eSIM El Salvador: Data only
eSIM El Salvador: Movistar. Data only; rechargeable. From $6.00.
Plan around the way you use your phone
A return home can involve plenty of arrangements: checking messages, looking things up and coordinating with family. Chivo lets you budget that internet use with a fixed allowance or compare an unlimited package. This El Salvador selection serves data needs on an eSIM, rather than adding balance to an existing telephone number. Decide which of those jobs you need the purchase to do before comparing amounts.
Compare a week with a month
The fixed menu pairs 1 GB with 7 days and 2 GB with 15 days. A 30-day stay has four fixed possibilities: 3 GB, 5 GB, 10 GB or 20 GB. Unlimited versions instead run for 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 and 30 days. Look at both the GB amount and expiry window; a larger data allowance is useful only if it matches the way you intend to use it.
Is Chivo on Movistar, and does it include calls?
Chivo is the eSIM product, with Movistar 4G named as its host network. The packages contain no voice minutes or texts and do not supply a local number. Current retail prices fall between $6.00 and $99.00 USD. If you are comparing this with helping somebody who already has a local line, El Salvador mobile credit is listed separately.
What starts Chivo's validity after installation?
An eSIM-capable device must also be carrier-unlocked. Once that is confirmed, QR installation provides the setup method. You may organize the purchase from anywhere; Chivo does not list identity verification as a requirement. The first network connection begins validity. Rechargeability is enabled, meaning that another data allowance can be added to the same eSIM if the original amount no longer fits your needs.
Questions about this eSIM
What distinguishes the four monthly fixed plans?
Their validity is the same at 30 days; the included data changes from 3 GB through 20 GB.
Can Chivo handle an ordinary phone call?
No voice allowance is listed. These packages provide internet data, not a bundle of regular calls and SMS.
Is a five-day unlimited plan offered?
Yes. Five days is one of the six unlimited durations in this catalog.
What should I set up before traveling to El Salvador?
Use the QR to install Chivo while preparing the phone for departure. After arrival, set mobile data to that eSIM and allow data roaming for it. The handset must support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked.
Can I recharge the Chivo eSIM with more data?
Yes. Chivo supports additional data on the existing eSIM. Look at the available recharge package when deciding how much more internet you need.
