Saily eSIM Data Plans for China

Saily’s plans that include “UNLIMITED” in the name provide a daily data allowance of 5 GB while active in China. After the 5 GB daily limit is reached the speed is throttled to 1 kbps, so the data is not truly unlimited. The plan’s validity is the number of days listed (for example, a 30‑day “China UNLIMITED” plan offers 5 GB each day).

If an unlimited data experience is required, Saily offers fixed‑data alternatives. Examples include a 20 GB plan valid for 30 days and a 25 GB plan valid for 60 days. These plans provide the same high‑speed data without daily caps, which can be more cost‑effective for heavy data users.

No, Saily does not provide a China eSIM that includes a phone number or SMS service. Saily’s China offers are data‑only plans, so no voice or text SMS capability is available. Travelers who need to make calls or send messages can rely on VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage, which work over the data connection.

Saily lists 11 single‑country data plans that cover China, and 22 multi‑country plans that include China as one of the destinations. The single‑country options range from roughly $4.49 to $159.99 and provide between 1 GB and 30 GB of data, giving travelers a flexible choice between pocket‑friendly day‑tours and long‑term stays. The multi‑country packages span a similar price range but offer a larger overall data allowance when the user travels across several borders, which can be useful for itineraries that pass through neighboring countries. In the plan types, fixed data cap plans provide a set amount of data for the entire validity period, while daily data cap plans limit the amount that can be used in a single day before throttling or a price increase.
