iRoamly eSIM Data Plans for South Africa

iRoamly does not provide a plan with an truly unlimited data cap for South Africa. All of the South Africa eSIM plans listed by iRoamly give a fixed high‑speed data allowance of 500GB that is valid for a set number of days. For example, the South Africa‑eSIM‑Unlimited‑Data‑1 day plan offers 500GB of high‑speed data for 1 day at $6.50 USD, and the South Africa‑eSIM‑Unlimited‑Data‑3 days plan gives the same 500GB for 3 days at $17.50 USD. These fixed‑data options may be more cost‑effective unless a user needs very heavy data usage.

iRoamly does not provide a South Africa eSIM plan that includes a local phone number or SMS capability. The provider’s South Africa offerings are limited to data‑only eSIMs.

Travelers who need to make calls or send messages can rely on VoIP applications—such as WhatsApp, Telegram or iMessage—that operate over the data connection. These apps allow communication without requiring a traditional phone number or SMS service.

iRoamly offers eight single‑country data plans in South Africa and six multi‑country plans that include South Africa. The single‑country options range from 500 MB to 50 GB of data, priced between $0 and $40, while the multi‑country packages vary from 1 GB to 20 GB with prices from $10 to $80. The single‑country plans provide a fixed data amount for a set validity period, whereas the multi‑country plans include daily data caps or a data rollover feature across the covered regions.
