Saudi Arabia SIM Packages & Data Plans

Saudi Arabia's prepaid market is served by STC (Sawa), Mobily and Zain KSA, each with daily, weekly and 4-week bundles plus visitor SIMs for tourists and expatriates. This page lists the current plans with prices, benefits and activation codes.

STC's Sawa range runs from Sawa Basic (SAR 34.50, 1 GB data + 1 GB social + 100 minutes) up to Sawa Hero with unlimited data, social, calls and SMS. Sawa Captain bundles 20 GB plus unlimited WhatsApp and Google Maps. Sawa Flex plans are a separate family with structurally different benefits, and Sawa Visitor packages cater specifically to visitors to the Kingdom.

Mobily prepaid plans run on 4-week cycles. Prepaid 75 (launched 3 July 2026) gives 11 GB social data plus 15 GB free promotional internet and 500 local minutes for SAR 75 — activate by texting 75 to 1100, and stop auto-renewal with 075 to 1100. Prepaid 180 offers 80 GB for SAR 207 including VAT, and Prepaid 360 goes unlimited across data, social and local minutes.

Zain KSA's Flex and Shabab families compete aggressively. Flex 69 bundles 10 GB internet + 15 GB social + 300 flex minutes for SAR 79.35, while Shabab 409 is fully unlimited. Zain also publishes clean activation SMS codes to 959 — for example 411 for the 105 GB monthly plan, 414 for 300 GB quarterly — with BC to 959 for balance.

Saudi prices are frequently shown VAT-inclusive (15% VAT) but some data-plan pages list prices before VAT. We store both price_before_tax and price_after_tax wherever the operator exposes them so comparisons stay honest.
