Travel eSIM provider BazTel, an Australian-founded company covering more than 160 countries, has launched $1-per-GB data plans aimed at the world's most popular travel destinations.
The plans cover key Asian markets including Japan, South Korea, China, Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore and Vietnam, running on 4G and 5G networks where available. Like most travel eSIMs, they can be bought and activated before departure, in transit, or on arrival — sidestepping the high international roaming charges that still catch out many travellers.
BazTel positions the offer at families, digital nomads, business travellers and first-time international visitors looking for an affordable, no-fuss way to stay connected abroad.
