Iridium Prepaid Standard Subscription: 100 minutes, 1 month

This subscription is a service top-up that grants you 100 minutes of voice communication on the Iridium satellite network. The validity of this credit is 1 month (30 days) from the activation date on your SIM card (date to be set with Skysat customer service, who will contact you).

This is an activation service, not a physical product. When ordering, you will need to provide us with your Iridium SIM card identifier (ICCID) and, if applicable, its line number (MSISDN). We will verify the Skysat origin of your SIM and its eligibility, then remotely activate the 100-minute plan on your card. The one-month validity period begins at the time of this activation.

No, this subscription is exclusively compatible with Iridium network phones and terminals. It will not work with devices from other networks such as Inmarsat, Thuraya, or Globalstar. You need an Iridium SIM card and an Iridium device (for example, Iridium 9555, 9575 Extreme, Iridium GO!).

Unused minutes at the end of the 1-month validity period are lost. However, if you purchase and activate a new prepaid top-up before the expiration date of the current one, the carry-over of the remaining minute balance will be subject to verification by our services of the line's eligibility conditions and the Iridium plan.

Once your 100 minutes of credit are used up, you will no longer be able to make outgoing calls. Your service will be suspended until you purchase a new prepaid top-up to credit your SIM card again.

Yes, the 100-minute credit can be used for services other than voice, but the deduction rate is different. Sending an SMS or using data will consume your minutes at a different rate. An SMS is typically deducted at 6 units per message, which is equivalent to 6 seconds of a voice call to a landline or mobile phone (billed at 60 units per minute).

The Iridium network provides 100% global coverage. Thanks to its constellation of 66 low-orbit satellites, you can communicate from any point on the planet, including oceans, deserts, and polar regions (Arctic and Antarctic), where other networks do not operate.

No, it is not necessary to purchase a new SIM card if you already have an Iridium SIM card provided by Skysat. This top-up can be applied to an existing, active, and eligible Iridium SIM card, or to a new SIM card provided by Skysat that you are activating for the first time with this plan. If your SIM card was not provided by Skysat, it cannot be activated or topped up by our services.

The 100-minute countdown is based on standard calls (e.g., Iridium to a landline or mobile phone). Calls to special numbers or other satellite networks (Inmarsat, Thuraya, etc.) are billed at a higher rate and will therefore consume your minute credit much faster.

No, this is a 100% prepaid plan with no commitment. You pay once for 100 minutes valid for 1 month. There is no contract, no fixed monthly fee, and no risk of overuse. Once the credit or validity expires, the line simply deactivates until the next recharge.

No, Skysat can only activate an Iridium subscription on a SIM card provided by Skysat. A SIM card purchased from another reseller cannot be activated by our services. If you have an Iridium SIM card not provided by Skysat, you will need to acquire a Skysat SIM card to benefit from our subscriptions. We invite you to contact us before any purchase if you have any doubt about the origin of your SIM card.
