Africa eSIM

Sub-Saharan Africa's connectivity varies enormously by country — South Africa and Kenya have strong 4G, while landlocked rural regions can be 3G-only. A regional eSIM gives you the strongest signal automatically at each location.

Why one regional plan beats 13 country plans

Skip the slow KYC process of local SIMs (some countries require passport scans + 48h activation). eSIMs are instant.

Quick travel hints: Currencies vary by country. English/French dominate in former colonies; local languages elsewhere.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Africa eSIM work in every country listed?
Yes — the regional plan auto-connects to whichever partner network has the strongest signal at your location across all listed destinations.
Do I need a separate plan if I leave the region briefly?
If your itinerary mostly stays within the region but includes a quick stop in a neighbouring country, check that destination's listing — many of our regional plans include it. Otherwise a short top-up or second plan is cheaper than roaming.
Will I keep the same phone number?
Your existing SIM stays active. The eSIM acts as a second line carrying only data; calls and SMS continue on your home number as usual.
What if I run out of data mid-trip?
You can top up the same eSIM from your account page — no need to reinstall. The QR code already on your phone keeps working.
How fast is the connection?
Speeds match the partner carrier's network in each country — typically 4G LTE or 5G in urban areas, falling to 3G in remote regions. We don't throttle.
