What Data Plans can I send through Fonoma?

Fonoma offers three ETECSA combined plans, all valid for 30 days from the send date:

  • Basic Plan: 9 GB of data + 75 minutes + 80 SMS
  • Regular Plan: 14 GB of data + 115 minutes + 120 SMS
  • Plus Plan: 20 GB of data + 165 minutes + 160 SMS

All plans activate automatically on the phone in Cuba — no action needed. Full guide: Data Plans for Cuba.

When is it better to send a Data Plan than to wait for a Cubacel promotion?

If your family member needs connectivity right now, a Data Plan is the most convenient choice — it doesn't rely on the promotion schedule and delivers data, minutes, and SMS for 30 days from the moment of sending. Cubacel promotions appear approximately twice a month and last about 6 days, so timing isn't always reliable.

Do plan resources accumulate if there's already an active plan?

Yes. If the recipient already has an active plan when they receive a new one, all resources are added automatically:

  • Data (GB) accumulates
  • Minutes and SMS are also added
  • Validity extends from the date of the new send

Nothing is lost and service is never interrupted.

How do I verify the plan was received correctly?

Fonoma sends a confirmation email as soon as the plan is processed. The person in Cuba can check their resources by dialing *222*328# from their phone. Activation usually takes just minutes, but can occasionally take up to an hour. If there's no confirmation after an hour, contact us via chat. View useful Cubacel codes.

When is the next Cubacel promotion?

Cubacel promotions typically run twice a month and last approximately 6 days each. The quickest way to stay informed is by enabling notifications in the Fonoma app — we'll notify you as soon as a new promotion starts so you don't miss it. Download the Fonoma app and enable alerts.

Does Fonoma work for recharges in the United States?

No — Fonoma is dedicated exclusively to recharges to Cuba. For US prepaid phone recharges, Teloa is the recommended alternative — covering T-Mobile, AT&T, Metro, Verizon, Cricket, Boost Mobile, and more, with the same secure payment experience. Refill your prepaid phone in the US with Teloa.
