BNESIM eSIM Data Plans for South Africa

BNESIM does not provide an unlimited data eSIM plan for South Africa. All of its offers for the country come with a fixed data cap, such as the Surf 100GB plan for 30 days, priced at $193.49 USD, or the Surf 50GB for 30 days at $129.75 USD. These options give travelers a substantial amount of data for short‑term usage but remain capped.

Choosing a fixed data plan may be more cost‑effective for most travelers, especially if their data consumption is moderate. Unlimited plans are typically reserved for very heavy users who need continuous high‑speed access.

BNESIM does not provide South Africa eSIM plans that include a phone number or SMS capability. The available plans are data‑only, offering connectivity through the network without a local line. Travelers can still use VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage over the data connection to make calls and send messages, but these services rely on the data connection rather than a traditional SMS or voice line.

BNESIM offers 14 single‑country plans that cover South Africa, and in addition 10 multi‑country plans that include South Africa. Prices on the single‑country list range from about $4.14 up to $362.28, while data caps span from 1 GB to 100 GB, giving travelers a wide choice from a few gigabytes of data for short trips to larger bundles for extended stays.
