GIGAGO eSIM Data Plans for South Africa

GIGAGO does not provide an unlimited data eSIM for South Africa. The provider’s Africa eSIM bundles give a fixed 50GB data allowance that can be purchased for 3, 5, 7, 10, or 15 days, with prices ranging from $92.50 to $114.50 USD. If a traveler needs more data, GIGAGO offers additional fixed‑data packages. Choosing a fixed plan can be more cost‑effective for most users, unless the traveler is an extremely heavy data consumer who would have preferred an unlimited option.

GIGAGO does not provide a South Africa eSIM that includes a local phone number or SMS capability. Travelers who buy a GIGAGO plan for South Africa will receive a data‑only eSIM, which can be used with internet‑based apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram or iMessage to call and text over the data connection.

GIGAGO currently offers 5 single coverage data plans specifically for South Africa, alongside 76 multi-country plans that include South Africa as part of their coverage. These plans range in price from approximately $2.50 to $239.50 and offer data allowances between 500MB and 50GB. GIGAGO provides both fixed data plans, offering a set amount of data for the plan’s duration, and daily data cap plans which provide a certain amount of data each day. Some plans may experience reduced speeds after a certain data usage threshold.
