Rent a cell phone for South Africa and get unlimited 4G/5G speed data*.  Nowadays, it is all about the data in terms of cell phone service as that is what is needed for web browsing, to use GPS, to book an Uber or a taxi, or to check into your flight. And of course, with apps, you can also make phone calls. We recommend Talkatone as you can call the US or Canada for free. Talkatone works like this, you download the app on your rental phone for South Africa (you can do this before your trip with Wi-Fi) and once it is on your phone, you will have a US phone number as well as the ability to make and receive unlimited calls and texts to the US and Canada – calls even to landlines. Please note however that you need to rent an iPhone 6, 8, or X to download most apps. Another app of course that many use is WhatsApp.

The rental process works like this; simply select the phone rental you are interested in, either the Android or one of the iPhones. Then, enter the actual departure date and the actual return date. We will send the phone to your home or address in the US or Canada before your departure time permitting, 2 or 3 business days prior. Once you are done, simply drop the phone off at USPS with the prepaid package we provide (US only, Canadian customers must ship the rental phone back to Cellular Abroad at their own expense).

The phone comes complete with all chargers and adapters for South Africa, brief instructions, and a return label, and is ready to use as soon as you land. The phone rental also works in the neighboring countries of Botswana and Mozambique, but not however, in Zimbabwe.

*Please note that, although it is standard policy in the cellular business to advertise the term, “unlimited”, there is a “Fair Usage Policy” that specifies caps at 10GB each 14 days of your rental, which is enough data for 99% of all travelers.

Our hotspot rental offers virtually unlimited 4G/5G LTE data for travelers.  The mobile hotspot is a portable device about the size of a small cell phone that transmits your own secure Wi Fi hotspot. You can use a Wifi hotspot with any Wi Fi enabled device including cell phones, tablets, PCs and any other device with Wi Fi capabilities. The Mobile Hotspot Rental is very easy to use – simply turn it on, enter the password on your personal device and within seconds you will be connected.

The hotspot comes with everything you need for your trip including all chargers, plug adapters, instructions and a return package; all packed within a convenient travel fas.

Please note that, although it is standard policy in the cellular business to advertise the term, “unlimited”, there is a “Fair Usage Policy” that specifies caps at 10GB each 14 days of your rental, which is enough data for 99% of all travelers.

Our data SIM card offers 10 GB of 4G/5G LTE service for 14 days. The service is plug and play and the SIM activates when it first picks up a network – even in the United States and Canada so users use caution inserting the SIM in your device prior to your departure. This is ideal for checking emails, using social media, Google maps or any other data related activity.

Although you cannot make direct calls or text messages, there are plenty of apps that allow you to make calls including WhatsApp, Skype, Google Voice, FaceTime and many more. We recommend Talkatone as it is free to call and text the USA and does not require the other party to have the app, plus, you can even call to USA and Canadian landlines.

*When you download an app, such as Talkatone, you can make free unlimited calls and texts to the USA and Canada.
