Frequently Asked Questions
What is the cheapest eSIM for Portugal?
The cheapest Portugal eSIM on MobiMatter costs $3.49 for 2 GB, valid for 15 days. Prices come live from 7 vetted providers and change often; the price on this page is the current one.
Is it worth getting an eSIM for Portugal?
For most tourists and business travellers, yes, if your phone supports eSIM. Portugal plans start at $3.49 for 2 GB, and you install the eSIM before you fly, so you have data when you land, without queuing for a tourist SIM at the airport. If your home plan already covers Portugal at no extra cost, you may not need one.
Which networks do Portugal eSIMs use?
Portugal eSIMs on MobiMatter run on MEO, Vodafone, and NOS. Every plan names its network, so you can choose the carrier you prefer before you buy.
Which eSIM is best for Portugal?
Our best plan for Portugal right now is 120 GB for 30 days at $49.99 from Bouygues. We rank plans on quality and value for money, and this one comes first in the list. If price per GB is all that matters, the lowest right now is $0.73 per GB, with 50 GB for 30 days.
How much data do I need for a week in Portugal?
It depends on how you use your phone. Light use (maps, messaging, browsing) takes about 0.5–1 GB a day; scrolling a lot of social video can take 2–3 GB or more. Typical use per hour:
- Instagram Reels, TikTok: 0.3–1 GB
- YouTube, Netflix at standard quality: 0.5–1 GB
- Video calls (WhatsApp, FaceTime): 0.5–1 GB
- Voice calls (WhatsApp, FaceTime Audio): 50–70 MB
- Maps and navigation: 2–6 MB
- Messaging and browsing: 50–150 MB
The cheapest Portugal plan with at least 5 GB for a week or longer is 5 GB for 30 days at $6.49.
Is there an unlimited data eSIM for Portugal?
Yes. Unlimited data plans for Portugal start at $7.99. Many unlimited plans slow down after a daily high-speed allowance, so check the fair-use terms on the plan page before you buy.
Do Portugal eSIMs support 5G and hotspot?
5G is available on 30 plans for Portugal, where the local network has 5G coverage; the others use 4G/LTE. Hotspot (tethering) works on every plan, so you can share your data with other devices.
Does a Portugal eSIM come with a phone number?
Most travel eSIMs, including most Portugal plans, are data-only and have no local number. You keep your usual number on your main SIM for calls, texts and WhatsApp. Plans that include a number or minutes say so on the plan page.
Will my phone work with a Portugal eSIM?
Yes, if it supports eSIM and is not locked to a carrier. To check, dial *#06#: if an EID number appears, your phone supports eSIM. Most iPhones from the XS/XR on, Galaxy S20 and later and Pixel 3 and later do, except models sold in mainland China.
Can I keep my own SIM and WhatsApp while using a Portugal eSIM?
Yes. Your eSIM and your main SIM can be active at the same time. Use the eSIM for mobile data with data roaming on for that line, and turn data roaming off on your home SIM to avoid charges. WhatsApp keeps working on your usual number.

nice app. I used it during my travel in Spain last year and the internet speed was always good. I didn't have any issues. I now bought a package that covers both Portugal and Spain, as I am going there tomorrow.

It's the most ideal in terms of usability and price. You don't have to deal with a SIM card. Regional packages are especially recommended.

I used it for the first time with my wife during our trip to Japan and Korea, and I didn't experience any connection problems. The internet was fast enough in both Japan and Korea, and I was satisfied with the app. I recommend it.

Used this app for mobile data while in Malaysia for a few days last week. I rate it 10/10 for ease of use, affordability and for effectiveness too. After 5 days of regular usage, I still have 8GB left out of 10GB
