# How does our Nigeria eSIM work?

An eSIM is an embedded SIM card, and you probably already have an [eSIM-compatible device.](/content/can-my-phone-support-esim/index.html) When you [install an eSIM](/content/how-to-install-esim/index.html) for a country or region, it lets your device [connect to local networks](/content/how-to-activate-esim/index.html) in that area. This means your device will have data without needing Wi-Fi or [paying roaming charges.](/content/avoid-data-roaming-charges-international-travel/index.html)

## Use a Nigeria eSIM for instant travel data

Nigeria has plenty to explore, like Kainji National Park, the Yankari Game Reserve, and the Ganashakti-Ganpati National Park.

While you’re in Nigeria, it’s a good idea to have a reliable internet connection on your phone. The cheapest way to do this is with a Nigeria eSIM (downloadable SIM card).

Your Nigeria eSIM will connect you directly to local networks so you have steady data without roaming charges.

## How much travel data do I need with my Nigeria eSIM?

Your data requirements in Nigeria largely depend on your travel plans and personal usage. If you plan on enjoying the tropical outdoors and exploring the pristine beaches, you can’t rely on Wi-Fi availability.

The best thing about a Nigeria eSIM is that it comes with flexible data plans, so you can start with a smaller package and top up as needed.

We also have a [travel data calculator](/content/travel-data-calculator/index.html) to help you estimate how much data you’ll need for your trip.

## Will I pay roaming charges with a prepaid eSIM for Nigeria?

You won’t pay ANY roaming charges with a Nigeria eSIM because you’ll be connecting directly to local networks.

To avoid roaming charges on your primary SIM while you’re in Nigeria, please make sure you’ve [turned off Data Roaming on your primary SIM](/content/avoid-data-roaming-charges-international-travel/index.html) (and confirmed you aren’t enrolled in a carrier travel plan).

You want your phone to rely on your Nigeria eSIM for all mobile data, and _not_ rely on your SIM from back home.
