Nomad eSIM Data Plans for Costa Rica

Nomad does not offer any unlimited data eSIM plans for Costa Rica; every plan listed on the provider’s catalogue has a fixed data allowance.

Travelers can choose from a range of high‑cap plans that still provide substantial bandwidth. For example, a 50‑GB plan valid for 365 days costs $170.00 USD, while a 20‑GB plan for 30 days costs $29.00 USD. Both plans allow tethering and operate on 4G (and 5G for some regional offers). For users who consume data at a very high rate, a fixed data plan such as these may be more cost‑effective than seeking an unlimited option from another provider.

Nomad does not provide a Costa Rica eSIM plan that includes a local phone number or SMS capability. Only data‑only eSIMs are available for Costa Rica, so travelers cannot receive or send SMS through the device. However, standard VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage can be used over the data connection for voice calls and messaging.

Nomad offers five single‑country data plans for Costa Rica, and an additional set of 15 multi‑country plans that include Costa Rica.
The single‑country options range from about $8 to $70, with data caps between 1 GB and 10 GB, typically valid for 7 to 30 days.
The multi‑country bundles span roughly $50 to $170 and provide data ranging from 3 GB up to 50 GB, with validity periods that can extend from a week to an entire year. These plans differ mainly in whether the data is restricted to Costa Rica alone or usable across several destinations, and in the usage caps or daily limits that may apply.
