The world's largest island and 56,000 people
Greenland is 2.16 million km² of ice and rock, an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, with about 56,000 residents living in coastal settlements. There is no road network connecting the towns — you fly between Nuuk, Ilulissat, Qaqortoq, and Tasiilaq, or you sail. The interior is the ice sheet, which has no permanent residents and no coverage. The connectivity question is shaped by that geography: signal where the people live, silence everywhere else.
Anyone selling you "seamless coverage from Disko Bay to the east coast" is selling you a myth. We're not.
How is Roamzy's price calculated?
Roamzy charges $9.32 per gigabyte in Greenland, billed in real time at $0.0091 per megabyte. No subscription, no expiry, no minimum bundle. One per-MB rate across 193 countries is the shape of the invoice, not a marketing line.
A typical visitor uses 0.4–0.8 GB per day: maps in Nuuk and Ilulissat, the airline app for Air Greenland's small-plane schedules, the camera on a Greenlandic museum sign, video calls home from the Hotel Arctic. Less when you're on a boat or hiking — there's nothing to feed it. Call it 0.5 GB/day:
| Trip length | Roamzy ($9.32/GB) | Tourist roaming pass | Local SIM at GOH/JAV |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 days (1.5 GB) | $11.52 | $25–60 | $15–30 + ID, limited windows |
| 1 week (3.5 GB) | $26.88 | $50–110 | $20–40 + cap |
| 2 weeks (7 GB) | $53.76 | $100–200 | $25–50 + cap |
Competitor prices in columns 3 and 4 are 2025 ranges based on typical offerings; exact figures depend on your home carrier and the airport store you visit. Roamzy's rate in column 2 is our actual published rate from the pricing page.
A SIM at Nuuk's airport is sold but the kiosk hours rarely match a small-plane schedule, and on a multi-stop itinerary you'd be at three airports before the SIM started saving you anything. The eSIM is already on the Greenlandic network when you land.
Where is Roamzy reliable, and where isn't it?
Plain map of the country for a traveler:
- Nuuk — 4G/LTE at 95%+, the densest signal in the country
- Ilulissat (Disko Bay, the icefjord) — solid LTE in town, weaker at the icefjord viewpoints, near-zero on a boat trip out to the icebergs
- Qaqortoq, Sisimiut, Aasiaat — 4G in the populated coastal centres
- Tasiilaq and the east coast settlements — 4G in town, gaps in the fjords
- Kangerlussuaq — LTE around the airport and the road to the ice sheet's edge; the ice sheet itself is silent
- Most boat trips, dog-sledding routes, and remote hiking — no signal, plan for it
- Air Greenland flights — silent at altitude, signal returns on descent
How do I install my Roamzy eSIM?

Supported stablecoins, networks, and common iPhone/Android setup errors are in the FAQ.
What are Roamzy's honest limitations?
The most useful thing we can tell you about connectivity in Greenland is where it won't be. That's geography and population density, not a product flaw. We sell access to the same networks the locals use; we don't paint the country green from coast to coast.
What we don't have, and never built in: a welcome promo on the first top-up that flips on the second, a fine-print throttle, an auto-renewal subscription you'd discover months after you flew home. It's not a marketing gimmick — it's an engineering decision born from indifference to gimmicks. You can't make a tariff cheaper than no fine-print and no expiry — so we don't.
What if my trip continues to other countries?
Greenland connects via Iceland or Denmark for most travelers:
- Iceland — Reykjavík is the most common gateway, the eSIM hands over at the gate
- Faroe Islands — common North Atlantic pairing
- Canada — for the rarer eastern Arctic continuation
