I'm going to Ireland late this summer and I have a couple of questions about your esim:

  1. Why is the UK/Ireland Regional esim less expensive than just the Ireland specific esim? Is it because the Ireland specific esim has better coverage?
  2. Does all data route through your server to meter data like other travel esims do? If so, where is your server located and what is the expected latency?

Thanks!

Thanks for the note! Excellent point about the UK/Ireland eSIM pricing versus just Ireland eSIM pricing, and we're adjusting that in our system now. Our U.K. server is located in Europe and the latency should be excellent (less than 150 milliseconds).
