Networks and coverage in Botswana
Plans for Botswana connect through local networks — Local network, Mascom, Orange — so your data runs on a domestic carrier, not expensive home-roaming. Cities and tourist areas usually have solid coverage; rural stretches can drop off, and that's normal on every network. Where the infrastructure supports it you'll get 5G; elsewhere the phone falls back to 4G/LTE automatically. Most plans allow hotspot sharing — check the label on the plan card.
What coverage looks like in Africa
Safari and nature trips — don't rely on network alone; download routes in advance.
How do you install and activate?
Install the eSIM on Wi‑Fi before your flight, and turn on data roaming only after landing. Full iPhone and Android guide — on the How it works page.

- Your home number stays active alongside the eSIM; turn off data roaming on it to avoid surprise charges.
- Save a screenshot of the QR code and order number — if anything sticks, support is on WhatsApp 24/7.
