    Lüm is a budget carrier designed to cater to most people. International roaming is really expensive and probably requires a lot of overhead as well. Therefore, I don't think any additional international roaming agreements are on the horizon.

    That being said there are numerous ways I usually make it work when I am on an international trip.

    For calls:

    Forward all your calls to a CDN/US VoIP number on apps like Google Voice, TextNow and Fongo.

    For data: purchase cheap data plans and download esim directly onto your device from apps like AirAlo or FlexiRoam. I have used these without any issues and have saved hundreds of dollars when travelling.

    For messaging: continue to use apps like Facebook, WhatsApp or other web messaging apps.
