Frequently Asked Questions
What is the cheapest eSIM for Uruguay?
Uruguay is covered by multi-country plans only, and the cheapest is $3.99 for 1 GB, valid for 7 days. Prices come live from 6 vetted providers and change often; the price on this page is the current one.
Is it worth getting an eSIM for Uruguay?
For most travellers, yes, if your phone supports eSIM. Uruguay plans start at $3.99 for 1 GB, and the longest lasts 365 days, which suits long stays and repeat visits. If your home plan already covers Uruguay at no extra cost, you may not need one.
Which networks do Uruguay eSIMs use?
Uruguay eSIMs on MobiMatter run on 3 networks: Tigo, Claro, and Antel. Tigo carries the most plans (39 plans). Each plan names its network, so you choose your carrier before you buy.
Which eSIM is best for Uruguay?
No plan covers Uruguay alone right now, so the choice is a multi-country plan. The top one is 20 GB for 30 days at $44.99 from Sparks, covering 10 countries. We rank plans on quality and value for money. If price per GB is all that matters, the lowest right now is $1.80 per GB, with 50 GB for 180 days.
How much data do I need for a week in Uruguay?
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 Uruguay plan with at least 5 GB for a week or longer is 5 GB for 30 days at $14.99.
Do Uruguay eSIMs support 5G and hotspot?
Uruguay plans currently run on 4G/LTE. Hotspot (tethering) works on every plan, so you can share your data with other devices.
Does a Uruguay eSIM come with a phone number?
Most travel eSIMs, including most Uruguay 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 Uruguay 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 most models sold in mainland China and some sold in Hong Kong and Macao.
Can I keep my own SIM and WhatsApp while using a Uruguay 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.

I needed an eSIM for EU and non-EU counties for the same trip. They had one package at a great price that worked great in all location. The app was great as I was able to check my data balance, in real time, quickly and easily during my trip. Would definitely use MobiMatters again. Downloading the eSIM was quick and easy too. In addition, when I reached out to Customer Support on a minor account issue, they were very responsive and addressed my issue quickly and effectively.

"Before every trip, my internet solution is definitely Mobimatter. It has never let me down. I once found myself without internet in the middle of a trip with another brand. Now, I don't take any chances; I stick to what I know."

I bought the eSIM for a holiday in Tibet. Everything was great; with the integrated VPN I was able to access all the sites that are normally blocked in China (Google, WhatsApp, etc.).
