GLOBAL YO eSIM Data Plans for South Africa

GLOBAL YO does not offer an unlimited data eSIM plan for South Africa. The available options are fixed‑data packages. For example, a plan with 100 GB for 60 days costs $104.99 USD, and another with 100 GB for 365 days is $109.99 USD. A smaller 50 GB plan lasting 30 days is priced at $59.99 USD. Choosing a fixed‑data plan can be more cost‑effective unless a user requires a very high data volume that would exceed the allowance.

GLOBAL YO does not provide South Africa eSIMs that include a local phone number or SMS capability. Travelers can only obtain data‑only eSIMs with this provider; voice and text services can be handled through internet‑based messaging and calling apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage using the data connection.

GLOBAL YO offers 16 single‑country data plans and 64 multi‑country data plans covering South Africa. The available plans span a price range from $1.00 to $179.99 and feature data caps between 100 MB and 100 GB, with validity periods ranging from 1 to 365 days. Some plans apply a daily data cap, limiting the amount of data available each day, while others provide a fixed data allowance that remains constant throughout the plan’s duration. Tethering is permitted on applicable plans, though speed may be reduced to 512 kb/s.
