PAYG usage estimate
Open offerAmounts use USD. Fixed prices include the recorded setup fee, PAYG estimates are the rate multiplied by data used plus setup, not a minimum top-up amount.
What does a complete data budget cost?
Each row asks for one fixed-data package that covers both the allowance and the whole trip. The hotspot row uses only plans with explicitly recorded tethering support.

How we compareA worked route, with a transparent data budget
Santiago → Atacama Desert → Patagonia
For Santiago → Atacama Desert → Patagonia, our example allows 8 GB over 18 connected days, an average of 0.44 GB per day. Treat that as a budget you can change, rather than a prediction of your phone usage.
Eighteen days across several travel legs need a package that survives the gaps between them, and offline route files remain separate from the mobile-data spend calculation.
Yesim is the lowest-priced listed fixed package covering this example at $21.67, with 10 GB for 30 days. It leaves 2 GB above the modelled allowance, which is not a refund or a second package.
UNISIM has a modelled usage cost of $29.20 for 8 GB. That is the data-spend estimate, not necessarily the amount deposited into the account.
For UNISIM at $3.65 per GB and $0.00 setup, spending reaches the fixed package’s $21.67 at about 5.94 GB. This is cost parity only, the fixed package still has its own data cap and expiry.
What changes the choice here?
The cost of staying a second week
The Chile comparison has the same lowest eligible fixed price of $14.79 for 5 GB over 7 or 14 days. Paying for a second package is unnecessary in this comparison.
Sharing the connection
The catalogue explicitly records hotspot support for UNISIM. Phone and laptop consumption draw from the same allowance, an unrecorded hotspot field is not a confirmed restriction.
Reading unlimited claims
No unlimited option is recorded in this selection. The comparison therefore focuses on fixed allowances and pay-as-you-go data, it does not assume that a larger package has unlimited high-speed use.
Compare providers on the same 5 GB, 14-day requirement
Each package cell is the least expensive eligible fixed offer from that provider, including the recorded setup fee. A dash means that no listed offer meets this specific requirement.

Questions that affect the purchase
Which listed Chile eSIM has the lowest two-week package cost?
For the Chile selection and at least 5 GB valid for 14 days, the lowest eligible fixed package is GigSky at $14.79, with 5 GB for 30 days. This is a price comparison of listed packages, not a network-quality score.
How much data does the Chile route example allow?
The Santiago → Atacama Desert → Patagonia example reserves 8 GB for 18 connected days, or 0.44 GB a day on average. Add the needs of every tethered device and move large backups or downloads to Wi-Fi if they are outside that budget.
Can I use the eSIM with a laptop?
The catalogue explicitly records hotspot support for UNISIM. Phone and laptop consumption draw from the same allowance, an unrecorded hotspot field is not a confirmed restriction.
Should I install the eSIM before departure?
Download the profile and its instructions while you have a reliable internet connection. Installation and the start of a package’s validity can be different events, choose the travel line for data and follow its activation instructions.
Does the same plan cover the next country?
This page compares the catalogue selection for Chile. A country package does not automatically cover a neighbouring stop, use the next destination page for its own cost calculation.
