AlpineSIM eSIM Data Plans for Costa Rica

AlpineSIM does not provide a truly unlimited‑data eSIM for Costa Rica. All plans that include “Unlimited” in their name give a limited daily data allowance (for example 500 MB/day or 1 GB/day) that is capped before throttle or speed reduction occurs. For travelers who need more data, fixed‑data plans are available. AlpineSIM offers a 20 GB plan valid for 30 days and another 20 GB plan valid for 90 days, both of which provide high‑speed data without further limits during their validity period. These larger fixed‑data plans can be more cost‑effective for users who consume significant data while in Costa Rica.

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.
