Four things to compareCheck price, data, days and restrictions
For a trip around Cape Town, Johannesburg and safari routes, compare the total price, data amount, number of days and price per GB. These figures make plans with different data amounts easier to compare.
Long driving distances can make navigation and hotspot needs larger than expected. Check unlimited plans separately because high-speed limits, reduced speeds and hotspot rules can affect how useful they are.
Common questions
What to check before you buy
How much eSIM data do I need for South Africa?
It depends on the length of your trip and how you use your phone. Maps and messages use much less data than video, hotspot use and remote work. Estimate your use for the whole trip to South Africa, then compare plans near that amount.
Should I choose a local or regional eSIM for South Africa?
A local plan can suit a trip that stays in South Africa. A regional plan may be easier when you will also visit other included countries. Compare the country list, price, data and number of days.
When should I install my eSIM for South Africa?
You can often install it before departure while you have reliable Wi-Fi. Check the instructions first because some plans start at installation and others start when they connect to a supported network.
Are the prices on this page final?
Prices are checked regularly, but taxes, promotions, currencies and plan terms can change. Confirm the final total and coverage before buying.
