eSIMCard eSIM Data Plans for Benin

eSIMCard does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM travelers in Benin. The plans that carry “Unlimited” in the name actually include a fixed high‑speed data allowance—such as 1GB or 2GB for a single day or per day for 3‑ or 5‑day periods—after which the connection speed drops to a reduced level (500kbps or 2000kbps). Because of this throttling, the plans are not unlimited in the sense of providing unrestricted high‑speed data.

Travelers who need more data can choose from several fixed‑data options. For example, the 100GB plan is valid for 180 days and the 25GB for 30 days, while the 20GB global plan lasts 31 days. These plans offer unthrottled data across Benin and other countries and can be more cost‑effective for heavy users compared to the “Unlimited” plans that have strict caps.

No, eSIMCard does not provide a Benin eSIM that includes a phone number or SMS capability. The provider only offers data‑only eSIM plans for Benin. Travelers can still use data‑based services such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage to make calls and send messages, but there is no native phone number or SMS service from eSIMCard in Benin.

eSIMCard offers 10 single‑country data plans and 23 multi‑country data plans for Benin. These plans cover a price range from about $6.99 to $478.46, data volumes from 1 GB up to 100 GB, and validity periods between 1 and 365 days. Some plans use a fixed data allotment that remains constant for the entire validity period, while others reset the data cap each day, giving travelers the option of daily data limits.
