nextSIM eSIM Data Plans for Malawi

nextSIM does not provide a true unlimited data eSIM for Malawi. Its plans that carry the word “Unlimited” actually give a fixed daily allowance—either 1GB/day or 2GB/day—after which the speed is reduced to 512kbps or 2000kbps. Those plans are therefore not unlimited in the sense of unlimited high‑speed data. Travelers who need a larger data budget may choose from the fixed‑data offerings, such as the 10GB 30‑day plan priced at $61.08 USD or the 20GB, 30GB, 40GB, and 50GB global plans that include Malawi coverage. Selecting a fixed‑data plan can be more cost‑effective unless the user is an extremely heavy data consumer.

nextSIM does not provide an eSIM for Malawi that includes a phone number or SMS capability, only data‑only plans are available. Travelers who need to make calls or send messages can use VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage over the data connection.
