Our verdict on each
MasMovil
MasMovil is a Spanish network selling its own SIM only lines with no minimum term, which suits readers who want a short commitment and a low entry price of €4.90. The trade-off is a narrow feature list: data does not roll over and calls over wifi are out.
Meow Mobile
Meow Mobile suits US households that want a prepaid, rolling SIM only line on AT&T and can plan around a price that rises after the introductory stretch. The entry point is low at $10 a month, and next generation mobile data, an eSIM, wifi calling and hotspot sharing all come as standard.

Pros and cons
MasMovil
Pros
- Entry price of €4.90 sits below the site median of €9.30, and it ranks 87 of 258 brands on that measure.
- Plan terms run 1 month, so there is nothing to serve out before you leave.
- Sim only tariffs are available, and eSIM is offered, so you can bring a light line without a handset.
Cons
- Data rollover is not available, so unused data is lost at the end of each cycle.
- Lonestar Cell MTN lists an entry price of $0.20, lower than €4.90, so the cheapest way in sits with that brand instead.
- Roaming in the EU runs on fair use terms rather than being included outright.
Meow Mobile
Pros
- Entry pricing is easy to start with: the capped data plan starts at $10 a month and the unlimited plan opens at $15.
- A credit check is not required, so a line can be opened without a credit history being put forward.
- Billing is prepaid and rolling, so there is no long fixed term to serve out and nothing to negotiate on leaving.
Cons
- The renewal step is the catch: Initial $15/mo for 3 months then $30/mo, so the opening unlimited figure is not the rate you keep.
- It serves a single market, US, and roaming is paid, so travel costs sit on top of the monthly bill.
- Support runs on email and chat only, so there is no phone line for anyone who wants to talk a problem through.
Who each suits
MasMovil
Who it suits
- Readers in the market listed as ES who want a single-market setup.
- People who want a SIM only line and a term of 1 month with no long commitment.
- Anyone who needs hotspot sharing and 5G on a budget line.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who relies on rolling monthly billing, since yesss lists contract, rolling and prepaid options.
- Readers who call often from indoors on weak signal, since wifi calling is not supported.
- People who want unused data to move into the next cycle, since data rollover is not available.
Meow Mobile
Who it suits
- Households in the US that want a prepaid, rolling SIM only line on AT&T without a long contract.
- People who rarely leave the country and stream or hotspot often, since roaming is paid and unmetered data opens at $15.
- Anyone adding a spare line for a child, a partner or a second phone, since a credit check is not required and hotspot sharing is included.
Who should look elsewhere
- GETESA, which sells as a network (network), for readers who want the host network itself rather than a virtual network operator.
- yesss! and Lonestar Cell MTN, both sold as networks (network, network), for anyone who treats buying direct from the network as a condition rather than a preference.

Questions about each
MasMovil
How much does a MasMovil line cost to start?+
Lines start at €4.90, which is below the site median entry price of €9.30. Across the site, €6.99 is the typical starting figure for this kind of deal, and €6.99 is the typical figure among mobile networks.
Do I have to sign a long contract?+
Plan terms run 1 month, so there is no long minimum to serve. That is a good match for anyone who expects their data use or income to change and wants to leave without a large exit bill.
Meow Mobile
What does Meow Mobile cost to start, and what happens to the price later?+
The capped data plan starts at $10 a month and the unlimited plan opens at $15. The opening unlimited rate is introductory, because Initial $15/mo for 3 months then $30/mo. Budget from the ongoing rate rather than the headline figure, since that step is what most of the monthly bill depends on.
Is Meow Mobile a network or a virtual operator?+
Meow Mobile is a virtual network operator, so the coverage comes from AT&T while the plans, pricing and support are its own. That split is the usual reason a plan here can sit below what the network charges. Readers who prefer to buy from the network itself have GETESA and yesss! listed alongside, both of which sell as networks.
