nextSIM eSIM Data Plans for Costa Rica

nextSIM does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for Costa Rica. All plans that carry “Unlimited” in their name actually include a fixed data allowance—typically 1 GB or 2 GB per day—after which the speed is throttled to 512 kbps or 2000 kbps.

If a traveler needs a larger data budget, nextSIM offers fixed data plans such as the 100 GB 30‑day plan or the 50 GB 30‑day plan, both available for Costa Rica. These plans give a high‑speed data allowance for the full validity period and can be more cost‑effective for heavy data users.

No, nextSIM does not provide an eSIM plan with a phone number or SMS for travelers visiting Costa Rica. The provider offers only data‑only plans for that destination. Travelers who need voice or text can use popular VoIP apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram or iMessage over the data connection, but they should verify that these services are accessible in Costa Rica before purchasing, as some destinations may block or restrict particular apps or VoIP services.

NextSIM lists 52 single‑country data plans and 63 multi‑country data plans that cover Costa Rica. The available plans span a price range from about $2.70 to $1, 275.30 and offer data caps between 1 GB and 100 GB. Some of the plans are fixed‑data packages that deliver a set amount of data for the validity period, while others are daily‑cap plans that reset the data allowance every day.
