Simbye eSIM Data Plans for Africa

Simbye does not provide an unlimited data eSIM for coverage in Africa. The available plans have fixed data allowances, such as the 20 GB plan that lasts 90 days for $120.00 USD and the 10 GB plan that lasts 30 days for $65.00 USD. Choosing one of these fixed‑data options can be more cost‑effective for most travelers unless usage is extremely heavy.

Simbye does not offer an eSIM with a phone number or SMS capability for Africa. Only data‑only eSIM plans are available from the provider. Travelers who need voice or messaging can use popular VoIP apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection instead of relying on a traditional phone number or SMS service.

Simbye offers coverage in a substantial number of African countries through its plans. The ‘Global139’ plan includes Réunion, Madagascar, Malawi, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Chad, Republic of the Congo, DR Congo, Ivory Coast, Egypt, Gabon, Ghana, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Liberia, Mali, Morocco, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Seychelles, South Africa, Sudan, Eswatini (Swaziland), Tanzania, Tunisia, Uganda, and Zambia. Additionally, the ‘Africa’ plan provides coverage in Réunion, Madagascar, Malawi, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Chad, Republic of the Congo, DR Congo, Ivory Coast, Egypt, Gabon, Ghana, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Liberia, Mali, Morocco, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Seychelles, South Africa, Sudan, Eswatini (Swaziland), Tanzania, Tunisia, Uganda, and Zambia, though it's important to note that the ‘Global139’ plan also extends to numerous destinations outside of Africa.
