The short answer
Six travel eSIMs sell a plan for the United States, Canada and Mexico together. I compared the prices of all six regional plans on the same day, for a long weekend, two weeks on the road and a month, and I read the fine print on unlimited. Here is where each one wins.
Unlimited data at full speed in 3 countries, one eSIM: 7 days at $19.99, 2 weeks at $37.99 or 30 days at $55.99, nothing renews. Airalo asks $37 for a week, $60.50 for 15 days and $97.50 for the month, Holafly $40.90, $62.90 and $99.90.
10 GB for 30 days at $32 and 20 GB at $35, across all three countries, on AT&T and Verizon in the US.
10 GB for 7 days at $16. Its 7 days of unlimited is $30 with 5 GB a day at full speed, then 2 Mbps, $10.01 more than a week on Ringo Light, and its North America plan leaves out Mexico.
3 days of unlimited at $18.50, days not gigabytes, no app. Sharing limited to 1 GB a day.
Prices read on 11 November 2026: Airalo, Holafly, Saily, Nomad, Ubigi on their own sites or listings, Ringo Light from its catalogue. All in US dollars unless stated. Treat every number as a snapshot.

The prices, charted
US dollars, 11 November 2026. Ubigi's 7 days covers only the US and Canada, 5 GB a day at full speed, then 2 Mbps. Nomad sells no 7-day plan; its 10 days is $45. Saily sells no unlimited plan for the region.
US dollars, 11 November 2026. Nomad's longest unlimited plan is 10 days. Ubigi's unlimited is 7 days and covers only the US and Canada. Saily sells no unlimited plan for the region.
The 30-day plan at each brand that sells one. Ringo Light is unlimited data at full speed. Nomad, Ubigi and Saily sell no month of unlimited for the region.
Holafly sells no buckets. Ringo Light sells no bucket either: its 2 weeks is unlimited and lasts 2 weeks, not 30 days. Ubigi's 30-day 10 GB is on its 25-country Americas plan.

That is the full Ringo service: one plan that works everywhere, with your own number included.
It is a separate product from Ringo Light and it is still being built, so it is not on sale yet. Join the waitlist to hear when it opens.
What to do in North America, and what your phone needs for it
Eight places most first trips across the United States, Canada and Mexico include, from New York to Tulum, with the one thing your data does for you at each. The cities have good 4G and 5G on every network; the canyons and mountain lakes do not, so plan those days offline.
If you want unlimited for a week, two weeks or a month: Ringo Light
I read a trip across North America as rarely short: a coast to coast loop, a road trip through the national parks, a week in New York and a week in Mexico. For about two weeks of unlimited across the three countries, Airalo asks $60.50 and Holafly $62.90 for 15 days. Nomad stops at 10 days for $45, Ubigi at 7 days for $30 without Mexico, and Saily sells no unlimited plan for the region. For a month, Airalo asks $97.50 and Holafly $99.90. Ringo Light charges $19.99 for 7 days, $37.99 for 2 weeks and $55.99 for 30 days, nothing renews.
I would read what unlimited means before you pick. Airalo gives 3 GB a day at full speed, then 1 Mbps. Nomad gives 2 GB a day, then 1 Mbps. Ubigi gives 5 GB a day, then 2 Mbps. Holafly states no daily cap for your own phone and limits sharing to 1 GB a day. Ringo Light is unlimited data at full speed for the whole trip.
For a week, Ringo Light's 7 days of unlimited at $19.99 costs less than any rival's: Ubigi asks $30 for the US and Canada only, Airalo $37 and Holafly $40.90. Only the 3-day trip goes elsewhere, since Ringo Light sells no 3-day plan and Airalo and Holafly sell 3 days of unlimited at $18.50. Its 2 weeks at $37.99 also costs less than a 7-day plan at Holafly ($40.90), and only $0.99 more than Airalo's ($37).
Three countries, one eSIM: what to check
The United States has three national networks: AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon. Many travel eSIMs ride T-Mobile, which is strong in the cities; Nomad names AT&T and Verizon. Canada's big three are Bell, Rogers and Telus, and Mexico's widest network is Telcel. In all three countries the cities and main highways are well covered, and the gaps are in the wild places: stretches of road between national parks in the American West, the mountain passes of the Canadian Rockies, and parts of the canyons themselves. I would download offline maps before those days, whatever eSIM you buy.
I would check that your plan covers every country on your route. Ubigi's North America plan is the US and Canada only; for Mexico it sells a separate 25-country Americas plan. Airalo, Holafly, Saily, Nomad and Ringo Light cover all three on one eSIM, so crossing at Niagara or flying on to Cancun needs no new plan.
If you want a data bucket: Nomad
- Nomad, $32 for 10 GB. The cheapest 10 GB for 30 days, and 20 GB for only $35, across all three countries.
- Airalo, $37 for 10 GB. Its Americanmex plan, 20 GB for $49 over 30 days.
- Saily, $43.99 for 10 GB. No 20 GB on its regional listing. Its listing is dated 6 October; I could not load saily.com.
- Ubigi, $16 for 10 GB over 7 days. US and Canada only. With Mexico, its Americas plan asks $48 for 10 GB over 30 days.
- ✓Ringo Light, no buckets. Ringo Light's 2 weeks is unlimited for $37.99 and its 30 days unlimited for $55.99. For a fixed amount of data, Nomad is cheaper, and for a month that fits in 20 GB, Nomad at $35 is far cheaper than Ringo Light's $55.99. Buy Ringo Light for unlimited, not for a bucket. I would rather you read that here than at checkout.
What Ringo Light is
Ringo Light is Ringo's own data eSIM, and I write for Ringo, so weigh that. It is sold to fund the full Ringo, one plan that works everywhere with your own number ported onto it. For North America it sells one eSIM for the United States, Canada and Mexico, and three trips, all unlimited data at full speed with no speed cap: 7 days at $19.99, 2 weeks at $37.99 and 30 days at $55.99. Nothing renews. The eSIM arrives by email in seconds and installs in one scan, no app.
The card to buy it is further up this page, just after the side-by-side table.
