South Africa eSIM: common questions

How much does mobile data cost in South Africa?

An eSIM starts at 69 ₽ for the whole package, with no monthly fee. Plans range from 100 MB to 20 GB, valid for up to 30 days.

Which networks does it use in South Africa?

The eSIM connects to Cell C (4G), MTN (5G), Telkom (3G) and Vodacom (5G). Your phone picks an available network on its own.

When should I install the eSIM?

At home, on Wi-Fi: installing needs an internet connection. Switch it on for mobile data once you're in South Africa.

Do I keep my own SIM?

Yes. The eSIM is added as a second line, and your number keeps getting calls and texts if your carrier allows it while roaming.

What if I run out of data?

Plans marked "You can add data later" can be topped up from your account. For the rest, buy a new eSIM: it installs in a couple of minutes.
