eSIMCard eSIM Data Plans for Nigeria

eSIMCard does not offer truly unlimited data eSIM plans for Nigeria.
All of its “Unlimited” plans provide a fixed daily allowance—most are 1GB/day, some 2GB/day—and after the daily quota is reached the speed is throttled to 500kbps or, in the “Plus” variants, to 2000kbps. For example, the Unlimited eSIM Data For 15 days in Nigeria is limited to 1GB/day with a reduced speed of 500kbps, while the Unlimited Plus eSIM Data For 15 days offers 2GB/day and slows to 2000kbps once the limit is hit.

Travelers who want a larger unthrottled data package can consider eSIMCard’s fixed data plans, such as the 100 GB for 180 days or the 50 GB for 90 days plans, which provide substantial data allowances without the daily caps that characterize the “Unlimited” labels.

eSIMCard does not provide a Nigeria eSIM that includes a local phone number or SMS capability. The provider only offers data‑only eSIM plans for travelers in Nigeria.

Users can still communicate by using VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection, which allow calls and messaging without a traditional phone number or SMS service.

eSIMCard currently offers 18 single coverage data plans specifically for Nigeria. Additionally, they provide 43 multi-country plans that include Nigeria as part of their coverage. These plans vary, with some offering a fixed data amount ranging from 1GB to 100GB, while others provide a daily data allowance. Prices for these plans range from $4.78 to $478.46. Some plans also include features like tethering, and may experience reduced speeds after reaching certain data thresholds, such as 500MB or 2GB.
