GigSky eSIM Data Plans for China

GigSky does not provide an unlimited data eSIM plan for China. The available China‑specific plans all have fixed data caps, with the largest offering 100 GB for 180 days at $332.49 USD and a 50 GB plan for 90 days priced at $129.99 USD. Because the plans cap usage, travelers who will consume more data than the plan allowance would exceed the cap, whereas a fixed data plan can be more cost‑effective for those who do not need more than the included amount.

GigSky does not provide an eSIM that includes a local phone number or SMS capability for China. Travelers can only purchase data‑only plans from GigSky in China; visual and audio calls or text messages must be made through VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage that operate over the data connection.

GigSky offers a total of 13 single‑country plans that provide coverage in China and 29 multi‑country plans that include China among other destinations. These plans vary in pricing and data allowances – generally ranging from free (or very low cost) options to packages over $300 for large data bundles. Data caps span from just 100 MB up to 100 GB, with validity periods that can be as short as one day or extend up to 180 days. Providers usually split plans into two main types: daily data cap plans, which reset each day, total 6 such offerings, and fixed data cap plans that grant a set amount of data for the entire validity period, of which there are 36.
