An Africa Unlimited Data Plan is a prepaid mobile data package that gives you unlimited data access across supported countries in the region for your selected plan duration. Available plan levels include Standard, Premium, and Ultra. Each plan includes a high-speed allowance based on the selected plan level, followed by continued data at reduced speeds under our Fair Usage, Activation & Expiry Policy.
Africa Unlimited Data Plans work with an active WraptelDataSIM eSIM or physical SIM Card. Once purchased, your plan can be added through your WraptelDataSIM account and assigned to your active eSIM or SIM Card.
If you do not already have an active WraptelDataSIM eSIM or SIM Card, start with an International Data eSIM or International Data SIM Card, then add your Africa Unlimited Data Plan from your online account.
Most Africa Unlimited Data Plan assignments are completed within minutes during business hours, but please allow up to 12 hours in rare cases.

Unlimited Data Packages
The Unlimited Data Packages will be counting continuously once activated in your device. Inserting the Data SIM Card in your device or turning the eSIM 'ON' will begin the consumption period of the Unlimited Data package.
For example, if the data plan that is purchased is a Europe - Unlimited Data 5 day package, and the Data SIM is activated in your device on 1 Oct 2018 (10am; GMT+8), the expiry date will be 6 Oct 2018 (10am; GMT+8). Every 24 hours will be counted as 1 day.
Yes, the SIM card is compatible with mobile hotspots, including WIFI and MIFI routers.
Please note that Wraptel only provides support for the SIM card itself, not the hardware. A basic understanding of how to configure your device settings is required. The Data SIM will not automatically populate the settings in routers or hotspots; these settings must be manually configured. Additionally, some routers may reduce the internet speed, which is outside of our control.
To ensure proper functionality, the device should be set up with the following configurations:
