Pros and cons
Pros
- Every plan runs on a 1-month contract, so a month-to-month rolling switch is practical
- Sim only tariffs start at €12
- EU roaming is included, with 5G and WiFi calling on the same plans
- A multi line discount applies to families putting several lines on one account
- Support reaches you through email, phone and help centre
Cons
- Entry at €12 is higher than the €9.30 median across listed brands
- The unlimited plan at €40 sits above the €23.19 median for unlimited pricing
- As an MVNO on Vodafone, coverage follows the host network rather than a network of its own
- Billing runs on contract and rolling terms, so payment and renewal are tied to the contract setup rather than a prepaid top-up
Who it suits
- Readers in Germany who want a rolling plan they can cancel month to month
- Families wanting several lines with a multi line discount on the same account
- Travellers who want EU roaming already included in the tariff
Who should look elsewhere
- Readers chasing the lowest entry price, who would do better with a cheaper listing on this page
- People who want prepaid billing rather than contract and rolling terms
- Those who need a network of its own instead of an MVNO riding on Vodafone
What it does well
WEtell keeps the feature set simple and complete for everyday use. Sim only tariffs mean you bring your own handset and pay for the network, not a device bundle. 5G is available, so newer phones get the faster network where it is live. An eSIM is available for people who would rather activate a plan digitally than wait for a card in the post, and WiFi calling is supported, which helps at home or in places with weak mobile signal. Roaming is included, which is the part that trips up many cheap plans: you can use your allowance across the EU without adding a travel bolt-on. The host network is Vodafone, so coverage and speed follow that network rather than a network of the brand's own. If more than one person in the household needs a line, a multi line discount applies, which is where the cost per line comes down.
Where it sits among rivals
Priced on entry, WEtell is not a budget leader. It ranks 186 of 258 brands on price from, so a large share of the plans here start cheaper. It is better known for what it bundles than for the headline number. On unlimited data the picture improves but does not change the basic ranking. WEtell sits at 149 of 173 brands on unlimited price. The gap to the top of that list is where the trade-off sits: you pay a mid-range price and get included EU roaming, month-to-month terms and a multi line discount in return, which the cheapest unlimited plans often leave out. Treat it as the sensible middle of the market rather than the cheapest option on either measure.
Pricing
The entry point is €12, which is the Nanofunk plan. The Mittelwelle plan sits above it and carries a much larger data allowance, while Ueberschall is the unlimited option at €40. What matters for cost is that none of these plans is tied to a long fixed term. Contract lengths run 1 month, and billing is on contract and rolling terms. That means the monthly figure you read is the figure you pay, with no introductory discount to count down and no locked-in term that forces you to keep paying after the price changes elsewhere. For a household weighing several lines, the multi line discount applies on top of these monthly prices, which is where the per-line cost falls.
Who runs it
WEtell is run by WEtell GmbH, based in Germany. It was founded in 2019, so it is an established operator rather than a recent entry, and it sells as an MVNO on the Vodafone network. Customer service runs over email, phone and help centre, so you can reach a person by email or phone, or work through the help centre in your own time. That mix suits people who want a quick answer on a billing question and a written answer they can keep for a technical problem.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the cheapest WEtell plan cost?+
Entry is €12 for the Nanofunk SIM only plan. That is the starting figure, and the Mittelwelle and Ueberschall plans sit above it. All three run on 1-month contracts, so nothing is locked in for a longer term.
What does the unlimited data plan cost?+
The Ueberschall unlimited plan costs €40 a month. It is the highest of the three reference plans and above the €23.19 median for unlimited pricing across brands listed here. EU roaming is included on that plan.
Do I have to sign a long contract?+
No. Plan contract lengths run 1 month, so a month-to-month rolling arrangement is the normal setup rather than an exception. Billing runs on contract and rolling terms, which keeps the monthly figure steady without a long fixed term.
Which network does WEtell run on?+
WEtell is an MVNO and the host network is Vodafone. Coverage and speed therefore follow that host rather than a network of its own, which is normal for this kind of provider. 5G is available on the same network.
Is roaming in the EU included?+
Roaming is included, so the data allowance can be used across the EU without a separate travel add-on. That is the main thing that separates this from cheaper plans where EU roaming sits in the minority on price. Details of abroad conditions come from the provider's own terms.
Can I get an eSIM and a physical SIM?+
An eSIM is available if you would rather activate a plan on your phone than wait for a card. Sim only tariffs are also available, so you can bring your own handset and keep the phone you already own. WiFi calling is supported for weak-signal spots.
How do I get hold of customer service?+
Support runs over email, phone and help centre. That gives you email and phone for quick questions plus a help centre for anything you want to read at your own pace, which is handy on a billing or connection problem.
Is there a discount for several lines?+
A multi line discount applies, so a household putting more than one line on the account pays less per line than the €12 entry price suggests. It works on top of the standard monthly prices for the SIM only plans.
