What the rubric scores
The rubric ranked 6 eSIM plans from 5 providers for Guam on five dimensions: Coverage (25%), Pricing (25%), Network tier (20%), App features (15%), Support access (15%). Each provider takes a 1-5 mark per dimension, and the weighted total is doubled to give the /10 display score.
Where the inputs come from
Scores for Guam use the published weighted formula: Coverage (25%), Pricing (25%), Network tier (20%), App features (15%), and Support access (15%). Each dimension receives a raw score from 1 to 5. The composite multiplies by 2 for a 0-10 display scale. Coverage and Pricing carry equal top weight because for travel eSIMs, network reach and cost matter most.
Country-specific adjustments for Guam: Single-carrier markets like Guam receive a ceiling of 4.0/5 on Coverage, since no failover redundancy exists. Unlimited plan availability in Guam adjusts the Pricing dimension to weight per-day unlimited rates alongside per-GB fixed rates. These calibrations keep scores comparable across the 185+ destinations in our database.
The scoring spread across 5 providers for Guam is 1.5 points (HelloRoam at 9.5/10 down to Nomad at 8.0/10). A spread under 1.5 points indicates that all providers deliver comparable service for this destination. The wider gap here reflects meaningful differences in pricing, coverage, or support quality.

GTA publishes 4G LTE across Guam, and every ranked provider attaches to it rather than to a network of its own. Single-carrier coverage means no automatic failover. Coverage quality depends entirely on GTA's tower infrastructure and geographic reach in Guam.
Carrier selection in Guam is largely predetermined by GTA's dominant roaming agreements. Providers compete on plan structure, pricing, and service quality rather than network access. Coverage scores follow the published partner list rather than anything measured on the ground.
