Find the perfect Ubigi plan for your trip
What you get with Ubigi in DR Congo
Set up before you fly
Buy in the Ubigi app and install your QR code at home. Your plan activates automatically when you first connect to a local tower in DR Congo.
Keep your existing number
Ubigi runs as a second line alongside your home SIM. Your usual number stays active for calls and texts — Ubigi handles data only.
Real-time data usage
Track exactly how much data you've used at any time in the Ubigi app, so you never get caught short before your next refill.
Travel beyond DR Congo
If your DR Congo trip is part of a wider journey, Ubigi covers many other destinations from the same app — manage everything in one place.
Flexible up to 7 days
Ubigi DR Congo plans run up to 7 days from first use. Buy in advance so you're ready the moment you land.
Which Ubigi plan should you pick?
For a short city break of 3–6 days, the cheapest plan at $49 will cover Maps, WhatsApp and casual browsing. If you’re spending one to two weeks travelling around DR Congo, step up to a mid-tier plan — usually the strongest value on a per-GB basis in Ubigi’s DR Congo lineup.
If you plan to work remotely, stream video daily, or use your phone as a hotspot, lean towards a larger bundle. The unlimited plans cost a premium but make sense for heavy users who don’t want to track usage.
One thing to note: Ubigi DR Congo plans are data-only. You won’t get a local number, but your existing SIM handles calls and texts as normal — messages, WhatsApp and FaceTime all work over data.
