What eSIM should I get for Cabo Verde?
Start with two questions: how long you will stay, and how much you use your phone. Every plan for Cabo Verde has a set amount of data and a set number of days, so you pick the pair that matches your trip. Validity runs from 1 to 30 days, and data goes up to 20 GB.
- Short stay or stopover: a small plan covers maps, messages and ride details. A short plan with a few days of validity keeps things simple.
- A week by the sea: a mid-size plan leaves room for photos, calls over apps and checking bookings.
- Longer trips or heavy use: choose a plan with more data and the longest validity.
Prices start at USD 9.18. If you run low, you can check the data left and top up instead of buying a new eSIM.

Which phones work with a travel eSIM?
You need an eSIM-compatible phone that is unlocked. Most recent iPhone models and many Android phones support it, but it varies by model and by where the phone was bought. Look up your model on our list of phones that support eSIM before you pay.
Keeping your usual number

Cabo Verde eSIM FAQs
- What eSIM should I get for Cabo Verde?
- Match the plan to your trip length and how much data you use. Plans for Cabo Verde offer up to 20 GB of data, with validity from 1 to 30 days. If you are unsure, start smaller: you can top up later.
- Do I need a local SIM card in Cabo Verde?
- No. With an Ahlano eSIM you install your data plan on your phone before you travel, so there is no shop to find when you arrive. You only need an eSIM-compatible, unlocked phone.
- What are the downsides of using an eSIM?

- After you pay, you get a QR code and a one-tap install link. Install it while you are on Wi-Fi, then turn on the eSIM for mobile data when you land.
