As of 31 August 2026, 15:21 GMT, the cheapest eSIM for Niger is GigSky with 50 GB for 180 Days at $169.99. That is $3.40 per GB, the best rate of the 89 plans we compare from 9 providers. 36 support top ups.

Which mobile networks does Niger have?
Mobile connections were equivalent to 60.1 percent of the population in January 2025, per DataReportal, and only 23.2 percent of people were online. Coverage centres on Niamey and drops off sharply outside the cities.
- Airtel Niger: The network with the broadest reach, including the most usable 4G in Niamey.
- Zamani Telecom: The rebranded former Orange Niger network, which inherited Orange's infrastructure and performs respectably in the capital.
- Moov Africa Niger: Competitive on price and workable in Niamey, though coverage thins toward the outskirts.
- Niger Telecom: The state owned operator, a smaller player alongside the three private networks.
The eSIM plans we compare on this page connect to:
Is 5G available in Niger?
There is no 5G service in Niger. 4G LTE is the fastest option and it is mainly a Niamey feature, with speeds in the single digit to low double digit Mbps range.
How much data do you need in Niger?
Light use is about 500 MB a day. That covers maps, messages, and some browsing. Normal use with photos, social apps, and short videos runs 1 to 1.5 GB a day. Streaming and hotspot use can eat 2 to 3 GB a day. Here is what each size costs in Niger right now:
Are unlimited eSIMs for Niger really unlimited?
Not always. 12 of the plans above are sold as unlimited. Most unlimited travel plans have a fair use rule. You get full speed for a daily amount, often 1 to 5 GB, then the speed drops to around 1 Mbps until the next day. That is fine for messages and maps but slow for video. If you know how much data you use, a fixed plan with a low price per GB is usually the better deal. That is why we rank by price per GB and not by labels.
eSIM or a local SIM at the airport in Niger?
An eSIM is ready before you land. No queue, no shop, no handing over your passport at a counter. Data for Niger starts at $169.99 on this page, which is hard for airport kiosks to beat. A local SIM still makes sense if you need a local phone number or plan to stay for months. For a normal trip, the eSIM wins on price and effort.
Setting up your Niger eSIM
Buy your planYou get a QR code by email within minutes of paying.
Install before you flyScan the QR code on wifi at home. Airport and hotel wifi can be weak.
Turn it on when you landEnable the eSIM and turn on data roaming for it, then give it a minute to find the network.
Check the validity clockSome plans start counting at purchase, not at first use. Check before you buy.
Good to know before you land in Niger
Niger requires KYC registration for all SIM activations, so bring your passport and allow 15 to 30 minutes. Since the July 2023 coup the authorities have suspended foreign broadcasters such as RFI and France 24 and tightened control of the information space, per Human Rights Watch.
Diori Hamani International Airport in Niamey has carrier kiosks in the arrivals area, but they keep limited hours and are not always staffed for late evening flights.
Load an eSIM before arrival as a backup, then pick up an Airtel SIM at an official shop in central Niamey once settled. Do not count on the airport kiosks being open.
Niger Travel eSIM FAQ
Everything you need to know about using an eSIM in Niger
What is the cheapest eSIM for Niger?
Right now the cheapest option ranked by price per GB is GigSky with 50 GB for 180 Days at $169.99. That works out to $3.40 per GB. Prices change often, so the table above always shows the current order.
Which networks will my eSIM connect to in Niger?
The plans we compare connect to Airtel, Orange. The exact network depends on the plan you pick. Check the plan details before you buy if one network matters to you.
Do Niger eSIMs support 5G?
The networks our plans use in Niger currently run on 4G. That is enough for maps, messaging, video calls, and streaming in most cases.
Can I top up my Niger eSIM if I run out?
Yes. 36 of the 89 plans here support top ups, so you can add data without buying a new eSIM. The rest need a fresh plan once the data ends.
Will I still receive bank SMS and OTP codes?
Yes, if you keep your home SIM active. Travel eSIMs are data only. Your phone can hold both at once, so leave your normal SIM on for SMS and use the eSIM for data. Turn off roaming data on the home SIM to avoid charges.
Do these eSIMs include a phone number or calls?
The plans we compare are data only, so there is no local number. Calls work fine over WhatsApp, FaceTime, or any app that uses data. If you need a real local number, a local SIM is the better tool.
How many GB do I need for a week in Niger?
Around 3 to 5 GB covers a week of maps, messaging, and normal browsing. Heavy video or hotspot use needs 1 to 2 GB per day. Today the cheapest plan with at least 5 GB is Saily at $18.49.
