Standard Gambia Unlimited options are Lite. Daily high-speed allowances refresh each day. Unlimited does not mean unrestricted high-speed data. Fixed plans end when their total allowance or validity runs out, whichever comes first, without reduced-speed continuation. Actual speeds depend on available connectivity.

Gambia networks and coverage

The provider list specifies Africell, QCell and Comium for The Gambia, where available. Actual connection and speed depend on your device, supported partner, location and local conditions. Service at every address is not guaranteed.

River trips and upcountry travel

Save maps, tickets and accommodation details offline before leaving reliable coverage. Reception can vary on the Banjul–Barra ferry, along the River Gambia, at beach lodges, inside buildings and at busy venues. Confirm essential location coverage with support before purchasing, especially for upcountry stays around Janjanbureh or boat trips to Kunta Kinteh Island.

A country entry does not promise reception throughout rural areas or on the river. This product lists The Gambia only; trips into Senegal, including the overland route to Dakar or Casamance, require separate coverage. Satellite and maritime networks are not included.

Hotspot, calls and your existing number

Hotspot use depends on your selected plan, device and network; shared usage counts toward the same allowance. This data eSIM does not include a Gambian phone number, native calls or SMS. Internet-based calling and messaging depend on connectivity and app availability.

You can keep your home SIM for calls or SMS if your device supports the arrangement. Check its roaming charges, turn off its data roaming and avoid automatic data switching. No ID verification is required for the AloOui purchase; local legal requirements may differ.

Compatibility, installation and activation

Check that your exact device model and regional version support eSIM and are carrier-unlocked. Install the emailed QR code over stable Wi-Fi using Add eSIM in your cellular or SIM settings.

Validity starts when the eSIM first uses data on a supported network in The Gambia. Installation alone does not start validity. If already within supported coverage, enabling the line and connecting can start the plan. When ready, enable AloOui, select it for mobile data and turn on data roaming for that line.

Plan and eSIM validity: After purchase, your data plan remains available to start for 6 months. The plan's validity period starts once the first data is used. The eSIM stays valid for 6 months from when it is issued, your last top-up or your last usage, whichever is later. After that date it expires and a new eSIM is needed.

APN and troubleshooting

1. Confirm AloOui is enabled, selected for mobile data and has data roaming on.
2. If manual APN setup is needed, enter data.esim with username and password blank, then save/select it.
3. Toggle airplane mode or restart your phone.
4. Try automatic network selection first. If needed, select a listed supported partner and move to a stronger-signal area.
5. Check remaining data and validity. Do not delete the eSIM or repeatedly scan a one-time QR code while troubleshooting.

Contact the AloOui Help Center with your order number, device model, location and error screenshots if service still fails.

Also visiting Senegal?

The Gambia is surrounded by Senegal, so many trips cross the border. Compare the separate Senegal eSIM for that part of your route. Africa eSIM and Global eSIM do not list The Gambia, so do not select them on the assumption that it is covered. Confirm every destination, allowance, validity and current price before purchasing.
