Unlimited eSIM for Morocco: the full-speed caps behind the name

Part of our Morocco eSIM guide: all articles and key facts →

An unlimited eSIM for Morocco never cuts you off, but none of them gives unlimited full-speed data. Each plan has a cap, daily or per plan, and a slower speed after it. We read the rules of eight providers on 25 September 2026: this guide lists the real caps, what each speed allows, and when a fixed plan is cheaper.

What does "unlimited" mean on a Morocco eSIM?

"Unlimited" means you are never disconnected, not that all your data runs at full speed. Behind the word sit two numbers, and the plan's name shows neither of them.

The first is the full-speed allowance: the amount of data you can use at the network's normal 4G or 5G speed, usually counted per day. The second is the throttle speed: the slower speed you keep once the allowance is used up, until it resets.

Providers call this a fair-use policy. eSIM Maroc is unusually direct about it: its terms name the product "Unlimited Lite", with 1 GB a day at full speed and then 512 kbps until the next day. Others hide the numbers in plan data or publish none at all.

Two plans can both be sold as "unlimited" and differ by a factor of three in fast data per day, and by a factor of about sixteen in the speed you are left with. That is why the caps below matter more than the headline.

What are the real daily caps of unlimited Morocco eSIMs?

The daily full-speed allowance ranges from 1 GB (eSIM Maroc) to 3 GB (Airalo, Jetpac), and Ubigi gives 25 GB for a whole week instead of a daily figure. Here are the figures for each provider's own Morocco unlimited plan, read on 25 September 2026, with the price of 7 days. Prices were re-checked on 1 October 2026.

Jetpac sells in US dollars, converted at the European Central Bank rate of 25 September 2026 (1 EUR = 1.1403 USD); the esimdb database lists a separate euro price for it (€30 for 7 days), so the amount charged in euros may differ. Ubigi sells in euros at the same figures as in dollars.

Ubigi's allowance is a total, not a daily figure: 25 GB for 7 days, 30 GB for 15 days and 60 GB for 30 days, which you can spend unevenly. Nomad's plan data says 1 Mbps after the daily 2 GB, but a generic text on its page says 512 kbps, so the lower figure is possible.

Holafly writes only that operators may slow the connection temporarily "for no more than one (1) day". Yesim says speed "may be limited in accordance with the network operator's Fair Usage Policy". Orange Travel's page shows no fair-use figure.

Over a 7-day trip, those rules add up to very different amounts of fast data if you use the whole allowance every day: up to 7 GB with eSIM Maroc, 14 GB with Nomad, 21 GB with Airalo or Jetpac, and 25 GB with Ubigi. For almost the same price, a week at Nomad (€23.69) gives twice the fast data of a week at eSIM Maroc (€24). Ubigi's total is the only one you can spend unevenly, for example several gigabytes on a single day of video calls, which no daily cap allows.

The last row comes from the esimdb comparison database, not from the sellers' own pages. Resellers such as ASIMGO ($7.21) and abesteSIM ($7.50, on its Global plan for 66 destinations) sell 7 days at 1 GB a day, then 128 kbps. Maya Mobile, Saily and GigSky also advertise unlimited plans, but their sites refused automated reading and we could not verify their caps.

What can you do at 128 kbps, 512 kbps, 1 Mbps or 2 Mbps?

At 512 kbps and above, messaging, email and voice calls usually keep working; at 128 kbps, only text gets through comfortably. The guide below uses general, widely known orders of magnitude for common apps. It is not our own measurement in Morocco, and results vary with the app, the network and the time of day.

At 128 kbps, the plan is unlimited in name only: a map of the Marrakech medina may take a long time to appear, which is exactly when you need it. At 512 kbps, a traveller who mostly navigates and messages rarely notices the slowdown. At 1 or 2 Mbps, you can carry on almost normally, except for video.

Download offline maps before you leave the hotel and none of these speeds will strand you. Voice and video calls over the internet are allowed in Morocco: WhatsApp and FaceTime calls have worked since the regulator, the ANRT, lifted its block on 4 November 2016.

Does the network behind an unlimited plan matter?

Yes: the cap decides how much fast data you get, but the network decides how fast "full speed" really is. Airalo and Nomad run on Orange Maroc only. Holafly, Yesim and Orange Travel name all three operators, and Ubigi names Maroc Telecom and Orange.

In the ANRT's May 2026 mobile data campaign, Orange was marked below the city average for download speed in Marrakech, Agadir, Meknès, Laayoune, Fès and Tétouan. It was also below average for video start times in all ten cities measured, while inwi was above average in most of them.

Opensignal's January to March 2026 report also puts Orange last for video nationally, with scores of 52.3 for inwi, 49.6 for Maroc Telecom and 40.1 for Orange. For average download speed its order is different: 27.5 Mbps on Maroc Telecom, 23.7 Mbps on Orange and 22.8 Mbps on inwi. All three are far above the 2 Mbps of the best throttle speed, so every network handles maps and calls well. Our Marrakech coverage guide and our comparison of Maroc Telecom, Orange and inwi give the full picture.

How does hotspot sharing work on an unlimited plan?

Hotspot sharing uses the same allowance as your phone, and some providers add a lower limit of their own. Here are the rules each provider states:

• eSIM Maroc allows hotspot on every plan; shared data comes out of the same 1 GB a day.
• Holafly caps hotspot sharing at 1 GB a day, even though the plan itself has no published cap.
• Nomad, Jetpac and Orange Travel allow hotspot; Ubigi allows data sharing.
• Yesim says hotspot "depends on operator". We did not find Airalo's hotspot rule for Morocco.

A laptop uses data much faster than a phone, because it downloads updates and syncs files in the background. If you plan to work from a riad or a café, a plan with a large allowance at full speed fits better than a 1 GB daily cap. Ubigi's 25 GB for 7 days, or a large fixed plan such as Orange Travel's 50 GB for 30 days at €23.99, gives far more room.

When does a fixed-data plan beat an unlimited one?

Whenever you would use about 1 GB a day or less: the same amount of fast data then costs far less as a fixed plan. The table compares eSIM Maroc's unlimited plan, which gives 1 GB a day at full speed, with the cheapest fixed plan offering at least as many gigabytes for at least as many days (prices of 25 September 2026).

A fixed plan has two other advantages. The gigabytes do not reset every night, so a quiet day leaves more for a busy one, and most fixed plans can be topped up.

Its weakness is the end: when the data runs out, you stop, unless you buy more. Jetpac softens this with free access to WhatsApp, Maps and Uber once the data of a pack of 3 GB or more is used up. An unlimited plan's strength is that you never have to count.

The Orange Travel prices in the table are promotional until 15 November 2026. Our price-per-day and price-per-GB comparison shows what changes after that date.

Are regional and global unlimited plans worth it for Morocco?

Only if your trip continues to other countries: for Morocco alone, the regional unlimited plans we read cost more than the Morocco-only ones. Airalo's Middle East and North Africa plan, Menalink, includes Morocco with the same rule as Airalo's local plan: 3 GB a day, then 1 Mbps.

It costs €22 for 3 days, €37 for 7 days and €89.50 for 30 days, against €16 and €32 for Airalo's Morocco-only plan over 3 and 7 days. Airalo's global Discover plan, which also covers Morocco, costs €41 for 7 days and €143.50 for 30 days with the same 3 GB daily cap.

The gap persists over longer trips. Menalink's unlimited plan costs €47 for 10 days, against €41 for Airalo's Morocco-only plan, and €71.50 for 15 days, a length for which Airalo sells no Morocco-only unlimited plan at all.

Airalo's "Hello Africa" and "Eurolink" plans do not include Morocco, so check the country list before buying a regional plan for a trip that combines Spain and Morocco. eSIM Maroc works in Morocco only.

How do Moroccan operators' own unlimited offers compare?

They are cheaper per day, but they need identification and publish no fair-use figure. Orange Maroc's visitor offer "Marhaba", sold on Orange's online shop as a SIM card or an eSIM, gives unlimited internet for 7 days at 120 MAD, 14 days at 220 MAD and 30 days at 320 MAD.

At about 10.9 dirhams to the euro on 25 September 2026, that is roughly €11, €20.10 and €29.30. inwi's eSIM packs at 120, 220, 320 and 520 DH also include unlimited internet for 7 to 30 days.

Neither operator's page states the speed limit after heavy use, and prepaid lines in Morocco must be registered with an official identity document under ANRT rules, so bring your passport. Our guide to Moroccan operator eSIMs covers the fees and catches, and Morocco SIM card vs eSIM does the maths for a whole trip.

Is a day pass from your home operator an alternative?

Rarely at a better price: home-operator day passes for Morocco cost €9 to €15 a day, against about €2 to €6 a day for travel eSIM unlimited plans. Morocco is outside the EU roaming zone, so European operators sell separate passes. On their official pages on 25 September 2026:

• Orange España sold 3 GB per 24 hours for €9, or 25 GB for 7 days at €25, for contract customers only.
• Vodafone España charged €15 a day for 2 GB a day through its "Bono Diario Viaje Mundo".
• Vodafone Germany charged €9.99 a day for 500 MB a day, or €34.99 for a week with 4 GB.
• Digi in Spain charged €1.50 per GB used in Morocco, by far the cheapest of the Spanish operators we read.

The home option keeps your number and needs no installation. Our guide to roaming in Morocco lists the rates of other operators.

Which unlimited eSIM for Morocco should you choose?

Pick by the cap you need: Ubigi for the most fast data, Nomad for a solid daily cap at a low price, eSIM Maroc for moderate use on a 5 to 15-day trip. In more detail:

• The most fast data: Ubigi, with 25 GB for 7 days and the highest speed after the allowance (2 Mbps), on Maroc Telecom and Orange.
• A generous daily cap: Airalo and Jetpac (3 GB a day, then 1 Mbps), or Nomad (2 GB a day, then 1 Mbps) for less money. Airalo and Nomad use Orange only.
• No counting, all three networks: Holafly and Yesim name Orange, Maroc Telecom and inwi, but publish no daily figure; Holafly limits hotspot to 1 GB a day.
• Moderate use on a 5 to 15-day trip: eSIM Maroc. Its 1 GB a day is the lowest cap of the named brands, and its 512 kbps is below the 1 Mbps of Airalo, Nomad and Jetpac. But for 5 to 15 days it is cheaper than Holafly (7 days €24 vs €28.90), Airalo (€24 vs €32; unlimited only up to 10 days), Yesim (€24 vs €31.50) and Jetpac (€24 vs ≈ €27.62).

eSIM Maroc also allows hotspot on every plan, starts only at the first Moroccan connection, and its 512 kbps is four times the 128 kbps of the cheapest long-tail plans. Nomad remains slightly cheaper for a week (€23.69), and Ubigi costs €1 more (€25) for far more fast data.
