Background
Who is behind Saily?
Saily is a Nord Security product, from the same company as NordVPN. That matters mostly for credibility: this is an established security business rather than a startup reselling data.
It launched as a travel eSIM aimed at the same audience Nord already serves — people who care about what happens to their traffic on unfamiliar networks.
Performance
Speed and coverage
Saily covers 200+ destinations on 3G/4G/5G partner networks, with 5G in most developed markets. Real-world speeds are comparable to the other large providers in the same cities.
Plan sizes are unusually flexible, including small starter plans for short trips and larger buckets for longer stays.
Experience
App and built-in security
The app is the strongest part of the product: clean, fast, and the same design language as Nord's other apps. Installation is a two-tap affair on modern iPhones.
Extras include ad and tracker blocking, a web-protection layer against malicious sites, and a virtual-location option. None of it replaces a full VPN subscription, but it covers the basics for a trip.
Reputation
Support and user sentiment
Trustpilot sits around 4.2 — solid, mid-pack. Positive reviews highlight the app and the security bundle; support is 24/7 through chat.
The recurring complaint is price: for pure gigabytes, cheaper providers exist. Saily's pitch is that you are not buying pure gigabytes.
