Nomad eSIM Data Plans for Canada

Nomad does not offer a truly unlimited data plan for Canada.
The plans that include “unlimited” in their name actually cap data at 2 GB per day; once that limit is hit the speed is throttled, although the exact reduced speed is not detailed in the data. If a larger, more predictable data allowance is preferred, Nomad provides fixed‑data options such as the 20 GB plan for 30 days priced at $28.00 USD or the 50 GB plan for 30 days priced at $49.00 USD, both of which are available for use throughout Canada and may be more economical for heavy data consumers.

Nomad does not provide a Canadian eSIM plan that includes a phone number or SMS capability. Only data‑only plans are available for Canada. Travelers can still make and receive calls and send messages through VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage that operate over the data connection.

Nomad offers 10 single‑country plans that cover Canada alone and an additional 19 multi‑country plans that include Canada as part of a broader network of destinations. The plans range in price from about $5 to $170 and provide data allowances from 1 GB up to 50 GB. Some of the plans feature a daily data cap, wherein the data reset each day, while others provide a fixed data cap for the entire validity period. Tethering is allowed on all eligible plans.
