AlpineSIM eSIM Data Plans for Costa Rica

AlpineSIM does not offer a truly unlimited data eSIM for Costa Rica. All plans listed have a defined data cap, such as 500 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB, up to 10 GB per day, or a fixed data allowance of 20 GB for a 30‑day validity. Travelers who need more data can select one of these fixed‑data options. For example, AlpineSIM’s Costa Rica eSIM with 20 GB for 30 days provides a large high‑speed allowance without throttling, and similar 20 GB plans are also available for broader regions. These fixed plans can be more cost‑effective if the user is not an extremely heavy data consumer.

AlpineSIM does not provide Costa Rica eSIM plans that include a phone number or SMS. Travelers who choose AlpineSIM will receive a data‑only eSIM; for voice and texting they need to rely on internet‑based services such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage. As the availability of these VoIP apps can vary in different destinations, it is advisable to confirm that the apps you intend to use work in Costa Rica before purchasing.

AlpineSIM’s catalogue includes both single‑country and multi‑country options.
In its overall list there are 38 single‑coverage plans and 75 multi‑coverage plans. Costa Rica is served by a selection of these single‑country plans, and it is also covered by several of the multi‑country packages that include Central American destinations.

The plans diverge mainly into two types: fixed data caps (36 plans) where a set amount of data is delivered over the validity period, and daily‑data‑cap plans (77 plans) in which a daily allowance is provided and can be used up to the total cap.

Pricing across the roster ranges from about $1.08 to $1, 178.31, while data limits span from 500 MB up to 20 GB and validity terms cover a single day to a full year. These figures apply to the available plans that feature Costa Rica among their destinations.
