Pros and cons
Pros
- It is a network seller rather than an MVNO, so the plan comes straight from the network operator rather than a virtual provider
- Both SIM only and eSIM are available, which is what 99.6% of the mobile network plans on TariffCue also offer
- 5G is offered, matching 92.7% of mobile network listings
- Billing runs on both contract and prepaid bases, so the entry price is not locked to a long term
Cons
- Billing on contract ties the monthly spend to a minimum term, unlike yesss!, which also bills on a rolling basis
- Support runs on phone and email only, without the live chat and help centre options common on other listings
- There is no rolling billing on contract and prepaid, so a month to month payer would need to look at yesss! instead
Who it suits
- Households in Macedonia that want a plan from the network operator itself
- Anyone bringing an eSIM ready handset and wanting 5G on a local network
- Families comparing prepaid top ups with a contract monthly figure
Who should look elsewhere
- People wanting month to month billing on a rolling basis, where yesss! is a closer fit
- Travellers who would rather avoid a home network arrangement, which Lonestar Cell MTN serves in its own market
Core features
The line-up covers the three things most buyers check first. SIM only is available, so a handset you already own can be moved onto the network without a new device. 5G is offered, which matters on a local network as speeds and coverage in Macedonia are shaped by the operator's own spectrum. eSIM is available too, so a compatible phone can carry the plan without a physical card. Taken together, a SIM only tariff with 5G and eSIM covers a buyer who arrives with hardware in hand and wants the network's own speeds from day one.
Plans and prices
Prices are listed in Macedonian denar. Mobile plans start at MKD 1,399 a month, which is the figure shown for the entry postpaid option in the online shop. Unlimited data sits at MKD 1,399 a month, so a buyer who never runs out of data pays the same published figure for the open ended plan. Billing runs on contract and prepaid, meaning a contract commitment and prepaid top ups are both available. There is no rolling month to month option in the billing list, so anyone who wants the flexibility of a short term deal would weigh that against the entry price.
The company behind it
Makedonski Telekom is the legal entity behind the plans, registered as Makedonski Telekom AD Skopje and headquartered in North Macedonia. Selling as a network rather than a reseller means the contract, the tariff and the coverage all come from the same operator, which is the main difference from an MVNO selling service on someone else's network. Support runs on phone and email, so account help is handled by phone and email directly with the operator rather than through an intermediary.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a Makedonski Telekom mobile plan cost?+
Mobile plans start at MKD 1,399 a month. That is the entry figure published for the postpaid range in the online shop, billed in Macedonian denar. Plans are offered on contract and prepaid bases, so the monthly figure suits either a committed or a top up arrangement.
What does unlimited data cost on Makedonski Telekom?+
Unlimited data is listed at MKD 1,399 a month. A buyer who uses more data than any capped plan would allow keeps that same monthly figure, with no separate tier needed. Pricing is set in Macedonian denar, so costs sit in local currency rather than needing a conversion.
Does Makedonski Telekom offer SIM only plans?+
SIM only is available, so the plan can sit on a handset you already own. A SIM only tariff means no device bundle is attached to the monthly spend. On TariffCue, 99.6% of mobile network listings also offer a SIM only option.
Can I get an eSIM from Makedonski Telekom?+
eSIM is available, so a compatible handset can take the plan without a physical card. That suits a buyer who switches device often or travels within the region and wants to avoid a card swap. ESIM is offered on 100% of the mobile network plans listed on TariffCue.
Does Makedonski Telekom offer 5G?+
5G is offered on the network. That matters because the plan comes from the network operator itself, so the radio access and the tariff sit with the same operator. Most mobile network listings on TariffCue, 92.7% of them, also carry 5G.
Is Makedonski Telekom a network or an MVNO?+
It is a network seller, which means the tariff, the coverage and the contract all come from the operator that runs the radio network. On TariffCue, networks account for 100% of mobile network plans. Buying direct can suit a buyer who wants the network's own speeds.
How can I get help from Makedonski Telekom?+
Support runs on phone and email, so account help is handled by phone and email with the operator directly. There is no live chat or self service help centre listed among the support channels, which some buyers prefer. The operator is reachable without going through an intermediary reseller.
Can I buy a Makedonski Telekom plan on a rolling basis?+
Billing runs on contract and prepaid, so the options are a contract commitment or prepaid top ups. A rolling month to month basis is not among the billing types listed. A buyer who wants short term flexibility may prefer yesss!, which bills on a rolling basis as well as contract and prepaid.
