1. Calling and texting to 85+ countries
This is included on every phone plan — unlimited and prepaid alike. From your line in the US, you call and text 85+ countries at no extra charge.
It is the feature most people actually want when they search for an international plan: reaching family abroad from home, without buying a calling card or a per-minute pack.
- Standard USA & World ($39.99/mo): calling and texting to 85+ countries included.
- Advanced USA & World ($49.99/mo): calling and texting to 85+ countries included.
- Premium USA & World ($59.99/mo): calling and texting to 85+ countries included.
- USA & World 90-Day Plan ($74.99/90 days): calling and texting to 85+ countries included.
- USA & World 6-Month Plan ($144.99/6 months): calling and texting to 85+ countries included.
- USA & World 12-Month Plan ($259.99/12 months): calling and texting to 85+ countries included.
2. Included world eSIM data
Separately, each plan includes a world lifetime eSIM data allowance you can use when you travel. It is data, not calling, and it runs on partner networks in the countries where it is offered — never on our US network.
- Standard USA & World: 5 GB world lifetime eSIM data included.
- Advanced USA & World: 10 GB world lifetime eSIM data included.
- Premium USA & World: 20 GB world lifetime eSIM data included.
- Prepaid plans: 5 GB world lifetime eSIM data included.
3. Roaming is its own thing
Roaming means your own line working on someone else's network abroad. Our coverage disclosure lists international roaming in 200+ countries with rates varying by plan, and our data agreement is explicit that domestic data plans do not include international roaming.
For data abroad, the intended path is a travel eSIM or the world eSIM allowance above rather than roaming charges — which is why the three need to be described separately instead of merged into one "international" claim.
Which one do you actually need?
Calling relatives overseas from the US: your plan already covers it, to 85+ countries.
Travelling and wanting maps, messaging and email on your phone: use the included world eSIM data, or add a destination travel eSIM.
Long trips with heavy data use, or a group sharing one connection: look at a dedicated travel eSIM or a Global Hotspot plan instead.

Which plans include free international calling?
All phone plans — every unlimited tier and every prepaid tier includes free calling and texting to 85+ countries.
Is there a list of the included countries?
We publish the count rather than a country-by-country list, because the list can change. Contact our team to confirm a specific country before you rely on it.
Does the included world eSIM data work everywhere?
It works in the countries where our partner offers coverage, on partner networks — not on our US network. Check the destination before travelling.
Is roaming included?
Domestic data plans do not include international roaming. Our coverage disclosure lists international roaming in 200+ countries with rates that vary by plan; for data abroad, use the included world eSIM allowance or a travel eSIM.
