Saily delivers a $1.90/GB rate on its 10GB plan, a documented no-log privacy policy backed by Nord Security (NordVPN's parent company), and an app rating of 4.7/5 on both stores from 95,000-plus combined reviews (May 2026). Founded in 2023 and headquartered in Lithuania, Saily covers 150 countries. At $12.49 for 5GB in Japan versus HelloRoam's $12.99, the plans are nearly identical in price on popular routes. Saily's 10GB plan at $18.99 ($1.90/GB) is $0.09/GB below HelloRoam's $1.99/GB at that tier.
The primary honest negative is coverage. Saily's 150 countries are 35 fewer than HelloRoam and 50 fewer than Airalo. Customer support routes to email with 24-48 hour response times, the slowest among the five providers tested. For travelers visiting Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Europe, or North America who prioritize data privacy, Saily delivers on every claim.

Is it for you?
Buy if
- You want a verified no-log privacy policy backed by Nord Security's infrastructure, not just a marketing claim
- You already use NordVPN and can access bundle pricing that makes both products cheaper
- You are visiting Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Europe, or North America where Saily's premium network partners give it a speed advantage
Skip if
- You are visiting a destination outside Saily's 150-country catalog: check coverage first, as 50 countries available on Airalo are missing from Saily
- You need live chat support that resolves issues in minutes during a trip (HelloRoam and Holafly both respond faster)
- You need unlimited data: both Holafly and HelloRoam offer unlimited plans (Holafly in 160 countries, HelloRoam in 185 countries)
