eSIMDB Scraper

Pull live travel eSIM data plans from eSIMDB at scale — provider, data allowance, validity, headline and per-GB pricing, multi-currency rates, promo codes, 5G support, carrier networks, and country coverage for every plan in a destination's catalog. Compare 24 named providers across 37 destinations in a single run. Built for travel-tech and comparison sites, affiliate teams, and pricing analysts who need fresh eSIM plan data without manually checking dozens of provider sites one tab at a time.

Why This Scraper?

• 24 named providers, 37 destinations, one run — pick from Airalo, Nomad, Saily, Ubigi, GigSky, aloSIM, Yesim, Truphone and 16 more brands across 37 country catalogs, or pull every brand at once.
• Whole-catalog pulls — a single destination can return over 10,000 plans; one run captures the entire catalog instead of paging through provider sites by hand.
• Six-currency pricing on every plan — USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, AUD, and CAD prices alongside your chosen headline currency, plus a calculated pricePerGB for true cost comparisons.
• Promo codes and discounted prices captured automatically — active promo codes (e.g. "ESIMDB15") and the discounted price surface on each plan, so you never miss a deal worth surfacing to your audience.
• Carrier-level network detail — underlying carrier names (e.g. "KDDI (5G), Softbank (5G)"), a has5G flag, and 4G/5G network types per plan — detail most comparison feeds drop.
• Four scoped filters — minimum data (GB), maximum price (USD), minimum validity (days), and 5G-only, applied before you're billed so you only pay for the plans you actually want.
• Parsed numbers, not just strings — dataGB, validityDays, usdPrice, and pricePerGB come ready to sort and chart, with the raw display strings kept too for plans like "3GB/day + unlimited at 1Mbps".
• Unlimited and per-day plans kept intelligently — "unlimited" and per-day allowances survive a minData filter instead of being silently dropped because they have no fixed GB number.
• Hard billable cap with maxResults — set an exact ceiling on the plans returned and billed; results are trimmed to that number so a big catalog never surprises you.

Getting Started

Compare a Destination

The simplest run — every plan for one country:

{
    "countries": ["usa"],
    "maxResults": 100
}

One Brand, Two Destinations

{
    "countries": ["japan", "south-korea"],
    "providers": ["airalo"],
    "maxResults": 200
}

One Brand's Entire Global Catalog

Leave countries empty and pick a provider to sweep every destination for that brand:

{
    "providers": ["airalo"],
    "maxResults": 200
}

Filtered, Multi-Currency Search

5G-only plans with at least 5 GB, capped at $30, priced in euros:

{
    "countries": ["france", "spain", "italy"],
    "providers": ["airalo", "nomad", "saily"],
    "minData": 5,
    "maxPrice": 30,
    "minValidityDays": 7,
    "only5G": true,
    "currency": "EUR",
    "maxResults": 500
}

Input Reference

What to Scrape

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
countries	select[]	["United States"]	One or more destinations to compare plans for. Choose from 37 countries (United States, United Kingdom, Japan, France, and more). Leave empty and pick a provider below to pull that brand's full catalog across every destination; leave both empty and it defaults to the United States.
providers	select[]	[]	Limit results to specific brands — Airalo, Nomad, Saily, Ubigi, aloSIM, and 19 others. Leave empty to include every provider. Combine with countries to get one brand's plans for a destination, or use providers alone (no countries) to pull a brand's entire global catalog across all 37 destinations.

Filters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
minData	integer	0	Only include plans with at least this much data, in GB. 0 means no minimum. Unlimited and per-day plans are always kept.
maxPrice	integer	0	Only include plans priced at or below this amount in US dollars. 0 means no price cap.
minValidityDays	integer	0	Only include plans valid for at least this many days. 0 means no minimum.
only5G	boolean	false	When on, return only plans that support 5G networks.

Output Options

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
currency	select	US Dollar	Currency for the headline price of each result: US Dollar, Euro, British Pound, Japanese Yen, Australian Dollar, or Canadian Dollar. Every plan also carries prices in the other major currencies.

Limits

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
maxResults	integer	100	Hard cap on the total number of plans returned — also the maximum you can be billed for, since each plan is one result. Set to 0 for no limit. A single destination can hold over 10,000 plans, so start small to test before scaling up.

Tips for Best Results

• Start small — set maxResults to 100 on your first run to confirm the data fits your needs, then scale up. A single destination can hold over 10,000 plans.
• maxResults: 0 means unlimited — leaving it at 0 returns every matching plan and bills for each one, which can run into many thousands of results and take much longer, especially on a broad country selection or a providers-only run that sweeps all 37 destinations. Set a number first, then raise it deliberately.
• Pull a brand's whole global catalog — leave countries empty and pick one or more providers to sweep every destination for those brands; maxResults still caps the run, so start at a few hundred.
• Leave providers empty to pull a whole catalog — select only destinations and skip the providers field to capture every brand's plans, then filter locally however you like.
• Combine country and provider for the cheapest run — pairing a destination with a brand (e.g. Japan + Airalo) returns a tight, precise set instead of a full catalog.
• Keep per-day and unlimited plans — a minData filter never drops "unlimited" or per-day plans, since they have no fixed GB number; they pass through so you don't lose the best high-data options.
• Sort on pricePerGB, not headline price — the cheapest sticker price is rarely the best value; pricePerGB reveals which plans actually deliver more data per dollar.
• Use currency for display, usdPrice for math — the headline price follows your chosen currency, but usdPrice stays constant across every plan, making it the reliable key for sorting and ranking.
• Watch promoCode for affiliate value — plans with a live promo code and promoPrice are the ones worth featuring to a deal-seeking audience.

Pricing

From $2.00 per 1,000 results — among the most competitive rates for structured eSIM plan data. Bronze, Silver, and Gold subscribers pay progressively less; the table below shows total cost at each discount tier.

Results	No discount	Bronze	Silver	Gold
100	$0.24	$0.225	$0.21	$0.20
1,000	$2.40	$2.25	$2.10	$2.00

100,000	$240.00	$225.00	$210.00	$200.00

A "result" is one eSIM plan row in the output dataset. No compute or time-based charges — you pay per result, plus a small fixed per-run start fee.
