How one US company cut international mobile costs by 80%.
A real case study: $180,000 in annual roaming costs reduced to $36,000 with eSIM.
A large US-based professional services firm was quietly losing more than $180,000 per year on international mobile roaming for its employees. They send teams around the world every week to meet clients, audit operations, and run projects in Ireland, the UK, Brazil, Singapore, UAE, China, Japan, Australia, Switzerland and across Europe. On average, they book around 3,000 international trips per year, with each trip lasting 4–6 days.
This is their story and why it could be yours too.
The hidden problem: Roaming that just keeps adding up
Relying on day passes
Every traveler relied on their US mobile subscription while abroad. International usage was covered by a daily roaming pass from their carrier.
Fixed daily cost
The day pass cost around $12 per day, per line, regardless of how much data was actually used. A 5-day trip = $60 per traveler.
The bill shock risk
Whenever an employee forgot to activate the day pass or misconfigured their phone, pay-per-use roaming kicked in. One mistake = $10,500–$21,000.
The math gets ugly
3,000 trips × $60 per trip = $180,000 per year just to make phones work abroad. No budget predictability.
The switch: From daily roaming fees to smart eSIM packs
This company decided to pilot an eSIM-based solution for their most frequent destinations.
Instead of paying per day, they started assigning data bundles per trip, matched to actual business usage:
✓ 5 GB packs for lighter users (email, messaging, some calls)
✓ 10 GB packs for heavy users (Teams meetings, screen sharing, hotspotting for laptops)
✓ All assigned before departure – employees just scan a QR code
Typical eSIM pricing per destination:
The result: From $180,000 to ~$36,000 per year
