If you're one of the thousands of people heading to North America for the World Cup, it's important to plan ahead to avoid pricey roaming fees while also protecting your digital privacy.

You can cross both off your checklist with ExpressVPN. Its Advanced plan, which costs the equivalent of $2.99/month ($83.72 in total), keeps you protected for over two years and includes three days of unlimited roaming data via its travel partner, holiday.com.

Aside from the data perk, ExpressVPN is currently ranked as our runner-up for the best streaming VPN. It reliably unblocks Netflix and most major streaming services, meaning you won't have to miss out on your favorite shows or match highlights while you're traveling.

If you need more than three days, you can top up your data through the holiday.com website or directly from your ExpressVPN dashboard.

While ExpressVPN simplifies things by keeping your VPN and data under one roof, it isn't your only option.

NordVPN's dedicated eSIM app, Saily, is a strong alternative. Along with affordable data packages for the US and Canada, Saily includes built-in security features derived from NordVPN’s Threat Protection.

This means it can actively block malicious sites and data-heavy ads right at the network level, keeping you safer on unfamiliar networks.
