BlueCosmo offers competitive IsatPhone (Inmarsat) prepaid SIM cards for short-term trips, seasonal use, or long-term satellite communication, without the commitment of monthly billing. Prepaid services are ideal if you want control over costs, predictable usage, and near-global satellite coverage (excluding polar regions).
What Is an Inmarsat Prepaid Plan?
With an IsatPhone prepaid SIM card:
- You purchase a fixed amount of airtime units to use within a defined expiry period.
- No contract or monthly fee, play only for what you need.
- No activation fees, you can activate your SIM when you're ready.
- You need to monitor your balance and expiry to ensure you have airtime when you need it. You can enable auto-refill and disable it from MyAccount.
- You can refill the card at any time.
- With prepaid service, you won’t receive a record of your calls.
