Senegal travel data eSIM

What is a Senegal eSIM?

A Senegal eSIM gives travelers a ready‑to‑use data‑only connection the moment they land in Dakar, Saint‑Louis or elsewhere in the country. You load the profile at home, keep your regular SIM for calls, and then switch to the eSIM for maps, translation, ride‑hailing and local apps while exploring Senegal’s coastal cities, historic sites and vibrant markets.

In Senegal the eSIM connects to the Free 4G network. Data is drawn from the selected bundle – 1 GB for a week, or 3 GB to 20 GB for a month – and you can use it for navigation, streaming, booking tickets and online banking as you move around the country.

Local networks

Which networks you connect to in Senegal

When you activate the eSIM in Senegal it links to Free’s 4G infrastructure. The actual reach of service depends on Free’s network deployment in each area you visit, so you’ll have mobile data wherever the operator’s towers are present.

Free 4G

5 plans are available for Senegal, from $5.90 up to $76.90. Every plan is data only, delivered by QR code, and starts counting when you connect on arrival.

Questions people actually ask

If yours is not here, write to us — we answer within 24 hours.

Which operator does the Senegal eSIM use and what does that mean for a traveller?

The eSIM runs on Free’s 4G network. For travellers this provides a single, familiar network environment, so you can rely on the same data plan throughout Senegal without needing to switch carriers.

Can I use the Senegal eSIM in a neighbouring country, such as Mauritania?

No, the plan is limited to Senegal. If you need connectivity in Mauritania or other nearby nations, consider a regional multi‑country eSIM option that covers several borders.

Which plan size suits a trip that includes both Dakar and Saint‑Louis?

As a rough guide, the 3 GB 30‑day bundle often covers a week‑long stay in two major cities, while the 5 GB or 10 GB options provide extra margin for additional navigation and streaming needs.

Will I lose my own phone number?

No. Your physical SIM stays in the phone and keeps your number for calls and WhatsApp. The eSIM only carries data, so both work side by side.

When does my plan start counting down?

When the eSIM first connects to a network at your destination — not when you buy it. So you can install it days before you fly without losing any time.

Is my phone compatible?

Most phones from 2018 onwards are: iPhone XS and later, Google Pixel 3 and later, Samsung Galaxy S20 and later. Your phone also has to be carrier-unlocked. Dial *#06# — if an EID appears, you have eSIM. Full list on our Device Compatibility page.

How fast will I get my QR code?

Usually within a couple of minutes of payment, by email. If it has not arrived, check spam first, then write to us and we will resend it immediately.

Can I use hotspot or tethering?

Yes, on every plan we sell. Share the connection with a laptop, a tablet or the rest of your group.

What if I change my mind?

If you have not installed the eSIM, you get a full refund within 180 days. Once a profile is activated and data has been used it cannot be refunded — the allowance is consumed from the network. Full detail in our Refund Policy.

Do you sell plans for groups?

Yes. For Umrah and Hajj groups, student trips and tour operators we deliver the QR codes as a single batch before departure, at group rates. Email us with your group size and destination.
