
- Open fizen.io/esim, switch from Local to Regional, search Asia. Searching Singapore under Local returns "Not listed".
- Pick South-Eastern Asia, then the size. Show all 10 options opens everything from 1 GB for 3 days to 50 GB for 30 days.
- Enter the email the eSIM goes to, pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay through Stripe, press Check out now.
Install the eSIM at home on Wi-Fi from the emailed link, then leave the line off until you land at Changi.
Which size for conference week?
| Your week | Plan | Price, 24 Sep 2026 | Per GB |
|---|---|---|---|
| Two days at the venue | 5 GB, 7 days | US$16.38 | US$3.28 |
| Conference plus side events | 10 GB, 7 days | US$23.07 | US$2.31 |
| Two weeks around the region | 20 GB, 15 days | US$38.14 | US$1.91 |
Maps between venues, a ride app, Telegram and X open all day, a couple of video calls. When a fixed plan runs out it drops to 128 kbps, which carries messages and little else, so size up rather than down.
Going on to Japan, Thailand or Korea after?
Singapore has no unlimited plan. The countries most TOKEN2049 attendees fly to next do, and for a week of heavy use they remove the sizing question entirely.
| Next stop | Network | Unlimited, 7 days | Speed ceiling |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thailand | TrueMove H | US$21.95 | up to 10 Mbps |
| Japan | KDDI | US$27.50 | up to 10 Mbps |
| Indonesia | Indosat | US$27.31 | no stated cap |
| Philippines | Globe | US$28.09 | no stated cap |
| South Korea | LG U+ | US$29.32 | no stated cap |
| Taiwan | Taiwan Mobile | US$30.17 | no stated cap |
Prices checked on 24 September 2026. Unlimited means no volume limit, not unlimited speed: where a ceiling is stated, that is the top speed you get.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a Singapore-only plan?
Not in the country list on 24 September 2026. Singapore is covered by the South-Eastern Asia regional plan, which also covers Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia and Hong Kong.
Is there an unlimited plan for Singapore?
No. The South-Eastern Asia plan is fixed data only. Japan, Thailand, Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines and Indonesia do have unlimited plans.
Which network does it use in Singapore?
StarHub, on 5G. When a fixed plan's data is used the line slows to 128 kbps rather than stopping.
When should I install it?
At home on Wi-Fi before you fly. Switch the line on after landing, because enabling it inside the coverage area early can start the validity clock.
Do I need the app to buy it?
No. The web store checks out with an email address and a card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. The app is for paying in USDT and for the new-user credit.
Land in Singapore already online
South-Eastern Asia plans roaming on StarHub 5G in Singapore, bought on the web with card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Data only, installed before you fly, replaced 1-for-1 if a verified fault stops it working. Not offered to US Persons.
