50 GB	30 days	$28.01	$84.00	—	$69.00

A dash means no exact combination was recorded, not that a plan is unavailable. PikoeSIM may still have a same-data option with different validity.

Same data, longer validity

Seven rival offers had no exact match, so we paired each with a PikoeSIM plan carrying the same total data over more days. These are longer-validity alternatives, not identical packages.

Same total data · different validity · USD · 17 October 2026
Provider	Data	Rival plan	PikoeSIM alternative
Airalo	1 GB	3 days $7.00	7 days $1.41
Airalo	3 GB	3 days $8.00	30 days $3.29
Airalo	3 GB	7 days $9.00	30 days $3.29
Airalo	5 GB	7 days $14.00	30 days $5.21
Airalo	10 GB	7 days $18.00	30 days $9.01
Airalo	10 GB	15 days $20.00	30 days $9.01
Airalo	20 GB	15 days $34.00	30 days $15.48

We picked the lowest-priced PikoeSIM plan with matching data and enough extra days; at equal prices and equivalent recorded terms, the longer validity wins. All seven recorded candidates were cheaper than the unmatched rival offers.

Recorded plan counts

Recorded fixed-total packages: PikoeSIM 61, Airalo 12, Saily 5, Nomad 6. Breadth matters only if the allowance and validity you need are priced well, so the matching tables matter more than the counts.

Provider	Distinct data + validity options
PikoeSIM	61
Airalo	12

Nomad	6

Two buying recommendations

For 2 weeks (14 days), the 10 GB, 30-day plan at $9.01 undercuts the 20-day option at $11.26. Skip the 3 GB, 1 day plan at $9.38; one day costs more than the 30-day plan.
