eSIMCard eSIM Data Plans for Africa

eSIMCard does not provide truly unlimited high‑speed data plans for Africa. The products that carry the word “Unlimited” in their name offer only 1 GB of high‑speed data (or 1 GB per day for multi‑day plans) and the speed drops to 500 kbps after the cap is reached.

For travelers who need larger data allowances, eSIMCard offers fixed‑data eSIMs such as the 100 GB, 180‑day global lineup and the 50 GB, 90‑day global option. These plans provide unthrottled data and cover many African countries, giving a more cost‑effective choice for heavy data users.

eSIMCard does not provide African eSIM plans that include a phone number or SMS capability. The provider only offers data‑only eSIMs for Africa. Travelers who need voice or messaging can use VoIP apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the available data connection.

<|channel|>analysis<|message|>We need to write an answer for the FAQ: "What countries are covered by eSIMCard's eSIM plans in Africa?" We need to refer to the dataset. The dataset is Markdown table with columns "Plan Name", "Country covered in Africa", "Other Regions covered". We have multiple rows: each row is a plan. They include various African countries. We need to list the countries in the region that are covered by the plans. The guidance says:

• The answer must clearly list the countries in the region (Africa) that are covered by eSIMCard's eSIM plans.
• Only include countries from the approved list: a fairly long list. All the countries listed in the dataset are presumably in that list, but we must double-check all names are from approval list. However, some names appear: Algeria, Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Morocco, Nigeria, Réunion, South Africa, Tunisia, Benin, Chad, Gabon, Malawi, Mauritius, Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, Republic of the Congo, DR Congo, Mozambique, Niger, Zambia? More. I should compile.

Also dataset has duplicates: multiple plan names repeated "eSIM, , , Global, Unthrottled" etc. The plan names have strange format. It's not needed to fully parse that. But the answer: "eSIMCard's eSIM plans cover the following countries in Africa: ..."

We should list all distinct countries covered by any eSIMCard's plan in Africa.

We need to include only those from the approved list. The names align with the approved list. The dataset includes "Réunion" which is an overseas French region; is it in approved list? Yes, "Réunion" is included. "South Africa" is included. "Tanzania" etc. Ok.

We should list them separated by commas.

Also we need to be careful not to use dashes (—). Use commas, parentheses, etc. The answer should be one paragraph.

We also should not mention the question (like "The question was..."). Keep answer objective.

We need not include bullet points. Just a single paragraph listing.

Also guidelines: "If available, identify and group the 'Plan Name' entries, then address any plans that include countries or territories outside of the region mentioned in the Question. (But only refer to the plan name and its coverage area. Do not include any other details such as data allowance." That means we should mention plan names and indicate coverage area outside Africa? But the user question: "What countries are covered by eSIMCard's eSIM plans in Africa?" So we only need to list the African countries covered. The guidelines say we might also group plan names and highlight any plan that includes countries outside Africa, but we should not include specific country names outside Africa. But we need to check if any plan includes countries outside Africa that we might mention plan names. But guidelines: "If available, identify and group the 'Plan Name' entries, then address any plans that include countries or territories outside of the region mentioned in the Question. (But only refer to the plan name and its coverage area. Do not include any other details such as data allowance. Do not include specific country names outside the region mentioned in the Question.)" So if we mention plan names we should also mention that they cover other regions perhaps. For example: "The 'eSIM, , , Global (Lite), Unthrottled' plan extends coverage to many non-African countries such as ...". But we must not list those other countries. Just mention that plan covers other areas. But not list.

But the answer must "clearly list the countries in the region" etc. Possibly we can group the plan names, but the question is about which countries in Africa are covered. We could say eSIMCard offers plans that cover the African countries: list them. Then optionally note that some plans also include coverage in other regions, e.g. 'Global (Lite)' covers many other countries. But we should not add any countries outside Africa, only mention that those plans cover them.

Better to maintain a single paragraph, not bullet points, but we can separate by commas and use semicolons for grouping. But we can list all countries separated by commas, maybe after "covering" listing them. Then optionally mention difference between Global plans and Africa-only plans.

Let's determine the full set of African countries listed. We'll go through dataset rows.

Dataset:

Row 1: Plan: eSIM, , , Global (Lite), Unthrottled Country covered in Africa: Algeria, Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Morocco, Nigeria, Réunion, South Africa, Tunisia Row 2: Plan: eSIM, , , Africa, Unthrottled Countries: Algeria, Benin, Chad, Egypt, Gabon, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Nigeria, Rwanda, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda

Row 3: Plan: Global Max Data for Countries: Algeria, Benin, Chad, Republic of the Congo, DR Congo, Egypt, Gabon, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Morocco, Mozambique, Niger, Nigeria, Réunion, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania, Tunisia, Uganda

Row 4: Plan: Unlimited eSIM Data For in Africa Countries: Egypt, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, Morocco, Nigeria, Réunion, South Africa, Tanzania, Tunisia, Uganda, Zambia

Row 5: Plan: Unlimited eSIM Data For in Global Countries: Cameroon, Egypt, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, Morocco, Nigeria, Réunion, Seychelles, South Africa, Tanzania, Tunisia, Uganda, Zambia

Row 6: Plan: eSIM, , , Global, Unthrottled Countries: Algeria, Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Gabon, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Madagascar, Mali, Morocco, Senegal, South Africa, Tunisia

Row 7: Plan: eSIM, , , Global, Unthrottled (second instance) Countries: Algeria, Benin, Chad, Republic of the Congo, DR Congo, Egypt, Gabon, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Morocco, Mozambique, Niger, Nigeria, Réunion, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania, Tunisia, Uganda

Also more rows? No, that's all.

Now we need to merge all unique African countries across all plans. The dataset includes:

• Algeria

• Egypt

• Ghana

• Kenya

• Madagascar

• Morocco

• Nigeria

• Réunion

• South Africa

• Tunisia

• Benin

• Chad

• Gabon

• Malawi

• Mauritius

• Rwanda

• Sudan

• Tanzania

• Uganda

• Republic of the Congo

• DR Congo

• Mozambique

• Niger

• Zambia

• Cameroon

• Burkina Faso

• Central African Republic

• Guinea

• Guinea-Bissau

• Mali

• Senegal

• Botswana

• Seychelles (?), included in plan 5: yes, "Seychelles" is listed as African: "Unlimited eSIM Data For in Global" but includes Seychelles, which is indeed an African country; yes, Seychelles is in approved list. So include Seychelles.

• Cameroon, yes also included.

Also in plan 5: Africa included Seychelles. So include Seychelles.

Also plan 5: "Unlimited eSIM Data For in Global" includes Seychelles.

And "Zambia" included.

Also "Mauritius" included.

Now let's list all unique countries, sorted maybe alphabetically, but we can just list them separated by commas. The answer should be distinct. Let's confirm each country appears in approved list.

Approved list: includes all these names? Check:

Egypt: yes South Africa: yes Tunisia: yes Morocco: yes Tanzania: yes Ghana: yes Nigeria: yes Algeria: yes Kenya: yes Republic of the Congo: yes DR Congo: yes Eritrea: not present ... There's also "Cote D"Ivoire" maybe not present, but that is not in dataset.

Check each:

Algeria: approved Egypt: approved Ghana: approved Kenya: approved Madagascar: approved Morocco: approved Nigeria: approved Réunion: approved South Africa: approved Tunisia: approved Benin: approved Chad: approved Gabon: approved Malawi: approved Mauritius: approved Rwanda: approved Sudan: approved Tanzania: approved Uganda: approved Republic of the Congo: approved DR Congo: ??? "DR Congo" presumably "Democratic Republic of the Congo" is in approved list as "DR Congo". Yes approved list includes "DR Congo". Mozambique: approved Niger: approved Zambia: approved Cameroon: approved Burkina Faso: approved Central African Republic: approved Guinea: in approved list? Let's see: Approved list lists: "Guinea" yes? The approved list: "Guinea" is included? The approved list: "Guinea" appears: "Guinea Bissau" definitely present, also "Guinea" present? The list appears to include "Guinea" anywhere? Let's look at approved list: It starts: "Egypt, South Africa, Tunisia, Morocco, Tanzania, Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, Algeria, Uganda, Réunion..." then continues: "Madagascar, Mauritius, Malawi, Chad, Zambia, Niger, Gabon, Republic of the Congo, Cameroon, DR Congo, Senegal, Seychelles, Mozambique, Botswana, Liberia, Sudan, Ivory Coast, Eswatini (Swaziland), Guinea-Bissau, Rwanda, Burkina Faso, Mali, Central African Republic, Benin, Mayotte, Guinea, Cape Verde, Lesotho, Ethiopia, Gambia, Sierra Leone, Mauritania, Togo, Namibia, Zimbabwe, South Sudan, Angola, Burundi, Equatorial Guinea, Comoros, Libya, Western Sahara, São Tomé and Príncipe, British Indian Ocean Territory, Eritrea, Djibouti, Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha, Somalia". Yes, "Guinea" is included. So fine.

Guinea-Bissau: included.

Mali: included.

Senegal: included.

Seychelles: included.

Botswana: included.

Liberia: not present in dataset.

Sudan: yes.

Other countries present: "Seychelles" matched.

The dataset also includes "Mozambique".

Also "Mauritania": included.

"Rwanda": included.

"Guinea-Bissau": included.

"Benin": included.

"Mayotte" no.

"Guinea" yes.

I think all countries in dataset appear on approved list. Good.

Now we need to list all of them in answer. The answer must be single paragraph. Should we list them all separated by commas. maybe we can separate by commas and maybe 'and' before last? Not necessary. The answer can just list them separated by commas.

Let's compile list:

Algeria Benin Cameroon Chad Central African Republic Republic of the Congo DR Congo Egypt Gabon Ghana Guinea Guinea-Bissau Kenya Madagascar Malawi Mauritius Mali Mauritania Morocco Namibia? Not in dataset. No. Niger Nigeria Q. No others.

Wait possibilities: "Somalia"? Not in dataset. No.

"Uganda" yes.

"Tanzania" yes.

"South Africa" yes.

"South Sudan" no.

"Sudan" yes.

"Uganda" yes.

"Zimbabwe" no? Not part of dataset, check: "Zimbabwe" appears? Plan 5: no. Plan 5: "Unlimited eSIM Data For in Global" covers Zambia, Cameroon, etc, but not Zimbabwe. Wait there is no mention of Zimbabwe in dataset. In plan 6: no. In plan 7: any mention? Let's scan: list: Algeria, Benin, Chad, Republic of the Congo, DR Congo, Egypt, Gabon, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Morocco, Mozambique, Niger, Nigeria, Réunion, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania, Tunisia, Uganda. No Zimbabwe or Botswana? Wait Plan 5: includes Cameroon, so that's fine. Plan 6: includes Botswana, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Gabon, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Madagascar, Mali, Morocco, Senegal, South Africa, Tunisia. No Zimbabwe.

Plan 3: includes Mozambique, but no Zimbabwe.

Plan 4: includes Zambia but not Zimbabwe.

So Zimbabwe is not covered in dataset. We should not list it.

Now list all distinct countries:

• Algeria
• Benin
• Cameroon
• Chad
• Central African Republic
• Republic of the Congo
• Democratic Republic of the Congo (abbreviated as DR Congo)
• Egypt
• Gabon
• Ghana
• Guinea
• Guinea-Bissau
• Kenya
• Madagascar
• Malawi
• Mauritius
• Mali
• Mauritania
• Morocco
• Niger
• Nigeria
• Réunion
• Rwanda
• Seychelles
• South Africa
• Sudan
• Tanzania
• Tunisia
• Uganda
• Zambia
• Mozambique
• Botswana? Wait we have Botswana included in plan 6: eSIM, Global, Unthrottled: includes Botswana. Yes plan 6: list includes Botswana. So yes the dataset includes Botswana. Also hold on, plan 6: "eSIM, , , Global, Unthrottled" list includes: Algeria, Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Gabon, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Madagascar, Mali, Morocco, Senegal, South Africa, Tunisia. So add Botswana and Burkina Faso and Senegal also included.

Also Sierra? Wait, no.

Simgle: plan 7: includes Mauritius etc.

So we must incorporate these countries:

• Botswana
• Burkina Faso
• Senegal

Also previously we had "Seychelles". That's the only island listed.

So list should include:

Algeria, Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Republic of the Congo, DR Congo, Egypt, Gabon, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Nigeria, Réunion, Rwanda, Seychelles, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, Tunisia, Uganda, Zambia, Mozambique.

The order can be alphabetical or any. We'll choose alphabetical for clarity.

But we need to be careful: The mention of "Réunion" we treat as separate. In alphabetical order: "Réunion" after "Nigeria"? Might come after "Naira"? But our answer should still contain correct names.

Now, guidelines: "Only include countries from this approved list". So the list above all appear on approved list.

Also guidelines: "If available, identify and group the 'Plan Name' entries, then address any plans that include countries or territories outside of the region mentioned in the Question. (But only refer to the plan name and its coverage area. Do not include any other details such as data allowance. Do not include specific country names outside the region mentioned in the Question.)"

So do we need to mention plan names and that some include coverage outside Africa? If we mention plan names, we could say e.g. "The 'eSIM, , , Global (Lite), Unthrottled' plan covers many non-African countries including Europe, Americas, etc. Similarly, 'Unlimited eSIM Data For in Global' covers extensive non-African territories." But we should not mention those non-African countries names. We can just say they cover "additional territories outside Africa." That may satisfy guidelines. But the question is simply: "What countries are covered by eSIMCard's eSIM plans in Africa?" One may answer just the list of countries without mention of plans. But guidelines ask to identify and group plan name entries if possible. But it's optional? It says "If available, identify and group the 'Plan Name' entries, then address any plans that include countries or territories outside of the region mentioned in the Question." So we can optionally add some mention. But if we do, we must not mention non-African country names. In addition, we must not use dashes.

But is it necessary for guidelines? It's unclear. But maybe we should provide mention of plan names. But the answer may be too complicated. Considering guidelines: "If available, identify and group the 'Plan Name' entries, then address any plans that include countries or territories outside of the region mentioned in the Question."

Thus we can optionally say something like: "eSIMCard offers several plans: Global (Lite) and Africa Unthrottled, etc. The Africa-specific plans cover ... while Global plans also cover regions beyond Africa" but we must not list those regions.

But must be careful to not break other guidelines: single paragraph, no bullet points. So we need to incorporate it all into a single paragraph.

Thus something like:

"eSIMCard's eSIM plans cover the following African countries: Algeria, Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Republic of the Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt, Gabon, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Nigeria, Réunion, Rwanda, Seychelles, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, Tunisia, Uganda, Zambia, and Mozambique. In addition, some plans (for instance, the Global (Lite) and the Unlimited eSIM Data Plans) also provide coverage in numerous regions outside Africa."

But we have used "some plans" phrase. It's okay. We must also not mention any specific countries outside Africa. We'll just say "numerous regions outside Africa" which is acceptable.

Also we need to avoid using dashes. We have used a hyphen in "Democratic Republic of the Congo". Should we use a dash? Actually "Democratic Republic of the Congo" does not contain hyphen. That's fine.

We have "Réunion" with an accent. That's fine. We also have to watch for en dashes or em dashes. Use regular hyphen for "African" etc. But no dashes in the list.

Double-check: "Republic of the Congo" contains no hyphen. Good.

"Democratic Republic of the Congo" contains no hyphen. Good.

We also have "Seychelles" etc.

Now check guidelines: "do not use dashes (—) in the answer. Instead, use commas, parentheses, and other standard punctuation." So we must not use em dash. We used hyphen only for "Democratic Republic of the Congo" which is fine because there is no hyphen. Em dash is different from hyphen. The wording forbids "—" but we can use "-". The a hyphen is fine. But we have no hyphen in our sentences. We used "some plans (for instance, the Global (Lite) and the Unlimited eSIM Data Plans) also provide coverage in numerous regions outside Africa." This uses parentheses correctly. No dash.

Make sure no "—" appears. No "–" or "—".

Now we need to ensure we didn't mention any non-African names besides "Global" etc. We mentioned "Global (Lite)" etc. Those are plan names. They mention coverage outside Africa. We have not listed any non-African country names. Good.

Now, "eSIMCard" mention: we refer to eSIMCard.

Just to be safe: The answer must have objective tone. Yes.

The answer must not have title: we won't include title.

Make it single paragraph. Yes.

Spacing: We'll minimize headings.

Final answer: "eSIMCard's eSIM plans cover ...".

Thus we will output final.<|end|><|start|>assistant<|channel|>final<|message|>eSIMCard’s eSIM plans cover the following African countries: Algeria, Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Republic of the Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt, Gabon, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea‑Bissau, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Nigeria, Réunion, Rwanda, Seychelles, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, Tunisia, Uganda, Zambia, and Mozambique. Some plans, such as the Global (Lite) and the Unlimited eSIM Data Plans, also provide coverage in many regions outside Africa.
