Nomad, Saily and Yesim plans are in the table
Nomad has a 3 GB plan for 30 days at €5.26 on Avea and a 1 GB plan for 7 days at €3.51 on Avea. Yesim has a 5 GB plan for 30 days at €9.00 and a 1 GB plan for 30 days at €2.00 on SwitchLess Networks. Yesim describes SwitchLess Networks as the strongest available network including 5G. Yesim's page warns that access may be limited in Turkey and says to buy and install before travel. Saily has a 1 GB plan for 7 days at $3.99, and its network is not stated.
The prices are shown in the currency used on each provider's page. Euro and dollar prices are not converted, so a euro price and a dollar price should be read as separate figures.
Nomad's 3 GB plan and Yesim's 5 GB plan both last 30 days, while Nomad's and Saily's 1 GB plans last 7 days.
Price per GB differs by currency and plan length
Among the plans priced in EUR, Nomad's 3 GB plan has the lowest price per GB at €1.75. Yesim's 5 GB plan is €1.80 per GB, and its 1 GB plan is €2.00 per GB. Nomad's 1 GB plan for 7 days is €3.51 per GB. Saily's 1 GB plan is the only plan shown in USD, at $3.99 per GB, so it has no dollar-priced plan to be compared with.
Price per GB compares plans of different lengths only roughly. A 30 day plan and a 7 day plan differ in both data and days, so the per-GB figures do not describe the same period of service.
The phone must support eSIM and be unlocked
An eSIM is installed by scanning a QR code or entering a code from the provider. The phone must support eSIM and be unlocked from its carrier for the plan to work. Many travel eSIM plans carry data only, so a person who needs calls or text messages should check whether the plan includes a phone number before buying.
Airalo and Holafly prices are omitted under their terms
Airalo and Holafly also sell plans for Turkey. Their terms do not allow this site to republish their prices, so they are not in the table. Check their own sites for current prices.
