Nicaragua – known for the large number of lakes, volcanoes & architecture.
When speaking of lakes, the country has Central America‘s largest lake, Lake Nicaragua (and it has freshwater too).
Beaches, watersport activities, and history – Nicaragua has it all.
You will certainly not be bored when exploring the country.
Before you start sharing all your Nicaragua experiences online, be aware of the potential bill shock you may experience when you roam internationally.
International roaming can be incredibly expensive. Most often, the costs are not worth the service you get.
Fortunately, you can get a local SIM card, like a Nicaraguan one, so that you can enjoy local rates.
Much cheaper, and you often have a better network experience too.
So, how expensive are SIM cards in Nicaragua?
You can get a Nicaraguan SIM card for 50 NIO (1.35 USD) from Claro and Tigo in their stores or resellers, like convenience stores. SIM cards are also sold at Managua-Augusto C. Sandino International Airport (MGA).
Low rates, right? Some operators may charge you 2 USD per MB – not worth it!
Before you get all excited about these low rates, there are some things to be aware of when thinking of Nicaraguan SIM cards.
In this guide, I will go over everything you need to know about buying a SIM card in Nicaragua. Let's do this.

What is the Best SIM Card in Nicaragua?
If you want to buy the best SIM card in Nicaragua, I recommend going with Tigo (formerly Movistar). It has the best coverage in the country. Claro can be faster in some locations, but you will still be better off with Tigo.
So, who are all these mobile operators and what options are available for you?
Nicaragua has two mobile operators offering prepaid services that are easily accessible to travelers:
- Claro Nicaragua
- Tigo Nicaragua (formerly Movistar Nicaragua)
Anyone living in or visiting Nicaragua can buy a Nicaraguan SIM card with some restrictions.

Where Can You Buy a Nicaraguan SIM Card (+Prices)?
You can get a Nicaraguan SIM card in Claro and Tigo (formerly Movistar) stores. Resellers, like post offices, newsstands & grocery stores, also sell SIM cards. Some Nicaraguan airports sell (tourist) SIM cards (at inflated prices).
You can expect to pay the following for Nicaraguan SIM cards:
- Claro Nicaragua: 50 NIO
- Tigo Nicaragua (formerly Movistar): 50 NIO
Note that Nicaraguan SIM cards can be more expensive than those listed above when purchased at an airport.

(Travel) eSIMs for Nicaragua
In recent years, (travel) eSIMs have become extremely popular.
Especially after Apple made iPhones (14- & 15 series) sold in the United States eSIM-only, forcing its users to use eSIMs – even when abroad.
As a result, the adoption of eSIM technology by mobile operators worldwide rose impressively quickly.
Currently, no Nicaraguan mobile operator offers eSIMs to prepaid customers.
In my Nicaragua eSIM buying guide, I analyze various eSIM options of eSIM providers I have tested extensively worldwide.
Surprisingly, travel eSIMs can be cheaper than a Nicaraguan SIM card or eSIM in specific scenarios.
Moreover, Latin (Central- and South) America-wide and global eSIM options are also available at competitive prices (without having to deal with expensive international roaming rates).
In this Nicaragua SIM card buying guide (the one you are reading), I will stick to the local SIM cards and eSIM, but you can read my Nicaragua eSIM buying guide for more information about travel eSIMs covering the country.
But here is a quick overview already + applicable discount codes if you are interested in purchasing a travel eSIM for Nicaragua:
- Airalo: Nicarcell (Nicaragua only), Latamlink (19 countries in Latin (Central- and South) America) & Discover+ (130 countries worldwide + up to 200 worldwide minutes & 200 worldwide SMS)
- Alosim: Nicaragua
- Holafly: Nicaragua & South America (14 countries in Central- and South America) – options include unlimited data
- Nomad: Global (109 or 139 countries, depending on the variant)
Here are some discount codes to sweeten the deal:
- Airalo: DEC15 for 15% off (if you have never bought an Airalo eSIM before). Otherwise, DEC10 for 10% off (for existing users) – only the first 3000 users can redeem either discount code)
- Alosim: PTW for 5% off (as many times as you wish for as many eSIMs as you want)
- Holafly: PHONETRAVELWIZ for 5% off (as many times as you wish for as many eSIMs as you want)

Once again, check out my Nicaragua eSIM buying guide to learn more about these eSIM options.
The eSIM guide is as comprehensive as this SIM card buying guide, but it solely focuses on travel eSIMs (while the guide you are reading focuses on local SIM cards and eSIMs for prepaid users (where applicable).

You may want to get a travel eSIM for Nicaragua, which can be cheaper than getting a SIM card from Tigo (in some cases).
Especially when getting a Latin (Central- and South) America-wide eSIM if you do not stay in just Nicaragua or a global eSIM valid for up to a year if you want one eSIM to work practically worldwide.
