I bought 14 300GB eSIMs for Europe and they all stopped working when they reached 35GB. I filed a complaint with AirHub and they told me they didn't actually provide 300GB and only offered 35GB. I asked for a refund and they never gave it to me. That company is a scam. Stay away if you don't want to be scammed.

AIRHUB is a SCAM. They are thieves who steal your money and give you eSIMs with less GB than they offer.

Mpused in Austria 🇦🇹

10gb sim used across Europe. Worked great for 10 days, then suddenly the speed just dropped to 40kbps despite still showing 5G.

Customer service non-existant. No response to live chat or useful info online so had to buy another sim from jetpac.

Speeds are 32Mb download and 3Mb upload. Impressive even if not stellar fast. Yes I would recommend Airalo. First attempt using an ESIM in Europe. Far more convenient given the limited option available when we arrived in Venice on route to Austria.

MTX Connect

tostused in Austria 🇦🇹

Perfect, reliable and flawless experience in all countries with good 4G speeds (15-25mbps)!
I used the „pay as you go“ plan!
Easy to choose and switch via the app.
Refill/prepay is also done via the app! The only minor catch, minimum refill amount is 10€ and it‘s 10€ steps from here (10,20,30...)
Overall really good experience!!

Frequently Asked Questions

How many travel eSIM brands (providers) are available for use in Austria, and how many prepaid data plans are there?

In Austria, there are 100 providers and 5, 700 offering a wide variety of options that makes it easy for travelers to find an eSIM that suits their needs.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Austria?

The following providers offer unlimited data plans for Austria: Firsty, Yoho Mobile, Airhub, Billion Connect, Roamify, MicroEsim, abesteSIM, Truely, and Yesim. All of these plans advertise unlimited data, but they do feature potential throttling; for example, Firsty applies a speed limit of 256 kbps, while Yoho Mobile, abesteSIM, and other plans limit speeds to 5 Mbps when throttled. Most plans run on 4 G or 5 G networks, with some also offering LTE support, so speeds can vary depending on coverage. The price range for these unlimited options spans from as low as $0.00 for Firsty’s single‑day plan up to about $22.48 for abesteSIM’s maximum‑validity bundle. Prices fluctuate by validity period, typically from one to fifteen days, so travelers can compare the cost per day to find a plan that fits their budget and duration.

What are the major mobile networks available for a travel eSIM in Austria?

A1 Telekom Austria: The largest mobile operator in Austria, offering extensive 2G, 3G, 4G/LTE, and 5G coverage.
Magenta Telekom: A subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom, providing comprehensive 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G services.
Drei (Three Austria): Owned by CK Hutchison Holdings, offering 2G, 3G, 4G/LTE, and expanding 5G services.

In addition to these major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), Austria has several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) that offer mobile services by leasing access from the major carriers. Notable local MVNOs include HoT Hofer Telekom and Spusu. However, most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of the primary MNOs rather than MVNOs.

Can I get a travel eSIM with a phone number and SMS for Austria?

Yes, travel eSIM plans that provide a phone number and SMS capability for Austria are available. Several providers issue roaming eSIMs that include voice and text messaging. The lowest‑priced options start around USD 4.00 for a 7‑day, 1 GB plan, while larger data bundles with the same functionality run around USD 35.00–USD 50.00 for a 30‑day period.

For users who want a local Austrian number, Airalo’s Galli+ plans offer a +43‑dialing code with inbound and outbound voice and SMS, so the number is local. All other plans use foreign dialing codes: GlobaleSIM supplies numbers with +1 (U.S./Canada) phone numbers, Amigo eSIM offers UK numbers with +44, and Roamify provides France numbers with +33. Each of these plans grants inbound and outbound voice and SMS, but the phone number does not match the Austrian country code.
