Getting online in Togo
The main gateway is Gnassingbé Eyadéma International, Lomé (LFW). Scan your Togo eSIM QR code at home, then switch the line on when the plane lands, and you can message your hotel or driver straight away.
Getting around usually means Gozem and zémidjan moto-taxis. One plan covers Lomé, Kpalimé and Aného and the rest of Togo on partner networks.
The main language is French, so a camera-translate app is worth having on mobile data. Prices are in West African CFA franc, and your bank's one-time codes still arrive on your home SIM.
Local tips for Togo
- Lomé is right on the Ghana border, so a West Africa regional plan can cover both.

eSIM, local SIM or roaming: what works best in Togo
| Feature | Best for most tripsLinkPaLS eSIM | Local SIM card | Home roaming |
|---|---|---|---|
| Set up | At home, before you fly | On arrival, at a shop or kiosk | Already on |
| ID needed | None | Usually a passport | None |
| Your home number | Stays on | Removed while the SIM is out | Stays on |
| Cost | Fixed, paid once | Low, but only after arrival | Often the most expensive |
| Best for | Most travelers | Long stays with a local number | Very short emergency use |
Roaming is the easy option and usually the priciest. A local SIM is cheap but costs you an hour on arrival. The eSIM sits in between: set up at home, priced like local data.

Togo eSIM questions
Still unsure? Email support@linkpals.store and a person replies.
Which eSIM is best for Togo?
The best eSIM for Togo covers your whole trip with enough data. For Togo alone, pick a country plan; for several countries, a regional or global plan saves switching. Compare the current plans at the top of this page.
Does the eSIM work in Kpalimé and Aného?
Yes. Your Togo eSIM covers Togo wherever partner networks reach, including Lomé, Kpalimé and Aného. Remote areas may drop to slower speeds or lose signal.
Will my eSIM work when I land at Gnassingbé Eyadéma International?
Yes. If you install it before your flight, it connects once you land and switch off airplane mode. Turn the line on and allow data roaming for it.
Is an eSIM worth it for Togo?
Yes, if your phone supports eSIM. You land with working data, skip the airport SIM counter, avoid roaming charges and keep your home number active.
Which networks does the eSIM use?
It connects to licensed local partner networks in Togo.
Can I buy an eSIM for Togo before I travel?
Yes. Install it a few days ahead on home Wi-Fi and leave the line off. The validity period usually starts when the eSIM first connects in Togo, not when you buy it.
Will WhatsApp keep working in Togo?
Yes. WhatsApp stays linked to your home number on your physical SIM and uses your LinkPaLS data to send and receive.
What are the downsides of an eSIM?
Your phone must support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked, most QR codes install only once, and LinkPaLS plans are data-only, so you call through apps like WhatsApp or FaceTime.
