Plan type

Validity

What does unlimited mean?

Total: one allowance for the validity period. Daily: an allowance each day, continuation after use unconfirmed. Reduced speed: stays connected at a lower speed after the high-speed allowance. No throttling: explicitly no usage-based speed reduction. Fixed speed: a speed cap from the start. Policy unavailable: unlimited data confirmed, speed rules unknown. No throttling does not guarantee network speed.

Common questions about South Africa eSIMs

Which networks will a South Africa eSIM connect to?

Plans for South Africa sold here connect to Cell C / MTN / Telkom / Vodacom / Iliad / WINDTRE / Wind Tre / ILIAD. Speed depends on the signal where you are standing and how busy the local cell is — who you buy from does not change it.

How much does a South Africa eSIM cost?

There are 24 plans for South Africa right now, priced from 1.24 USD to 49.99 USD. Where you land depends on the data and validity you pick.

Are there unlimited plans for South Africa?

There are no truly unlimited South Africa plans here, but there are throttled-unlimited ones: once the high-speed allowance is used, the connection slows down instead of stopping. Each plan states its reduced speed under "speed after the allowance".

How many days can a South Africa eSIM cover?

Anywhere from 1 to 30 days. Validity only starts once you arrive and the eSIM actually connects to a network, so installing before you fly costs you nothing.
