Zimbabwe eSIM FAQ

What is a Zimbabwe eSIM?

A Zimbabwe eSIM is a digital SIM with a mobile data plan for Zimbabwe. You install it by scanning a QR code — no plastic SIM needed. Plans run from 1 to 1 days, starting at $168.99.

When should I install my Zimbabwe eSIM?

Install it a day or two before you leave, while you're on Wi-Fi.

When does the package start?

It depends on the plan. Check “Activation” in each plan's details before you buy.

Does the Zimbabwe eSIM support 5G?

Yes, all Zimbabwe plans support 5G where the local network offers it and your phone supports it. Elsewhere it connects over LTE.

Can I use hotspot?

The provider hasn't confirmed hotspot support for these plans, so we don't promise it.

Can I keep my WhatsApp number?

Yes. WhatsApp stays linked to your usual number — the eSIM only provides data. Keep your home SIM installed (it can stay switched on for calls and texts).

Does the eSIM include calls?

No. Zimbabwe plans are data-only and don't come with a phone number. You can still call over apps like WhatsApp or FaceTime where they're allowed.

Which network will I use?

Your eSIM can use Econet Wireless Private Limited. Your phone connects to an available partner network automatically — you don't need to choose.

Can I get a refund?

If the eSIM hasn't been installed or activated, you can usually get a refund. Technical problems are always looked at individually. See our refund policy for details.

How do I know whether my phone supports eSIM?

Most recent iPhones, Pixels and Galaxy phones do, but the phone must also be carrier-unlocked. Check our device compatibility page or look for “Add eSIM” in your phone's settings.
