South America - eSIM Data Plans

South America rewards travelers willing to go the distance — from the Inca trail in Peru to the glaciers of Patagonia, the beaches of Rio, the wineries of Mendoza and the Galápagos islands of Ecuador. Our South America (LATAM) bundle covers Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Mexico, Peru and Uruguay under a single eSIM, so a multi-country itinerary down the Andes or up the Atlantic coast runs on one plan. Whether you're a digital nomad based in Medellín, a backpacker hopping between Cusco and La Paz, or a business traveler shuttling between São Paulo and Buenos Aires, you stay connected the entire way.

Across South America our bundle uses major operators including Claro, Vivo, TIM and Oi in Brazil; Movistar, Personal and Claro in Argentina; Entel, Movistar and WOM in Chile; Claro and Movistar in Colombia and Peru; and Telcel and Movistar in Mexico. 4G LTE is strong in capital cities and along main highways and tourist corridors — Rio, São Paulo, Buenos Aires, Santiago, Lima, Bogotá, Medellín, Quito and Mexico City all enjoy excellent speeds, with 5G expanding rapidly. Coverage thins in the Amazon basin, deep Patagonia and remote Andean valleys, but for the routes most travelers actually take, connectivity is solid. Your device picks the best local carrier automatically as you move between countries.

Many South American countries require local ID, a tax number (Brazil's CPF, Mexico's RFC), or in-person registration to buy a SIM card — a real barrier for tourists who just want to use Maps and Uber. A regional eSIM sidesteps every one of those requirements. Install the QR code before you fly, land at any major airport in the region, and your phone is online instantly. Cross from Argentina into Chile by bus, fly from Lima to Bogotá, or take the ferry from Colonia to Buenos Aires — your data stays with you the whole way, no swapping required.

Latin America has its share of countries where you'd rather not hand over a passport scan and a local address just to get online. nadanada requires nothing — no KYC, no email, no phone number, no account. Pay with Bitcoin Lightning, Monero, stablecoins, credit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and the QR code arrives instantly. Crypto payments in particular are a great fit for the region, where many travelers and locals already prefer settling in stablecoins. No middlemen, no data harvesting, no surprise charges.

Distances in South America are deceptively large — a Patagonia road trip or an Amazon riverboat journey can eat through gigabytes of map data. For a one-to-two week city-focused trip, 5–10 GB usually suffices; for longer overland adventures or remote work from a beach in Brazil, look at 15–20 GB. Download offline maps for areas where coverage is unreliable. The bundle covers the most-visited countries in the region, but if Bolivia, Paraguay, Venezuela or the Guianas are on your route, check the country list on this page. Validity starts the first time you connect in the region.
