SimBalkan eSIM Data Plans for Costa Rica

SimBalkan does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for Costa Rica. The plans that carry the word “Unlimited” in their name actually offer only 1 GB per day or a total of 1 GB, after which the speed is reduced.

Travelers who need more data can choose from SimBalkan’s fixed data plans, such as the 20 GB plan for 30 days, the 15 GB plan for 30 days, or the 10 GB plan for 30 days. These plans give a larger data allowance and may be more cost‑effective for most users.

SimBalkan does not offer an eSIM for Costa Rica that includes a local phone number or SMS capability; all available plans are data‑only. Travelers who need to send or receive texts or make voice calls can rely on VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection, but some destinations may block or restrict these services, so it is advisable to check that the apps you intend to use are accessible in Costa Rica before purchasing a plan.

SimBalkan offers a variety of data plans for travelers visiting Costa Rica, including both single‑country and multi‑country options. In total, there are 16 single‑country plans that can be used only in Costa Rica and an additional 5 multi‑country plans that cover Costa Rica along with other destinations.

Among the available plans, 7 are daily data‑cap plans that allot data by the day, while 14 are fixed data‑cap plans that provide a set amount of data for the entire validity period.
