eSIM for South Africa

It depends on the plan you select. Available carriers and network types (such as 4G or 5G) are shown in each plan's details and in the eSIM specifications above. After purchase, your eSIM uses the partner networks listed for that plan.

After checkout you receive a QR code (or activation details). On your phone, open Settings → Cellular / Mobile network → Add eSIM, then scan the QR code. Enable data roaming for that line when you arrive in South Africa.
