GigSky eSIM Data Plans for South Africa

GigSky does not provide an unlimited data eSIM plan for South Africa. The available options are fixed‑data plans, such as the South Africa plan which offers 10GB for 30 days at $42.99 USD and the Africa plan that also gives 10GB for 30 days at $72.99 USD. These fixed data plans are available across South Africa and in a small number of other countries. While they may be less expensive for most travelers, a fixed plan could be more cost‑effective unless you need a very large amount of data, in which case you might look into GigSky’s larger capacity options like the 20GB Cruise + World plan or the 50GB World Plan, though neither is unlimited.

GigSky does not offer an eSIM that includes a local phone number or SMS capability for South Africa. The available plans from the provider are data‑only.

Travelers who need to stay linked can use internet‑based services such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage, which work over the data connection provided by the GigSky eSIM.

GigSky currently offers 12 single coverage data plans specifically for South Africa, alongside 15 multi-country plans that include South Africa as one of the covered countries. These plans vary, with some offering a fixed data amount ranging from 100MB to 50GB, while others provide a daily data allowance. Prices for these plans range from $0.00 to $329.99, and validity periods extend from 1 to 180 days.
