Share with your laptop
Hotspot is allowed on the plan selected above, so a second device can use the same data in a cafe or a hotel room.

Puerto Rico travel data guide
A Puerto Rico eSIM from RoamZivo is a prepaid data plan for Puerto Rico that you install before you fly. Plans in Puerto Rico run on Movistar, Tigo, TIM, Claro, Vivo and movistar, with 5G where the operator offers it. The eSIM is data only, so your own SIM stays in for calls and texts.
There are 14 plans to choose from. Data sizes run from 1 GB to 5 GB, validity from 1 to 30 days, and prices start at $3.99. Unlimited plans are listed too, each with its own fair use line. Hotspot sharing is supported on every plan. Top ups are available on some of the fixed data plans and go onto the same eSIM.
Visiting more than one country? The Latin America eSIM covers Puerto Rico and 19 other countries on one plan, from $12.99. The Caribbean eSIM covers Puerto Rico and 24 other countries on one plan, from $6.99. The Global eSIM covers Puerto Rico and 126 other countries on one plan, from $18.99.
Your days start the first time the eSIM connects in Puerto Rico, not when you buy, so you can install it at home days early. For a week of maps, messaging and social apps, most travellers are fine with 3 to 5 GB. Video calls or streaming need more, or an unlimited plan. Travel data in Puerto Rico from RoamZivo arrives as a QR code by email, with a copy kept in your account.
Puerto Rico FAQ
Does the eSIM work everywhere in Puerto Rico?
It connects wherever Movistar, Tigo, TIM, Claro, Vivo and movistar have signal, which is the same network local customers use. The eSIM is data only.
When do my days start?
On the first connection in Puerto Rico, not at purchase. The plan selected above (3 GB) runs for 30 days from that moment. You can install the eSIM at home and the clock stays still until you connect.
Do I get a local phone number in Puerto Rico?
No. The eSIM is data only. Your own SIM stays in for calls and texts, and WhatsApp keeps working over the eSIM data.
Can I share data with my laptop?
Yes. Hotspot sharing is supported on the plan selected above, so your laptop or tablet can use the eSIM data through your phone.
Is 1 GB enough for a week in Puerto Rico?
1 GB covers a week in Puerto Rico for maps, messaging and looking things up. It is not enough if you upload video or stream. For that, the 7 day unlimited plan with 1 GB or 2 GB per day at full speed fits better.
Is the Puerto Rico eSIM 5G?
Puerto Rico plans are sold as 3G/4G/5G or 4G/5G, so 5G is included where the network and your phone support it. We do not promise 5G at any given location. The plan card shows the network type.
Will I get a Puerto Rico phone number?
No, the Puerto Rico eSIM is data only. It has no number for calls or texts. Your home SIM keeps working for those if you leave it on, subject to your own carrier's charges.
When does my Puerto Rico plan start?
It starts when the eSIM first connects to a network in Puerto Rico. Buying and installing do not start it. A 3 day plan installed a month ahead still gives three days from arrival.
Can I get the eSIM right away if I am already in Puerto Rico?
Yes. The QR code is emailed after payment, so you can buy from your hotel in Puerto Rico and install over the hotel WiFi. The plan then starts as soon as the eSIM connects.
Can I use hotspot on a Puerto Rico eSIM?
Yes, hotspot is allowed on all Puerto Rico plans. On unlimited plans, hotspot use counts toward the daily 1 GB or 2 GB. After that, both your phone and the connected device run at up to 1 Mbps.
Can I top up if 5 GB is not enough?
Top up is offered on some Puerto Rico plans. Check the details of the 5 GB plan before buying. If top up is not listed, you can buy a second plan or choose a 30 day unlimited plan from the start.
How do I top up if I run low?
The plan selected above does not offer top ups. Buy a new plan from this page instead and install it as a second eSIM.
