Where to Buy the Best Prepaid SIM Card in Chile for Travelers in 2025?

To summarize: A foreign passport can be used to buy and activate a SIM card, and it is already in use.

[Rainbow] I mainly chose Claro because I wanted a package that could be used in multiple countries in America, but I was told it can only be used within Chile. Who can tell me how to actually get such a package? [Star]

1. I got the SIM card at a Claro store in Calama (the card was actually free?!). I confirmed several times that it really didn’t cost anything. The staff helped me register my passport on the mobile webpage, and it was activated immediately with 200MB of free data and some free call minutes (see image [Two]). Can you believe it?

2. Since I had to catch a flight to Santiago from Calama, I didn’t proceed with recharging and buying data. But I found out that you need to go to a Cruz Verde pharmacy (where you can recharge with a credit card) to top up your number first, and then you can buy a data package.

3. In Santiago, I went to a Claro store again, and the staff informed me that after recharging, I could buy a data package online. The website is shown in image [Three]. Most people choose the 7-day unlimited data (💰3000) as shown in image [Three], or the 30-day 50GB (💰4999) as shown in image [Four] — of course, this one is more cost-effective.
