An honest look
How GoodbarsCOMPARES
There are dozens of Indonesia eSIMs to choose from, including well-known apps like Airalo and Nomad. Here’s an honest look at how Goodbars compares for a Bali or Indonesia trip specifically, including where it isn’t the cheapest or the most flexible option.
Three plans, real coverage
Goodbars is built around just three plans (10GB, 20GB and 50GB) so there’s no menu to compare before you buy. All three run on Telkomsel, Indonesia’s largest network, with real 5G in Kuta, Denpasar and Canggu and fast LTE across the rest of Bali and Indonesia, no ID, no contract and no kiosk required.
Where a wider menu helps
Airalo and Nomad both cover Indonesia too, with a wider menu of plan sizes and durations. That can be a genuine advantage if a compact three-plan lineup doesn’t fit your trip, for example a short weekend visit.
Goodbars vs Airalo vs Nomad
| Goodbars | Airalo (Indonesia eSIM) | Nomad (Indonesia eSIM) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Network | Telkomsel (Indonesia’s largest network) | “3” / Hutchison | Telkomsel / Smartfren |
| Entry price | 10GB / €13.99 / 30 days | From €4.50 (smaller, shorter plans available) | From €3.50 (1GB / 7 days) |
| Largest plan | 20GB / €19.99 / 30 days | Up to 30 days, €10-62.50 range | Up to unlimited / 10 days, €28.85 |
| Identity / setup | No ID, no contract, no kiosk | No ID (industry standard for eSIM) | No ID (industry standard) |
Pricing and coverage last checked July 2026. Competitor pricing and plans change over time and are not something Goodbars controls, so treat the Airalo and Nomad figures above as a snapshot rather than a live quote: check their own sites for current numbers.
Bottom line
Bottom line: if you want a simple, three-plan eSIM built specifically around a Bali or Indonesia trip on Telkomsel’s real coverage, Goodbars is built for that. If you need a shorter, cheaper entry plan or a broader menu of durations, Airalo or Nomad may fit your trip better, and that’s a fair trade-off to know about before you buy.
