Worth a tryOur verdict

Ryoko PRO is a simple way to carry your own WiFi: turn it on, scan the code, and up to 10 devices share one connection in the 133 countries the brand covers. The 6-month plan is the better deal, since it includes the device. Order a couple of weeks before you travel, test it at home within the first 500 MB, and put the renewal date in your calendar so you decide whether to keep the plan.

Best for
Travelers, RV and camping families and remote workers who want one private WiFi network for up to 10 devices, at home and abroad, without setting up roaming on every phone.
Why we like it
It arrives ready to use, with the SIM installed and a QR code to connect; the brand lists coverage in 133 countries with no roaming fees; the device is included with the 6-month plan at $19.99 a month; and it's backed by 60-day returns, a 2-year warranty and a 4.3 Trustpilot score from more than 27,000 reviews.
Keep in mind
In the US it's sold with a data plan that renews automatically until you cancel, full-speed data is 15 GB a month, and a change-of-mind return needs 500 MB of use or less.

What is Ryoko PRO, and who makes it?

Ryoko PRO is a pocket-size WiFi hotspot. It has its own SIM card already installed, picks up mobile data from local networks and turns it into a private, password-protected WiFi network for your phone, laptop, tablet and anything else that uses WiFi. The brand says it works in 133 countries with no roaming fees, connects up to 10 devices at once, reaches speeds of up to 150 Mb/s and runs for up to 8 hours on a charge.

It's built to be easy. There are no settings to learn: you hold the power button, the screen shows a QR code, and you scan it with your phone's camera. The same screen shows signal strength, how many devices are connected, the battery level and how much data you have left. A switch on the device turns on the brand's ad blocker, which it says also blocks trackers and known malware and phishing sites.

The mobile data comes from Viaota, the brand's own data service. The SIM arrives with 500 MB to get you started, and in the US the device is sold together with the Unlimited+ data plan, so it's ready for a trip as soon as it's delivered.

It's sold by ORIAVA INC (Franklin, Tennessee, USA). The store's terms say Ryoko Pro is a brand name and registered trademark used and operated by ORIAVA INC, 354 Downs Blvd, Suite 101, Franklin, TN 37067. Customer service has a US phone line, +1 (443) 456-4433, plus a contact form and a help center. Orders ship from a fulfillment center, and returns go only to the address support sends with your return code, never to the office.

Power on, scan the QR code, connected. From the brand's own user guide video.

Who Ryoko PRO suits, and who should skip it

A good fit for

  • Travelers who want internet the moment they land, without buying a local SIM or paying their carrier's roaming rates
  • Families and groups: one hotspot shares a connection with up to 10 phones, tablets and laptops
  • RV trips, camping and weekend cabins in places with mobile coverage but no WiFi
  • Remote workers who'd rather use their own password-protected network than hotel, airport or cafe WiFi
  • Parents and grandparents who want something simple: one power button and a QR code

Skip it or ask a doctor first

  • Anyone looking for a one-time, device-only purchase: the US checkout sells Ryoko PRO with a data plan that renews until you cancel
  • A replacement for home or office broadband. The terms say the plans are meant for travel, mobile use and occasional streaming
  • Heavy streaming or gaming every day: full speed covers 15 GB a month, then the plan slows down until the next cycle
  • People who want to use their own carrier's SIM card. The device is meant for the SIM that comes installed
  • Trips to a country that isn't on the brand's coverage list; check the list on the official page first

The official page shows the hotspot as a travel companion for trips long and short. These are the situations the brand designed it for.

Does Ryoko PRO work?

A mobile hotspot does one job: it connects to a cellular network, the way a phone does, and rebroadcasts that connection as WiFi. Ryoko PRO does this with its own SIM card, so your phone's plan and battery are left alone, and everyone travelling with you can join the same network. The brand says it automatically picks the nearest tower from its partner networks in 133 countries, which is why there's nothing to configure when you cross a border.

How fast it feels depends on the mobile signal where you are, as with any hotspot. The brand quotes up to 150 Mb/s, and its help center gives sensible advice for getting the most out of it: put the device near a window rather than deep inside a building or a bag, keep it upright on a table, and pause big downloads on other devices when you need a steady video call. It also notes that the first connection in a new country can take up to 20 minutes.

Data is the part to plan. The SIM comes with 500 MB valid for 30 days, enough to set up and test. The Unlimited+ plan sold at the US checkout gives 15 GB a month at full speed under the terms, then keeps you online at 256 kbps until the next cycle, which is fine for messages, maps and email. The brand's help center suggests switching video apps to standard definition and turning off auto-play and cloud backups while you travel, and you can add a top-up in the self-service portal if you need more.

Using your own hotspot also means you aren't sharing an open network with strangers. The brand adds its ad blocker on top, which it says blocks ads, trackers and known malware and phishing domains; if a site you trust stops loading, the user guide says to switch the feature off and try again.

Our advice for a smooth start: charge it, turn it on at home as soon as it arrives and connect your phone and laptop. That first test uses very little data, keeps you well inside the 500 MB allowed for a return, and tells you how it performs before the trip.

How much Ryoko PRO costs

Prices on the official store on November 14, 2026. The store sells Ryoko PRO together with its data plan, so both options below renew until you cancel. The first payment for each is in the table; how renewal and cancelling work is in the note below. The store shows the price of one device, so the total is that price times the devices in your pack.

How the refund really works

60-day returns; a change-of-mind return needs the device to have used 500 MB of data or less

You have 60 days from delivery to ask for a refund, exchange or store credit. The guarantee is there so you can check that Ryoko PRO works where you need it: you can use up to 500 MB of data in total on the SIM card and still qualify, and you can see your usage on the device screen or in the app. Contact support through the contact form with your name, email and order number; within about 3 business days you get a return form, an RMA code and the return address. Send the device back in its original, undamaged packaging with tracking and add the tracking number to the form. You pay return postage, and shipping costs aren't refunded. The refund is issued within 14 days of the parcel arriving and usually shows at your bank in 3 to 5 business days. A defective, damaged or wrong item is handled by support first, and data used while support troubleshoots with you doesn't count toward the 500 MB.

Before you pay: The US checkout has no one-time, device-only option. Both choices include a data plan that renews automatically until you cancel. The 6-month plan charges $119.94 up front (shown as $19.99 a month) with the device included, then renews every 6 months at the regular price; the checkout doesn't put a number on that renewal, and the regular price it crosses out is $399.80 for six months ($66.63 a month), so ask support to confirm the amount. The monthly plan charges $166.50 once for the device plus $66.63 a month. To stop renewals, cancel in the Billing section of the self-service portal or ask support by contact form or at support@getryoko.com before your renewal date; the plan then stays active until the end of the period you paid for. If you cancel the 6-month plan during its first 6 months, the terms allow an early cancellation adjustment of up to $39 after any unused prepaid months are deducted. The terms also let you pause a plan once, for up to 6 months.

How to order without surprises

  1. Pick only the extras you want

    The store shows optional add-ons and offers around the order. Ryoko PRO already comes with the SIM card, a USB-C cable and a 2-year defect warranty, so you can skip any extra you don't need and check the order summary before you confirm.

  2. Order two to three weeks before your trip

    The shipping policy estimates 8 to 12 business days for US delivery. Order early, keep the tracking number from the confirmation email, and try the device at home before you leave.

Is Ryoko PRO legit or a scam?

Ryoko PRO is a real product sold through the brand's own store, which names its operator, ORIAVA INC of Franklin, Tennessee, in the terms. The store has a US phone line, a contact form, a searchable help center, a published 60-day return policy and a 2-year warranty for defects.

On Trustpilot, the Ryoko profile is rated 4.3 out of 5, which Trustpilot labels "Excellent", from 27,802 reviews, and 86% of them give four or five stars. The profile has been claimed since March 2020, and Trustpilot shows that the company has replied to 100% of its negative reviews, typically within 24 hours. In the 20 newest reviews, the clear favorite is how quick and easy ordering is. Many of those were written right after the purchase, so they say more about buying than about weeks of use; one returning owner adds that an earlier device worked everywhere they took it.

The practical points from the same reviews are easy to act on: choose only the extras you want at checkout, and order two to three weeks ahead of a trip. The sales page shows its own customer count and comments; we couldn't verify those, so the numbers here are Trustpilot's.

Where to buy the original Ryoko PRO

Order from the official Ryoko PRO store. That's where the prices shown here apply and where the 60-day return policy and 2-year warranty cover your order. The brand itself says the genuine device is only sold on its official website.

On November 14, 2026 the US checkout showed two plans. The 6-month plan includes the device and costs $119.94 for the first six months of data, which the store shows as $19.99 a month. The monthly plan costs $166.50 for the device plus $66.63 a month. Standard shipping showed as free. The terms say orders are processed in 1 to 3 business days, and the shipping policy estimates 8 to 12 business days for US delivery.

Before you confirm, pick your plan, read the renewal line under the payment form, and look at the two contact boxes for promotional texts and calls: they came already ticked, so untick them if you don't want those. Any extra offer shown around the order is optional. When the device arrives, activate the SIM within two months, as the terms require.

Is there a monthly fee or subscription with Ryoko PRO?

Yes. Ryoko PRO runs on mobile data, and the US checkout sells it with a data plan that renews automatically until you cancel: every 6 months on the 6-month plan, or every month on the monthly plan. The checkout says the 6-month plan renews at the regular price, so confirm the renewal amount with support and note the date.

How do I cancel a Ryoko PRO subscription?

Log in to the self-service portal named on the device screen, open the Billing section and cancel the plan, or ask support through the contact form or by email. The brand's help center says the plan then stays active until the end of the period you've paid for and doesn't renew. Under the terms, cancelling the 6-month plan during its first 6 months can bring an early cancellation adjustment of up to $39, after unused prepaid months are deducted.

Is Ryoko PRO data really unlimited?

The plan is called Unlimited+ and keeps you connected all month, with a fair use policy. The terms give 15 GB a month at full speed, then 256 kbps until the next cycle, and say an account that passes 40 GB in a month may be reviewed. For maps, messages, email, browsing and some streaming on a trip, 15 GB goes a long way; top-ups are available in the self-service portal.

How much data comes with Ryoko PRO?

The pre-installed SIM card comes with 500 MB of data, valid for 30 days from activation, according to the brand. The plan you choose at checkout adds your monthly data on top.

Yes, according to the brand. Its coverage list has 133 countries, including the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, most of Europe, Japan, Australia and many countries in Asia, South America and Africa.

Up to 8 hours of WiFi per charge, according to the brand. It recharges with the USB-C cable in the box or any other USB-C cable.

Can I use my own SIM card in Ryoko PRO?

The device is designed for the SIM card that comes installed. The store's terms say the data plans only work with that SIM, that the ad blocker and data counter are tied to it, and that using another SIM is at your own risk and voids the warranty.

Can I return Ryoko PRO?

Yes, within 60 days of delivery. For a change-of-mind return the device must have used no more than 500 MB of data in total and go back in its original packaging. Contact support first for the return form, RMA code and address. You pay return postage, and shipping costs aren't refunded.

Is there a Ryoko PRO discount code?

The checkout has a promo code field, and on November 14, 2026 the store was running its own promotion: the 6-month plan at $19.99 a month instead of the crossed-out $66.63, with the device included. If you try a code from another site, make sure you're still on the brand's own checkout, because the 60-day return policy only covers orders placed there.
