Why use an eSIM in Niger
- Cheaper than roaming
- Carrier roaming bills a daily fee whether you use data or not. A prepaid plan bills once, upfront.
- Working the moment you land
- No hunting for a shop, no passport registration, no airport queue at midnight.
- Your number stays yours
- Dual SIM keeps calls, texts, and WhatsApp on your home line while data rides on Jelly.

Turn off data roaming on your home line so your carrier cannot bill you.
Niger eSIM questions
When does my Niger plan start counting?
Validity starts when the eSIM first connects to a network in Niger, not when you buy it. Installing early costs you nothing.
Can I make calls in Niger?
Jelly plans are data plans. Calls work over WhatsApp, FaceTime, or any app you already use, and your home number stays reachable on your other SIM.
Can I tether a laptop in Niger?
Yes on most compatible phones. Tethering uses data quickly, so pick a larger plan if a laptop is coming with you.
What if I run out of data in Niger?
Top up from your dashboard. The top up applies to the eSIM already installed, so there is nothing new to scan.
