Coverage and infrastructure vary widely by country, so having one dependable data connection across your whole itinerary is especially useful here.
Yes. Buying and installing your Telisco eSIM doesn't start the clock - for most plans, the validity period begins when the eSIM first connects to a network in Africa. Install it while you still have Wi-Fi at home, then just turn on data roaming when you land.
Right after checkout we email your eSIM and installation instructions. You install it by tapping the link in that email, then turn on data roaming for that eSIM once you arrive in Africa. You can also find it any time in My account.
Coverage varies by plan - tap any Africa plan above to see its full list of covered countries before you buy. Your eSIM works in any of them without needing to switch plans as you cross borders.
Start by turning Airplane mode on for 10 seconds and back off, and check that Data Roaming is on for the Telisco line and any VPN is off. If it is still slow, the usual cause is the phone sitting on a slower local network, so choose one by hand instead of leaving it on Automatic (iPhone: Settings > Cellular > your Telisco line > Network Selection; Android: Settings > Network & internet > SIMs > your eSIM > Automatically select network). Also check you are not locked to 3G: set Voice & Data to 5G Auto or LTE. Wait about 30 seconds after each change before testing. Please do not delete the eSIM, it will not help and most plans can only be installed once. If every network is slow it is the coverage where you are standing rather than the eSIM, and our team will troubleshoot it with the operator if you contact us.
Your phone needs to be eSIM-compatible and carrier-unlocked. Most phones from the last few years qualify, including iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, and recent Samsung Galaxy models. On iPhone, check Settings → General → About for an EID number - if you see one, it supports eSIM.
Telisco eSIMs are data-only. You can use internet while keeping your regular number active for calls and SMS on your primary SIM.
You can top up your existing eSIM in seconds from My account - no need to install a new one. The extra data is added to the same eSIM and available right away.

We offer a variety of data packages with different durations, allowing you to choose the plan that best suits your needs. Our eSIMs install in one tap from the link in your email, with nothing to type. We connect you to the strongest available local network in Africa, ensuring seamless connectivity. Our data-only eSIMs allow you to use internet while keeping your regular number active for calls and SMS. Top up your existing eSIM in seconds if you run out of data.
