What travellers usually ask
For a short trip, many travellers can manage with 3GB to 10GB if they mainly use maps, messaging, email and browsing. Choose a larger plan if you use hotspot, video calls or streaming.
An eSIM can often be cheaper than standard roaming and gives you a separate travel data plan for Costa Rica without changing your physical SIM.
Yes. WhatsApp, iMessage, FaceTime, email and other apps work normally as long as your eSIM plan has mobile data available.
Yes. Your phone must support eSIM and be network unlocked. If your device is locked to one network, a travel eSIM may not connect.
This depends on the provider. Many travel eSIMs start when they first connect to a supported network, but some may start after installation or purchase. Always check the plan details before buying.
Many eSIM plans support hotspot, but it depends on the provider and plan. If hotspot is important for laptops or sharing data, check the plan details before purchasing.
Unlimited plans may include a fair-use policy, such as a daily high-speed allowance. After that limit, speeds may be reduced until the allowance resets.
Some providers allow top-ups, while others require buying another plan. If you think you may need more data, choose a plan with top-up support or a larger allowance.
