Giga.Tel eSIM Data Plans for Uganda

Giga.Tel’s plans labeled “Global Unlimited” actually provide 1GB of high‑speed data per day. After that limit is reached the speed is reduced to 512kbps, so the plans are not truly unlimited. Therefore, Giga.Tel does not offer a genuinely unlimited data eSIM for Uganda.
Instead, Giga.Tel provides fixed data plans. For example, a 20GB plan is valid for 3 days and costs $79.99 USD, and a 10GB plan is valid for 30 days and costs $47.99 USD. These plans give larger data allowances before any speed throttling.

Giga.Tel does not provide an eSIM for Uganda that includes a local phone number or SMS capabilities. Travelers looking for connectivity in Uganda can purchase only data‑only eSIM plans from Giga.Tel. For voice and messaging, users can rely on VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage, which operate over the data connection and do not require a phone number or SMS ability.

Giga.Tel offers 13 multi‑country data plans for Uganda, with no single‑country options available. The plans cover data caps from 1 GB up to 20 GB, can be valid for 1 to 30 days, and have prices that range from roughly $8.49 to $195.99. Within these 13 plans, seven are structured as daily data cap plans, where a specified amount of data is available each day, while six are fixed‑cap plans that provide a set amount of data for the entire validity period.
