Our take

Airalo is an online store for purchasing eSIMS for over 200 different countries and regions, to enable people to stay connected wherever they are in the world. Users need only download the Airalo app to gain access to packages for any of its listed destinations, installing and activating the eSIM on their mobile device for instant access to phone service without hefty roaming fees.

Around since 2019, Airalo has already been used by over 5 million people worldwide. Its hefty injection of funding from 2023 is accelerating the company's growth and enhancing its global team. Funds will also support the launch of "Airalo Partners", a connectivity solution for businesses and organizations.
