Orbit Mobile eSIM Data Plans for South Africa

Orbit Mobile does not provide any unlimited data eSIM plans for South Africa. The available plans for South Africa are all fixed‑data packages, such as the 10GB plan that costs $20.50 and lasts 30 days, or the 5GB plan that costs $11.50 and also lasts 30 days. These fixed data options can be a more cost‑effective choice for most travelers, unless you are an extremely heavy data user that requires an unlimited plan.

Orbit Mobile does not provide an eSIM for South Africa that includes a phone number or SMS capability. Only data‑only plans are available. Travelers can still use services such as WhatsApp, Telegram or iMessage over the data connection for voice and messaging, but no traditional phone number or SMS service is included.

Orbit Mobile provides a total of eight data plans available for use in South Africa. Four of those plans are designed for single‑country use, offering data ranges from 1 GB to 10 GB with a price span of roughly $3.00 to $60.00 per 30‑day validity period. In addition, four plans cover multiple countries, allowing users to roam across various destinations while still staying within the same pricing and data thresholds. Many of the plans also permit tethering, giving customers flexibility to share data with other devices.
