The short answer
Six travel eSIMs sell data for Argentina and get most of the traffic for this search. I priced all six on the same day, for a week in Buenos Aires, two weeks from Iguazu down to Patagonia, and a month, and read the fine print on unlimited. Here is where each one wins, including the rows where Ringo does not.
Unlimited data with no speed cap for 2 weeks at $44.99, nothing renews. Holafly asks $51.50 for 15 days and Airalo $60 on its Latin America plan. For a month it is $56.99, against $78 for Ubigi, $91.50 for Holafly, $97 for Airalo and $98.99 for Saily.
10 GB for 30 days at $23, and 60 GB at full speed for 30 days at $78, then 2 Mbps. On Movistar and Personal.
The only brand with a 20-day plan at $72.99 and a 25-day plan at $86.99, on top of 5 days at $27.99, a week at $34.99 and 15 days at $57.99. Its 30 days is $98.99.
Unlimited for 3 days at $19.50, 7 days at $34.50 and 10 days at $38.50, 3 GB a day at full speed, then 1 Mbps, on Movistar.
Days, not gigabytes, on Telefonica's Movistar network. $36.90 for a week, $51.50 for 15 days; sharing limited to 1 GB a day.

The prices, charted
US dollars, 10 November 2026. Ringo Light sells 2 weeks, the others 15 days. Airalo's local plan stops at 10 days ($38.50); its 15 days is the Latamlink regional plan. Nomad and Ubigi sell no 15-day unlimited for Argentina.
The 30-day plan at each brand. Ubigi's is 60 GB at full speed, then 2 Mbps. Airalo's is the Latamlink regional plan. Nomad sells no unlimited.
Holafly sells no buckets. Ringo Light sells no bucket either: its 2 weeks is unlimited, so it lasts 2 weeks, not 30 days.

What to do in Argentina, and what your phone needs for it
Eight places most first trips include, from Buenos Aires up to Iguazu and the Andes of the north, and down through Patagonia to Ushuaia, with the one thing your data does for you at each. Signal is good in the cities; in Patagonia and on the trails it drops, so offline maps matter.
If you want unlimited for two weeks or a month: Ringo Light
Argentina is long, and most first trips run two weeks: Buenos Aires, a flight to Iguazu, then south to Patagonia. Few brands sell two weeks of unlimited here. Holafly asks $51.50 for 15 days. Airalo's Argentina plan stops at 10 days for $38.50, and its Latin America plan asks $60 for 15 days. Saily asks $57.99 for 15 days. Nomad sells no unlimited for Argentina, and Ubigi no 15-day plan. Ringo Light charges $44.99 for 2 weeks, nothing renews.
For a month Ringo Light is the cheapest too, at $56.99. Ubigi gives 60 GB at full speed for $78, then 2 Mbps. Holafly asks $91.50, Airalo's Latin America plan $97 and Saily $98.99.
I read what unlimited means on each page before I picked, and you should too. Airalo gives 3 GB a day at full speed, then 1 Mbps. Ubigi gives a fixed amount, then 2 Mbps. Holafly states no daily cap for your own phone and limits sharing to 1 GB a day. Ringo Light is unlimited data at full speed for 7 days, 2 weeks or 30 days.
For a short trip, Ringo Light sells no 3-day plan, but its 7 days at $16.99 costs less than Airalo's 3 days of unlimited at $19.50, and less than any rival's week: Airalo's $34.50, Saily's $34.99, Ubigi's $35 and Holafly's $36.90. Airalo also sells 10 days at $38.50.
Which network works best in Argentina, and what happens at the borders
Argentina has three national networks: Movistar, Claro and Personal. All three cover Buenos Aires, Cordoba, Mendoza, Salta and the tourist towns of Patagonia. Coverage thins out on the long roads across Patagonia, on the trails around El Chalten and in the high valleys of the north, whichever network you are on. Most travel eSIMs here ride Movistar; Ubigi adds Personal. For the cities, any of them works; for the south, I would download offline maps before you go.
Many trips cross a border: to the Brazilian side of Iguazu, to Chile for Torres del Paine, or on the ferry to Uruguay. An Argentina plan, Ringo Light included, stops working at the border. If you will cross, a Latin America plan covers all four countries: Airalo Latamlink, Ubigi Best LATAM, Nomad Latin America and Saily Latin America all do.
If you want a data bucket: Ubigi
- Ubigi, $23 for 10 GB. The cheapest 10 GB, on Movistar and Personal, installed by QR code, no app needed. 25 GB for 30 days is $44, less than anyone's 20 GB.
- Nomad, $28 for 10 GB. 20 GB for $47, on Movistar.
- Saily, $29.99 for 10 GB. 20 GB at $46.99. Read on saily.com, 10 November 2026.
- Airalo, $30 for 10 GB. Its Abrazo! plan: 20 GB for $47, buckets from $5 for 1 GB.
- ✓Ringo Light, no buckets. Its 2 weeks is unlimited for $44.99 and its 30 days unlimited for $56.99. For a fixed amount of data, Ubigi, Nomad, Saily and Airalo are all cheaper in Argentina. I would buy Ringo Light for unlimited, not for a bucket.
What Ringo Light is
Ringo Light is Ringo's own data eSIM, sold to fund the full Ringo, one plan that works everywhere with your own number ported onto it. For Argentina it sells three trips, all unlimited data with no speed cap: 7 days at $16.99, 2 weeks at $44.99 and 30 days at $56.99. Nothing renews. The eSIM arrives by email in seconds and installs in one scan, no app.
In Argentina, going by the prices I read, it is the cheapest two weeks of unlimited of the six, $6.51 under Holafly. It is the cheapest month too: $21.01 under Ubigi for 60 GB, and $42 under Saily. The card to buy it is further up this page, just after the side-by-side table.
One more thing I should say: Ringo's own Latin America trip covers Argentina as well, at $47.99 for 2 weeks and $65.99 for 30 days, the same unlimited data with no speed cap on one eSIM that also works in the neighbouring countries. If you only need Argentina, the Argentina plan is the cheaper Ringo Light to buy today; the Latin America page compares the other one with the same brands.
