Nomad eSIM Data Plans for Costa Rica

Nomad does not have a plan that truly offers unlimited high‑speed data for Costa Rica. The two plans that include “unlimited” in their names provide only 2 GB of high‑speed data each day; after that limit the speed drops to 1000 kbps. Travelers who need more data can choose from fixed‑data options such as the 20 GB plan valid for 30 days, or the 50 GB plan valid for 365 days, both of which cover Costa Rica. These fixed plans may offer better value for users who expect to use a large amount of data while remaining within the given data caps.

Nomad does not currently provide eSIM plans for Costa Rica that include a phone number or SMS capability. Travelers can only obtain data‑only plans from Nomad in Costa Rica. However, VoIP services such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage can generally be used over the data connection for communication; travelers should verify that these apps are accessible in Costa Rica before purchasing, as some destinations may block or restrict access to specific VoIP services.

Nomad provides 7 single‑country plans and 14 multi‑country plans that include Costa Rica. The plans span a wide price range from roughly $8 to $170 and offer data caps between 1 GB and 50 GB for validity periods of 5 to 365 days. Among these, 2 plans use a daily data cap approach while the remaining 19 rely on a fixed data amount, allowing users to choose between a predictable daily limit and a larger all‑inclusive data bundle.
