ETravelSim eSIM Data Plans for South Africa

ETravelSim does not provide a true unlimited data eSIM for South Africa. The plans that carry “Unlimited” in their name actually offer 4GB of high‑speed data per day and, once that limit is reached, the speed is throttled to 128 kbps.

Travelers who need more data can choose one of the fixed‑data plans. For example, the South Africa eSIM 50 GB for 30 days is available for $60.99 USD, and the South Africa eSIM 25 GB for 30 days is $40.99 USD. These plans give a larger, single data allowance that can be more cost‑effective for heavy‑data users.

ETravelSim does not provide South Africa eSIMs that include a phone number or SMS capability. The South Africa package available from this provider is a data‑only plan. For voice and messaging, travelers can use VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection.

ETravelSim provides a mix of single‑country and multi‑country eSIM options for travelers to South Africa. In the South African market, there are nine single‑country plans available and six multi‑country plans that include South Africa in their coverage bundle. These plans range in price from roughly $4.50 to $109.99 and offer data caps between 1 GB and 50 GB, with validity periods spanning from 5 to 365 days. Some of the plans are fixed‑data, giving a set amount of data for the entire validity period, while others use a daily data‑cap model that resets each day. This variety allows users to choose a plan that best matches their data needs and travel duration.
