The Iridium GO! works with the device specific plans below, as well as standard phone plans.
Iridium GO! is a rugged, portable, and compact unit that provides global connectivity for voice and data communications in remote regions using the Iridium satellite network. It supports the simultaneous connection of up to five different smart devices.
How it works
The Iridium GO! is a satellite phone and Wi-Fi Hotspot that allows devices to connect for voice calling, SMS, and data capabilities without incurring roaming charges. If traveling in groups, this unique device lets users extend the use of their smart devices to keep in touch even if cellular networks are unreachable.
Data and Voice Plans
To activate and use the Iridium GO!, you’ll need a SIM card and a satellite data plan for temporary or long-term use that allows for both voice and/or data services.
Prepaid
With an Iridium SIM card, you can opt for prepaid plans that are valid for 6 months with 3000 SMS preloaded or if you need more flexibility, choose a top-up option with a 12 month prepaid plan that gives you the convenience of loading data or airtime whenever you need it.
Postpaid
Iridium GO! postpaid plans come in different packages that range from 5, 75, or 150 data minute plans, or unlimited subscriptions with a minimum term commitment. Postpaid plans are ideal for users with daily communication needs over a long-term period. Simply pay on a monthly basis without the hassle of having to top-up or deal with the worry of running low on credit.
Voice Plans
Voice plans are also available in postpaid and prepaid plans for users who need access to airtime. The plans are based on regions and come with varying loaded airtime options. If you’re traveling in North America, you can choose from the Iridium Northern Lights (Canada and Alaska) prepaid plan or if you don’t want to be restricted to a specific region, the Global plan will be more practical.
