Chat on WhatsAppWhat is the best eSIM for Africa?
For a week in Africa with maps, messages and email, the 1 GB plan for 7 days (RM 49.79) is usually enough. With social media and video, expect to use 3 to 5 GB per week: the 5 GB plan for 7 days costs RM 212.29. For heavy use or work, unlimited plans start at RM 104.19 for 1 day.
Which countries does the Africa eSIM cover?
In total, the plans cover 39 countries. Fixed-data plans of 60 days, the Unlimited plan and the Unlimited Turbo plan cover 12 countries. Fixed-data plans of up to 30 days cover 36 countries. Only the 12-country plans include Morocco, Réunion and Tunisia.
Does the Africa eSIM come with a phone number?
No. Africa eSIM plans are data only. WhatsApp stays on your usual number, and you can keep your primary SIM in your phone.
How much data do I need for 15 days in Africa?
With maps, messages and email, expect to use about 1 GB per week: the 2 GB plan for 15 days costs RM 78.59. With social media and video, it's more like 3 to 5 GB per week: the 10 GB plan for 15 days costs RM 280.39.
eSIM, local SIM or roaming: which is best for Africa?
An eSIM does the job of a local SIM card, but you install it before you fly, with nothing to pick up and no need to remove your primary SIM. For Africa, plans start at RM 49.79. With roaming, you pay whatever your network charges; with the eSIM, you know the price before you travel.
Can I top up without switching eSIMs?
On most plans, yes: you top up the same eSIM from your account or the Wavee app, with no new QR code and nothing to install. The top-up screen shows the plans that work with your eSIM.
Can I use my phone as a hotspot?
Usually yes, but it depends on the plan and the local network. If it matters for your trip, talk to us before you buy.
What if I can't use the eSIM?
You have up to 30 days to request a refund in eligible cases: a cancelled trip, an incompatible or locked phone, or an eSIM that doesn't connect. We review every request, and our support team will first try to fix the problem with you on WhatsApp or by email.
