A Silent.link alternative for people who want Monero and lower data rates
Silent.link made the anonymous eSIM a real product category, and it is still the right choice if you need a phone number. If what you actually need is mobile data, paid privately, without watching a bundle expire, MoneroSim is built for exactly that job. See the full provider comparison for the wider market.
Where the two services overlap
Both sell eSIM profiles with no account, no email and no identity document. Both work in most of the world on partner networks, and both let you install the profile from a QR code in a couple of minutes.
Both also share the same honest limit: a roaming data profile keeps your name out of the purchase, but the network still sees the device while it is connected. Read what carriers can see for the detail.
Where MoneroSim is different
Payment is the first difference. Silent.link is priced around Bitcoin and Lightning. MoneroSim takes Monero first, with Bitcoin, Lightning, USDT and card as options, so your payment does not have to sit on a public ledger. See why Monero matters here.
The second is how you pay for data. MoneroSim holds a balance and meters it at a published per country rate. Nothing expires, so leftover credit from one trip is still there for the next.
- Monero accepted as the default payment
- Per gigabyte rates instead of fixed packages
- Balance never expires
- Hotspot included at the same rate
- Tor mirror available for checkout
When Silent.link is still the better pick
If you need an inbound phone number to receive calls or SMS codes, choose Silent.link. MoneroSim is data only and does not issue numbers. If you already hold Lightning and only need a single short trip, the difference in cost may not matter to you either.
