Big news: all holiday.com eSIM plans are shifting from limited data packs to unlimited data, and that means your ExpressVPN eSIM coupon just got better!

Starting August 20, 2025, every holiday.com plan you activate with an ExpressVPN coupon will include unlimited data at no extra cost, replacing the previous data allowance and giving you the freedom to explore, stream, and share without limits wherever your trip takes you.

Here’s what’s changing and what you need to know.

About the upgrade

holiday.com is replacing the current data packs with unlimited data plans across more than 200 supported destinations. The new offering will roll out on August 20, 2025 and will initially only be available on the new holiday.com iPhone app.

If you already have an active holiday.com coupon, you’ll be able to redeem it for 1, 3, or 5 days of unlimited data (matching your original 1GB, 3GB, or 5GB coupon) after the launch.

As of August 20, 2025, all unredeemed data-based eSIM coupons will automatically switch to the new unlimited plans.

What’s changing between ExpressVPN and holiday.com?

Holiday.com was originally launched by the team behind ExpressVPN to help travelers stay connected. Now, the two services are moving forward as independent brands under the Kape umbrella, each focusing on its own mission:

• ExpressVPN remains dedicated to delivering world-class privacy and security, helping you stay safe, private, and in control of your online experience wherever you are.
• Holiday.com is focused on making travel connectivity seamless and effortless.

Existing holiday.com eSIM coupons from ExpressVPN subscriptions are still redeemable on holiday.com.

Rolling out to iPhone users first

The new holiday.com app is currently available for iPhone only, and your device needs to meet two simple requirements:

• It must be eSIM-compatible
• It must be carrier-unlocked

If you meet those requirements, you’re all set to install the app and activate your unlimited plan.

What about Android users?

As of August 20, 2025, Android users will be temporarily unable to use their coupons until broader support rolls out in Q4 2025.

If you’re on Android and already have a holiday.com coupon from an ExpressVPN subscription, you can contact their support team for assistance anytime.

A closer look at the new holiday.com eSIM app

The holiday.com app has been totally redesigned, from the plans to the interface, to make staying connected while you travel easier than ever. Here’s what you can expect:

• Unlimited data with no caps or slowdowns
• One eSIM you install once for all destinations, and top up as you go
• Coverage in over 200 destinations worldwide
• Quick setup that gets you online in a couple of minutes
• Reliable speeds from top-tier network providers
• A brand new referral program so you and your friends can accumulate credit when you invite them to use the app

The future of travel is unlimited

This shift to unlimited data is a big step in redefining travel connectivity, and holiday.com is leading the way. No more worrying about data limits. No more mid-trip top-ups. Just fast, uninterrupted internet wherever you go.

Final thoughts

Holiday.com’s pivot to unlimited eSIM data is more than a product tweak—it reflects a broader industry shift where connectivity and security are converging, but under different brand philosophies. While NordVPN has explored travel bundles with meshnet and dedicated IP services, it hasn’t moved into eSIM or telecom infrastructure. IPVanish, meanwhile, has focused on competitive VPN pricing and partnerships with cloud storage providers, not on travel connectivity. Holiday.com, spun out of the ExpressVPN ecosystem, is effectively filling the gap these privacy players left open: turning mobility into a seamless, borderless experience backed by unlimited data.

Industry analysts point to a steady rise in global eSIM adoption—forecast to reach over 7 billion eSIM-enabled devices by 2030 (GSMA Intelligence, 2024). At the same time, Statista (2025) reports that nearly 65% of international travelers rank “reliable unlimited internet” as their top travel tech priority, ahead of power banks and translation apps. By merging VPN-backed credibility with a travel-first connectivity strategy, Holiday.com positions itself at the intersection of these two accelerating trends.

The real takeaway: NordVPN and IPVanish are doubling down on cybersecurity, but Holiday.com is betting that in the travel tech race, unlimited, frictionless connectivity will prove just as essential as privacy.
