Questions about prices and plans
Is the price the final price?
Yes. The plan cards show the price in US dollars with tax included, and the store shows the same total before you pay.
Why do you not show the 7-day unlimited plan?
The store publishes no speed or data cap for it. This site lists an unlimited plan only when its terms are written on the plan, so the four plans with stated data are the ones shown.
Can I buy on this site?
You choose here and pay on BaobabSIM, the company's store for Africa and the Middle East. It takes the payment, shows the QR code on your order page and handles support.
Do the prices change?
The store sets them, and this site checks the live page before every release. If a price ever differs between here and the store, the store's checkout is the one you pay.
