Giga.Tel eSIM Data Plans for Ecuador

No, Giga.Tel does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM plan for Ecuador. All plans marketed with “Unlimited” in the name actually give a fixed amount of high‑speed data—typically 1GB per day—with an additional reduced speed of 512kbps after that limit is reached. Because the plans are capped, travelers who need more than about 15‑30GB of daily data may find them restrictive.

Giga.Tel does offer fixed‑data alternatives that can be more cost‑effective for heavy users. For example, the LatAm 50 GB plan provides 50GB for 30 days, and the South America 7 countries 30GB for 30 days plan offers 30GB for the same duration. These options give higher data allowances at a single price, avoiding the daily 1GB cap seen in the “Unlimited” labelled plans.

Giga.Tel does not provide an eSIM for Ecuador that includes a local phone number or the ability to send or receive SMS. The plans sold by Giga.Tel for Ecuador are data‑only, which means they offer internet access without voice or text messaging services. Travelers can still use popular VoIP and messaging applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection for calls and messages.

Giga.Tel offers a range of eSIM plans that include coverage in Ecuador. The provider provides six single‑country plans and 42 multi‑country plans that cover the Ecuadorian market. The single‑country offerings typically come in two styles: fixed‑data plans that provide a set amount of data (from 500 MB up to 50 GB) and daily‑data‑cap plans that allow a certain amount of data to be used each day. Pricing for the plans that include Ecuador spans roughly $5.99 to $195.99, with data caps ranging from 500 MB to 50 GB and validity periods from one day up to a full year. The multi‑country plans are similarly structured, providing flexible data caps that can suit short‑term travelers or those needing coverage in several countries simultaneously.
