GigSky is a data-only service, so it does not support SMS or traditional voice calls. However, there are a number of Voice over IP (VoIP) and messaging services available that will enable you to send messages and make voice calls using GigSky. Please note that GigSky cannot be held responsible for the performance of third party products or services - refer to our Terms and Conditions for details.

Apple iPhone users: While iMessage will work over Wi-Fi and GigSky Data, there are settings that will send a message as an SMS/MMS if an internet connection cannot be found and this will trigger roaming charges. Therefore, please go to the Messaging settings on your iPhone and turn off Send as SMS.

Yes. If you make or receive phone calls or send SMS messages while travelling, you will be charged roaming fees. To avoid incurring daily roaming charges from your domestic carrier when traveling, turn off their daily roaming add-on. These add-ons have names like “Roam Like Home” (Rogers), “Roam Better” (Bell), or "Easy Roam" (Telus). If you then need to make or receive voice calls, or send SMS text messages, you will incur a pay-per use charge at your domestic carriers international roaming rate. Please check with your domestic carrier for clarification on their roaming charges before travelling.

Apple iPhone users should turn off Send as SMS in the Messaging settings to prevent iMessage sending a message as an SMS/MMS if an internet connection cannot be found.

Apple iPhone users should also make sure that Allow Cellular Data Switching is turned off and that Data Roaming is turned off for your domestic carrier's SIM. This will stop your device from accidentally using your domestic carrier's roaming data if the GigSky service is not available for any reason.

‍

If you use your mobile phone to call GigSky while travelling internationally, then you will incur roaming charges for the call.

The offer may only be redeemed once by the primary cardholder or authorized user, whoever activates first.
