Choosing an eSIM for Côte d'Ivoire

Every plan for Côte d'Ivoire is prepaid, so you see the full price before you pay and nothing is added later. You can pick from 9 plans starting at USD 9.06. The largest gives you 20 GB, and validity runs from 1 to 30 days.

A simple way to choose is to match the plan to how you use your phone:

  • Short stay, light use: maps, messages and a few emails fit a smaller plan over a week.
  • Longer trip: if you will be there for several weeks, a plan that lasts up to 30 days saves you from topping up too often.
  • Heavier use: video calls, photo uploads and hotspot sharing go faster, so the 20 GB plan gives you more room.

If you run low, you can check the data left and top up from your account.

eSIM Côte d'Ivoire reviews: what travellers want to know

Most people reading reviews ask the same things: will it work on my phone, how hard is it to install, and what happens when the data runs out. Your phone must support eSIM and be unlocked. You can confirm this on our list of phones that support eSIM before you buy.

Installation takes a few minutes, and once the plan is active you use mobile data as you would at home. Your usual SIM can stay in the phone for calls and texts if you wish, while the eSIM handles your data.

How to install your eSIM before you land

  1. Pick your plan for Côte d'Ivoire and pay by card or Apple Pay.
  2. Open the QR code or the one-tap install link we send you.
  3. Add the eSIM in your phone settings on iPhone or Android, ideally while you still have Wi-Fi at home.
  4. When you arrive, switch data to the eSIM and turn on data roaming for that line.

Doing the setup before you fly means you are online as soon as the plane lands, ready to message family or book a ride.
