Which network does the Nicaragua eSIM use?

It connects to Claro’s 4G network in Nicaragua.

Does the Nicaragua eSIM include calls and texts?

No. The eSIM provides mobile data only, so calls and texts are not included.

How much data can I get for Nicaragua?

Plans include 0.1GB, 0.5GB, 1GB, 3GB, 5GB, 10GB and 20GB, as well as an unlimited data option.

How long do Nicaragua eSIM plans last?

Available durations are 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, 15 and 30 days.

Can I top up my Nicaragua eSIM?

Yes. You can top up the eSIM if you need more data during your trip.

Nicaragua: is an eSIM better than a local SIM?

For most travellers, yes. A local SIM in Nicaragua means finding a shop once you have landed, usually with ID in hand, and it leaves you on a single carrier. An eSimHero eSIM installs before you travel, works the moment you arrive, connects across the networks we carry there, and leaves your usual number active on the same phone.

- Claro4G
Coverage & networks
The eSIM connects to Claro’s 4G network in Nicaragua. It is data-only, so calls and texts are not included. Available allowances range from 0.1GB to 20GB, with unlimited data also available.
How much data you need
For lighter use, 0.1GB, 0.5GB or 1GB may suit short trips and occasional messaging. Larger allowances of 3GB, 5GB, 10GB or 20GB are available if you expect to use maps, social media or streaming more often. Unlimited data is also an option.
Setting it up
Choose a plan for between one and 30 days, then follow the eSIM setup instructions. If you use your allowance before the plan ends, you can top up rather than buying a new plan.
