Skratch eSIM Data Plans for Zambia

Skratch does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for Zambia. The plans that carry the word “Unlimited” give a daily allowance of 2 GB and, once that limit is reached, the speed is throttled to 1000 kbps. Because the high‑speed part of the plan is capped, these packages are not considered unlimited in the sense of offering data without limits.

Instead, Skratch offers fixed‑data options that may suit travelers better. For example, a 20 GB plan valid for 30 days costs $76.99, while a 10 GB 30‑day plan is $39.99 and a 5 GB 30‑day plan is $22.99. Using a fixed‑data plan can be more cost‑effective, especially for heavier data users or for those who want to avoid speed reductions.

Skratch does not provide eSIM plans in Zambia that include a phone number or SMS capability. Only data‑only eSIMs are offered for the country. Travelers can still use popular VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram and iMessage over the data connection for calls and messaging.

Skratch provides 11 single‑country plans and 3 multi‑country plans for Zambia. Prices for these plans span from roughly $7.99 to $419.70 and data caps range between 1 GB and 20 GB, with validity periods from 3 to 30 days. Some plans offer a fixed data cap that applies for the entire validity period, whereas others use a daily data cap that resets each day.
