Explore the magic of the African continent without losing touch with the world. With our Regional Africa eSIM, you ensure reliable mobile internet across the region's most key countries. Forget about high roaming bills and the tedious search for local SIM cards at airports. Whether you are on safari in Kenya, exploring the pyramids in Egypt, or on a business trip to Nigeria, your digital SIM connects you instantly to the leading local operators.
An eSIM (Electronic SIM) is a modern digital technology built directly into your smartphone.

This is the ideal solution for travelers visiting multiple destinations or those who simply want a secure connection the moment their plane touches down on the continent.

Our packages are carefully selected to provide connectivity in the continent's most important economic and tourist hubs.

In addition to specialized plans for Africa, HandySIM offers large-scale solutions for other continents. Explore our regional packages for Europe, Asia, North America, and Latin America—the ideal choice for having internet everywhere with a single active profile.
Installation is entirely digital and easy. After purchase, you will receive a QR code to scan in your phone's settings. We recommend doing this before departure while you have a stable Wi-Fi connection, so you can connect to the network immediately upon landing on the continent.
Yes, a stable connection (Wi-Fi or mobile data) is required for the initial download of the eSIM profile. Once installed, the HandySIM plan activates automatically as soon as you enter the range of mobile networks in any of the supported African countries.
Yes, this is the main advantage of the Africa regional package. The profile will automatically recognize the new partner network when crossing the border (e.g., from Egypt to Morocco) without needing to change your settings or buy new cards.
In major cities and tourist centers, you will enjoy a stable 4G/LTE connection. In more remote safari areas or national parks, the signal may vary, but your eSIM always automatically searches for and connects to the best available signal from local operators.
Since you are using a regional service that operates through international partner networks, the "Data Roaming" option for your eSIM profile must be turned on. This will not result in charges from your home provider as you are using your prepaid HandySIM package.
In areas with weak signals (such as deserts or remote coasts), the phone uses more power to search for a network. We recommend turning off mobile data when not in use in such zones to conserve battery life during long journeys.
Yes, our Africa plans support the "Personal Hotspot" function. You can easily share internet from your smartphone to a laptop, tablet, or your companions' devices, which is extremely convenient when reliable Wi-Fi is unavailable in hotels.
