Compare fixed allowances and daily durations
All products offer fixed 1GB/7 days and 2GB/15 days. The table shows larger total allowances for 30 days and exact daily-plan durations. Products with matching choices are grouped together.
| Destination products | Fixed total data for 30 days | Daily-plan validity choices |
|---|---|---|
| Nigeria, The Gambia and Mali | 3, 5, 10, 20, 50 or 100GB | Lite, Essential and Plus: 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 or 30 days. |
| Ghana | 3, 5, 10, 20, 50 or 100GB | Lite and Essential: 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 or 30 days. Plus: 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 or 15 days. |
| Cabo Verde | 3, 5, 10, 20 or 50GB | Lite and Essential: 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 or 30 days. Plus: 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 or 15 days. |
| Guinea-Bissau | 3, 5, 10 or 20GB | Lite, Essential and Plus: 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 or 15 days. |
| Côte d’Ivoire, Senegal, Niger and Liberia | 3, 5, 10 or 20GB | Lite, Essential and Plus: 1, 3, 5, 7 or 10 days. |
| Republic of the Congo, DRC, Gabon, Chad, Central African Republic and Cameroon | 3, 5, 10 or 20GB | Lite, Essential and Plus: 1, 3, 5, 7 or 10 days. |
| Guinea, Mauritania and Burkina Faso | 3, 5 or 10GB | Lite, Essential and Plus: 1, 3, 5 or 7 days. |
| Benin | 3 or 5GB | Lite, Essential and Plus: 1, 3 or 5 days. |
| Togo | 3 or 5GB | Lite, Essential and Plus: 1 or 3 days. |
Lite provides 1GB/day before reduction to up to 512 kbps; Essential provides 1GB/day before up to 1.25 Mbps; Plus provides 2GB/day before up to 2 Mbps. Daily allowances reset each day. These are policy limits, not guaranteed connection speeds or upgrades to the available network.
Fixed data is one total pool for its validity, without a daily reset or reduced-speed continuation once used. Where hotspot is supported, sharing uses the same allowance. Check the selected product’s own network and sharing terms before relying on laptop connectivity.
Choose by country, working days and data habits
City changes and border changes are different
Lagos and Abuja are within the Nigeria product’s destination coverage. Adding Accra, Lomé or Cotonou changes the country coverage you need. Plan data for each country stay instead of assuming a collection label combines all the products into one eSIM.
Compare a full visit, not the entry price
A one-day daily plan is not a week of connectivity. For Benin stays beyond five days or Togo stays beyond three, compare suitable fixed-data validity. For a month in Ghana or Cabo Verde, Lite and Essential have 30-day choices, while Plus stops at 15 days.
Match familiar and official destination names
Côte d’Ivoire selectors use Ivory Coast, and Cabo Verde selectors use Cape Verde. These are naming differences, not extra destinations. Guinea and Guinea-Bissau are separate products; choose the one matching your booking and arrival country.

West Africa eSIM questions
Is this a single regional plan for all 21 products?
No. This collection brings together separate destination products. Check the selected product’s exact coverage rather than treating the collection as one combined eSIM.
Can I use Plus for 30 days in Ghana or Cabo Verde?
No. Both offer Plus for up to 15 days. Their Lite and Essential options extend to 30 days. Fixed data has its own separate validity.
Are Guinea and Guinea-Bissau the same destination?
No. They are different countries with separate products. Likewise, Niger is not Nigeria. Match your exact country before selecting an allowance.
Do these plans include a local number or mobile-money verification?
These products are data-only and do not include a local number, conventional calls or SMS. Internet access alone does not provide the local number or verification texts that a payment or account service may require.
What should I check for a trip between the two Congos?
The Republic of the Congo and DRC are distinct countries. Both product records contain provider entries for the two destinations, but confirm your selected package’s coverage before crossing. Do not choose solely from the word Congo in a product or selector name.
