The short answer
Six travel eSIMs sell a Chile plan and get most of the traffic for this search. I put all six side by side on the same day, for a week in Santiago and Valparaiso, two weeks from the Atacama down to Patagonia, and a month, and read the fine print on unlimited. Below is where each one wins, and the rows I give to a rival.
Unlimited data with no speed cap for 2 weeks at $44.99, nothing renews. Airalo asks $50 and Holafly $51.50 for 15 days, Ubigi $49 with 30 GB at full speed. For a month Ringo Light charges $63.99, against $68 at Ubigi. Saily's Global plan, listed at $59.99 on 5 October, is $4 less.
30 days with 60 GB at full speed, then 2 Mbps, for $68, and 10 GB for 30 days at $24, on Movistar. Also 7 days with 20 GB at full speed for $25.
20 GB for 30 days at $39 and 10 GB at $25, on Movistar. Its unlimited stops at 10 days.
Unlimited for 3 days at $12.50, against $13.50 at Holafly, and 7 days at $27.50, 3 GB a day at full speed, then 1 Mbps, on Movistar and WOM.

The prices, charted
US dollars, 31 October 2026. Ringo Light sells 2 weeks, Airalo and Holafly 15 days. Ubigi's 15 days is 30 GB at full speed, then 2 Mbps. Nomad's unlimited stops at 10 days, and Saily sells no Chile unlimited at all.
The 30-day plan at each brand. Ringo Light is the cheapest month of the Chile plans, unlimited data at full speed. Ubigi's is 60 GB at full speed, then 2 Mbps. Saily sells unlimited only on its Global plan, $59.99 on a listing of 5 October.
Holafly sells no buckets. Ringo Light sells no bucket either: its 2 weeks is unlimited and lasts 2 weeks, not 30 days.

That is the full Ringo service: one plan that works everywhere, with your own number included.
It is a separate product from Ringo Light and it is still being built, so it is not on sale yet. Join the waitlist to hear when it opens.
What to do in Chile, and what your phone needs for it
Eight places most first trips include, from the Atacama desert down to Patagonia and out to Rapa Nui, with the one thing your data does for you at each. Signal is good in the cities; in the desert, the parks and on the islands it drops, so offline maps matter.
If you want unlimited for two weeks or a month: Ringo Light
Chile is long, and most first trips run two weeks: Santiago and Valparaiso, a flight north to the Atacama, a flight south to Patagonia. For 15 days of unlimited, Airalo asks $50 and Holafly $51.50. Nomad stops at 10 days for $45, and Ubigi sells 15 days at $49 with 30 GB at full speed, then 2 Mbps. Saily sells no Chile unlimited at all. Ringo Light charges $44.99 for 2 weeks, nothing renews.
For a month Ringo Light is the cheapest Chile plan, at $63.99. Ubigi sells 30 days at $68, $4.01 more, with 60 GB at full speed and 2 Mbps after that. Saily sells unlimited only on its Global plan, listed at $59.99 for 30 days on 5 October, $4 under Ringo Light. Airalo asks $92 and Holafly $100.50.
What a brand means by unlimited is the part I check first. Airalo gives 3 GB a day at full speed, then 1 Mbps. Nomad gives 2 GB a day. 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 the whole 7 days, 2 weeks or 30 days.
If your trip is 3 days, my pick is not Ringo Light, which sells no 3-day plan. Airalo sells 3 days of unlimited at $12.50 and Holafly at $13.50, both under Ringo Light's 7 days at $16.99. For a week, Ringo Light's 7 days at $16.99 costs less than Ubigi's week with 20 GB at full speed for $25.
Which network works best in Chile
Chile has four national networks: Entel, Movistar, Claro and WOM. All four cover Santiago, Valparaiso and the towns of the central valley. Coverage thins on the desert roads of the Atacama, on the Carretera Austral and inside the Patagonian parks, whichever network you are on; on the trails of Torres del Paine there is almost none. Every rival here rides Movistar, and Airalo adds WOM. For the cities any of them works; for the far north and the far south, I would download offline maps before leaving town.
If you want a data bucket: Ubigi or Nomad
- Ubigi, $24 for 10 GB. The cheapest 10 GB, on Movistar, installed by QR code, no app needed. For 20 GB it sells 25 GB at $48.
- Nomad, $25 for 10 GB. The cheapest 20 GB at $39, on Movistar.
- Saily, $27.99 for 10 GB. 20 GB at $48.99. Its listing is dated 5 October; saily.com would not load when I tried.
- Airalo, $28 for 10 GB. Its Altoque plan, on Movistar and WOM: 20 GB for $48, buckets from $4.50 for 1 GB.
- ✓Ringo Light, no buckets. Its 2 weeks is unlimited for $44.99 and its 30 days unlimited for $63.99. For a fixed amount of data, Ubigi, Nomad, Saily and Airalo are all cheaper in Chile. Ringo Light is the one I would pick for unlimited, never for a bucket.
What Ringo Light is
Ringo Light is the data eSIM from the company I write for, sold to fund the full Ringo, one plan that works everywhere with your own number ported onto it. For Chile 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 $63.99. Nothing renews. The eSIM arrives by email in seconds and installs in one scan, no app.
In Chile it is, by my reading, the cheapest two weeks of unlimited of the six. It is the cheapest month of the Chile plans, $4.01 under Ubigi; only Saily's Global plan, listed at $59.99 on 5 October, is lower. Ringo also sells a Latin America trip that covers Chile too, at $47.99 for 2 weeks and $65.99 for 30 days, on one eSIM that also works in Argentina, Peru and Bolivia. The card to buy it is further up this page, just after the side-by-side table.

Left out: Maya Mobile. We could not read its own prices for this country on the day, so it stays out rather than being guessed.
