Skratch eSIM Data Plans for Costa Rica

Skratch does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for Costa Rica. Their “Unlimited” plans actually give 2 GB of high‑speed data per day; after that amount the speed drops to a reduced rate—512 kbps for most plans and 1000 kbps for the South America offers.

Travelers who need more high‑speed data without throttling can choose from Skratch’s fixed‑data plans. For example, a 20 GB 30‑day plan costs $57.99, a 10 GB 30‑day plan costs $34.99, and a 5 GB 30‑day plan is priced at $24.99. These alternatives may be more cost‑effective for heavy users.

Skratch does not provide a Costa Rica eSIM that includes a local phone number or SMS capability. Only data‑only eSIM plans are available from Skratch for Costa Rica. Travelers can still use VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage over the data connection for calls and messaging; however, some destinations may block or restrict access to certain apps or VoIP services, so it is advisable to check that the services you rely on are reachable in Costa Rica before purchasing.

Skratch offers 11 single‑country data packages that cover Costa Rica, and the same 11 multi‑country packages that include the country in their coverage. Prices range from $6.99 to $719.70 and data caps range from 1 GB to 20 GB over validity periods of 3 to 30 days. Some plans cap data on a daily basis, while others provide a fixed total data amount; when speed reduction applies the cap is limited to 512 kbit/s or 1 Mbit/s.
