536 of these 891 plans were checked against the seller's own shop on 16 October 2026. The rest come from the seller's own feed or plan pages and are not yet independently checked.
The Watchdog Pick is chosen automatically: the lowest real price per GB of the 891 plans in this view. Bulk data pools above 50 GB cannot win it, because their per GB rate only exists if you use data no traveller uses. Providers cannot pay for it, and a commission never changes the ranking. Prices are shown in USD and can change at checkout.
Price per GB counts only data you can use inside the validity, at most 3 GB a day, so a big pool on a short validity cannot buy the top spot. Every provider's best two plans come first, then the rest. A plan marked Unverified price undercuts every other provider here by more than half and waits at the end until we have checked it on the seller's site. How we rank
Unlimited rows show the daily amount at full speed. Some rows also show the speed after that amount. A row with no speed does not mean the plan stays fast, so check the plan on the seller's site.
Some links here earn us a commission. It never changes the order. How we make money The row marked Sponsored is a paid placement shown above the ranking, not part of it. Advertise here.

Cheapest eSIM for Senegal: the numbers
As of 16 October 2026, 06:08 GMT, the cheapest eSIM for Senegal is Wanderly with 50 GB for 30 Days at $30.99. That is $0.62 per GB, the best rate of the 891 plans we compare from 56 providers. 358 support top ups. That timestamp is the exact moment of our latest price check, and the table above always shows the live order.
Which is the best eSIM for Senegal?
There is no single best eSIM for Senegal, because the right plan depends on how long you stay and how much data you use. What we can do is rank the 891 plans on the numbers, as they stand on 16 October 2026:
- Best value overall Wanderly, 50 GB for 30 Days at $30.99. That is $0.62 per GB, the lowest real rate of every Senegal plan we track.
- Best for a short trip AlpineSIM, 1 GB for 7 Days at $3.24. The cheapest ticket that still gives you at least 1 GB for a week or less.
- Highest daily cap on an unlimited plan Roamix, 365 Days at $11,185.80, full speed up to 10 GB a day. Set that daily cap against the fixed plan above before you pay for the word unlimited.
None of these picks is chosen by a person. Each one is the first row of a sort on live prices, so it changes whenever a provider moves a price, and Wanderly did not pay to be named here.
Which mobile networks does Senegal have?
Orange has the widest footprint and was the only operator with 3G in every one of Senegal's 45 departments, while Free has been investing 217 million US dollars to reach 96% 3G and 90% 4G coverage.
- Orange: Orange, run by Sonatel, leads Senegal with about 56% of the market and was rated the fastest mobile network in the country in Ookla's Speedtest report for the second half of 2024.
- Yas (Free): Yas Senegal, formerly Free and before that Tigo, holds around 24% of the market, is majority owned by Axian Group, and runs a 4G+ network covering Dakar and most regional capitals.
- Expresso: Expresso is the third operator with about 17% of the market and historically the thinnest coverage outside Dakar and a handful of regional cities.
Promobile is Senegal's main MVNO with around 5% of the market, but travel eSIMs normally connect through Orange or Free.
The eSIM plans we compare on this page connect to:
The list above is Senegal's operator market. The badges are the networks our tracked plans actually roam onto, which can be a subset of it, and the same network is sometimes sold to roaming partners under a different brand name. So a guide praising an operator you do not see badged here is describing a local SIM, not the travel eSIMs compared above.
Is 5G available in Senegal?
Sonatel launched fixed 5G in March 2024 and mobile 5G in July 2024, and Yas also holds a 5G concession. Service is concentrated in and around Dakar for now.
How much data do you need in Senegal?
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 Senegal right now:
Are unlimited eSIMs for Senegal really unlimited?
Not always. 316 of the 891 plans above are sold as unlimited, and most of them carry a daily fair use cap. A further 6 plans are unlimited in a different way: one capped speed for the whole plan, shown next to the word Unlimited in the table. For Senegal the caps we can see published are 0.5 to 10 GB a day: past that the speed drops, often to 1 Mbps or less, until the clock resets. That is fine for messages and maps, slow for video. At $0.62 per GB from Wanderly, a fixed plan often works out cheaper than unlimited unless you genuinely burn several GB a day. That is why we rank by price per GB and not by the word on the label.
Here is what each seller on this page actually allows per day before it slows you down. No seller publishes this next to its rivals, which is exactly why it is worth showing.
Every seller that publishes a daily allowance is listed on our daily data caps page, with the cheapest plan at each one. The gap between the top and bottom of that table is the whole point. Two plans both sold as unlimited can differ several times over in what you actually get at full speed, and the cheaper one is not always the smaller allowance.
eSIM or a local SIM card at the airport in Senegal?
An eSIM is ready before you land. No queue, no shop, no handing over your passport at a counter for a tourist SIM card. Data for Senegal starts at $1.23 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 Senegal eSIM
Pick the plan, not the brandThe cheapest rate in Senegal today is $0.62 per GB from Wanderly, against a median of $4.75. The QR code arrives by email within minutes of paying.
Install before you flyScan the QR code on wifi at home. Installation needs a connection, and the one thing you will not have when you land in Senegal is a working connection.
Turn it on when you landEnable the eSIM and turn on data roaming for it, then give it a minute to attach to Free, Orange, SONATEL, Yas Senegal. Expect 4G.
Know what happens when it runs out358 of the 891 plans here can be topped up, so running out is not the end of the trip. If you would rather over buy than top up, the cheapest plan with at least 5 GB is Wanderly at $9.99.
Good to know before you land in Senegal
SIM registration has been mandatory since 2013 and is strictly enforced, with millions of unregistered SIMs cut off in 2016. Expect to show your passport and possibly give a fingerprint.
There are two Orange boutiques on the right just after you exit customs at Blaise Diagne International Airport. A basic SIM, called a puce, costs about 1,000 CFA with the same amount of credit, and staff link it to your ID.
Orange is the safe pick if you travel beyond Dakar, since its rural coverage is far ahead of the other two. Data passes are activated with #1234# and monthly passes include an extra night data allowance.
Senegal Travel eSIM FAQ
Everything you need to know about using an eSIM in Senegal
What is the cheapest eSIM for Senegal?
Right now the cheapest option ranked by price per GB is Wanderly with 50 GB for 30 Days at $30.99. That works out to $0.62 per GB. Prices change often, so the table above is re-sorted at every price check.
Which is the best eSIM for Senegal?
It depends on the trip, so we rank rather than pick a favourite. On today's prices the best value for Senegal is Wanderly at $0.62 per GB, the lowest real rate of the 891 plans we compare. For heavy daily use there are 316 unlimited plans, most with a daily fair use cap, and they only win if you genuinely burn several GB a day.

Is eSIM available in Senegal?
Yes. We track 891 prepaid travel eSIM plans from 56 providers that work in Senegal, roaming onto Free, Orange, SONATEL, Yas Senegal. You need a phone that supports eSIM and is not locked to a carrier; most iPhones from the XS onward and most flagship Android phones from 2019 on qualify.
Which networks will my eSIM connect to in Senegal?
The plans we compare connect to Free, Orange, SONATEL, Yas Senegal. The exact network depends on the plan you pick. Check the plan details before you buy if one network matters to you.
Do Senegal eSIMs support 5G?
The networks our plans use in Senegal currently run on 4G. That is enough for maps, messaging, video calls, and streaming in most cases.
Can I buy a Senegal eSIM online before I travel?
Yes, and you should. Every plan on this page is sold online and delivered by email as a QR code within minutes. Install it on wifi at home, leave the line switched off, and turn on data roaming for it when you land in Senegal. The validity clock on most plans only starts when the eSIM first connects.
Can I top up my Senegal eSIM if I run out?
Yes. 358 of the 891 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.
Is an eSIM cheaper than a local SIM card in Senegal?
For a trip of days or weeks, usually yes. Data for Senegal starts at $1.23 for 100 MB on this page, with no queue, no shop and no passport handed over at a counter. A local SIM card can still win if you stay for months or need a local phone number.
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.
Does a Senegal eSIM work on iPhone and Android?
Yes, on any carrier unlocked phone with eSIM support: iPhone XS or newer, Google Pixel 3 or newer, Samsung Galaxy S20 or newer and most recent flagships. The plans are identical on both; only the install steps differ, and both take about a minute on wifi.
How many GB do I need for a week in Senegal?
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 Wanderly at $9.99.
Which Senegal eSIM gives the most data per day?
Of the plans sold as unlimited here, Roamix allows the most at full speed, 10 GB a day from $36.60. The smallest allowance on this page is 500 MB a day, from 6 sellers. Every one of them is advertised as unlimited, and past the daily allowance the speed drops, often to 1 Mbps or less, until the next day. Check the allowance, not the word.
