Hotspot limits

• Data you share through a hotspot comes out of your eSIM's data balance, the same as data used on your device. Saily's fair use policy applies to hotspot use.
• Sharing a connection is not the same as sharing a plan. A hotspot lets nearby devices use your phone's internet connection while your eSIM stays on your device. If you want to share an eSIM plan with someone else, check our official guide to the Saily Family Plan to see if it suits your needs.
