Saily has moved into Numero eSIM's product. A US number that calls and texts, paired with data on one eSIM, is the same idea as the full eSIM, and at €0.99 a month the number is cheaper than any tier Numero eSIM sells. Two things limit it: it covers one country, the United States, and it sits inside the account system of a VPN company. Numero eSIM's case rests on coverage in 39 countries and on being bought directly.

Saily's site now sells a US phone number at €0.99 a month that calls and texts from inside the eSIM app, paired with a data plan. That is far cheaper than Numero eSIM's lowest number tier, and it is the same idea as the full eSIM. It covers one country, with identity verification required in the app after purchase.
Numero eSIM sells numbers in 39 countries against one, toll-free lines in eight, 19 calling plans, and the data, minutes and number bundle in 188 countries, all bought directly, with no VPN account in between.
Saily is the fastest-moving competitor in this set, and its prices are low: €0.99 for a US number, data from €3.49, and NordVPN's distribution behind it. For a traveller who wants US data and a US number and nothing else, Saily is the better-priced answer.
