Nesa eSIM Data Plans for Kenya

Nesa does not provide any unlimited data eSIM plans for Kenya. Travelers who need higher data volumes can choose from fixed‑data alternatives. For instance, a 20GB 30‑day plan for Kenya costs $96.50 USD and is available on 4G networks, while a global 20GB 30‑day plan for $77.00 USD gives access to 5G across Kenya and 119 other countries. These options are typically more cost effective unless the user requires an extremely high data consumption that would exceed the provided allowance.

Nesa does not offer Kenya eSIMs that include a phone number or SMS capability; only data‑only plans are available. This means travelers cannot receive inbound or outbound voice or text messages through the eSIM. Travelers who need to communicate can use VoIP services such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection, which work without a local phone number.

Nesa offers a total of 10 single‑country data plans for Kenya and 16 multi‑country plans that include Kenya. The plans vary from a 500 MB data cap to 20 GB, priced between $4.50 and $115, and are valid for 1 to 365 days. Some plans are fixed‑data packages, while others impose a daily data cap; both options are available.
