TravelNet, the best eSIM for South America
The South America eSIM is the ideal way to stay connected during your travels across South America. Unlike physical SIM cards, the eSIM is a virtual SIM built into your smartphone: it connects you to the best local networks throughout South America without buying a SIM card in each country you visit.
The eSIM works through an electronic chip soldered into your phone. After purchase, you receive a QR code by email: simply scan it to install the eSIM profile containing your data plan. Activation is instant and you're connected as soon as you arrive in Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires, or any other destination. eSIM technology is compatible with most recent smartphones (iPhone XS and later, Google Pixel 3+, Samsung Galaxy S20+).
Choosing a TravelNet eSIM for South America offers many advantages over traditional roaming. Carriers charge often prohibitive roaming fees across South America. With TravelNet, you get transparent, fixed pricing with no surprises on your bill, plus 4G/5G coverage on Vivo, Claro, Movistar and TIM Brasil networks.
One major benefit of our South America eSIM is multi-country coverage. You can travel between Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Peru on a single eSIM, with the connection switching automatically to the best partner network based on your location — at no extra cost and with no reconfiguration.
Activation is instant: you receive your QR code in under 2 minutes after purchase. Install the profile at home on Wi-Fi before departure, then activate it at your destination. No more hunting for a store at the airport or standing in line. You also keep your number and WhatsApp: the TravelNet eSIM provides data only, so your calls and messages stay tied to your usual line.
Whether you're going on holiday, on a business trip, or for nomadic remote work, the TravelNet South America eSIM guarantees a reliable, affordable, and instant connection. Our plans suit every use case, from short stays to long-term travel, with limited or unlimited data depending on your needs.
TravelNet eSIM South America offers extensive coverage across 13+ countries. Whether you travel for tourism, business, or remote work, you get 4G and 5G connectivity on the best local networks in each destination. Here are the main countries covered by our South America eSIM plans.
This coverage makes the TravelNet South America eSIM a complete solution for exploring the region seamlessly. Whether you plan to stay in a single city like Rio de Janeiro or follow an itinerary across several countries, you stay connected everywhere. Our partner networks (Vivo, Claro, Movistar and TIM Brasil) are selected for reliability and performance.
The right data plan for South America depends on the length of your stay, your daily internet usage, and whether you need to work remotely. Here's a simple guide to choose the ideal data amount for your TravelNet South America eSIM.
| Trip duration | Recommended data |
|---|---|
| 3 days | 1 à 3 Go |
| 1 week | 5 Go |
| 2 weeks | 10 Go |
| Remote work | 20 Go+ ou illimité |
For remote work or frequent video calls, choose an unlimited plan or at least 20 GB (Zoom and Teams use about 1 GB per hour). For moderate use (social media, messaging, browsing, GPS), 5 GB per week is usually enough. You can always share your connection via hotspot. With TravelNet, no hidden fees: the displayed price is the final price.
Your TravelNet eSIM lets you use all your favorite apps during your South America trip. Here's how to get the most out of your mobile connection on the ground.
Google Maps and Maps.me are essential for finding your way around Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires, Santiago and Lima. With your South America eSIM, real-time navigation, place search, and transit directions work perfectly. Download offline maps on Wi-Fi before leaving to save data.
Instagram, TikTok, Facebook: share your best South America moments in real time. Posting stories and photos uses little data, but choose a 10 GB or unlimited plan if you post a lot of videos.
WhatsApp, Messenger, and Telegram stay tied to your usual number thanks to the data eSIM. Video calls, voice messages, and file sharing work without limits. It's the ideal tool to stay in touch with loved ones during your South America trip.
More and more travelers combine South America with remote work. Slack, Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, and Notion all work seamlessly. For remote work, choose an unlimited or 20 GB+ plan and use the hotspot to connect your laptop.
Netflix, YouTube, Spotify: enjoy your favorite content during transfers. Video streaming uses about 1 GB per hour in HD — an unlimited plan is recommended if you watch a lot of video during your South America stay.
Booking.com, Airbnb, Uber, and translation apps (Google Translate, DeepL) are accessible at any time. Photo translation is invaluable for deciphering menus and signs in South America, and last-minute booking always gives you a backup plan.
Whether you're a tourist, business traveler, or digital nomad, your TravelNet South America eSIM gives you the freedom to stay connected just like at home. No more hunting for Wi-Fi in every café or hotel: your data connection follows you everywhere in the region.
