Solid overall, just wish there was a bit more data for the price.

Install took me two tries but was fine after that. Activation was automatic when I arrived.

How much does the Botswana eSIM cost?

The Botswana 10GB/Day plan costs $40.85 for 10 GB/day over 1 days, paid once with no hidden fees.

How do I activate my Botswana eSIM?

Scan the QR code in your phone settings (Cellular/Mobile → Add eSIM) or tap Install in the GotoeSIM app. Install on Wi-Fi before your trip; it activates when you arrive in Botswana.
