What GigSky benefits will I receive with my eligible Visa Card?

Once I purchase my complimentary or discounted GigSky data plan, how long before do I have to activate it?

After purchasing a complimentary or discounted GigSky data plan at checkout in the GigSky app, cardholders have up to 365 days to activate it by connecting to the GigSky mobile network. At the end of this 365-day period, the GigSky plan is automatically activated.

When does my plan start?

The GigSky data plan will commence after the plan is activated. Keep in mind you have up to 365 days after purchasing your complimentary or discounted data plan at checkout in the GigSky app before it is automatically activated.

Account Management

How do I receive my discounted GigSky data plan?

Eligible Visa cardholders must install the GigSky app on an unlocked eSIM-capable device, create a GigSky account and set up their eligible Visa card as the default payment method to access this benefit.

What happens once my complimentary GigSky mobile data plan ends or if I have used all the available data?

In the event you have used all your allotted data on the complimentary GigSky data plan prior to the end of the 15-/30-day plan duration, you can still purchase an additional discounted GigSky plan as needed.

Where can I find the end date for my complimentary or discounted GigSky Plan?

The plan will indicate its duration (e.g. a 7, 15 or 30-day plan). The duration and end date will commence once your plan is activated. Keep in mind you have up to 365 days after purchasing your complimentary or discounted data plan at checkout in the GigSky app before it is automatically activated. You can see how many days remain before the plan is automatically activated and the number of days remaining on an activated plan in the plan dashboard found on the home screen of the GigSky App.

Card on File

What happens if I use a different card than my default payment card to receive my discounted GigSky data plan?

If you complete your order purchase with a payment method other than the Visa credit card set as the default payment method, you will no longer be eligible for a complimentary or discounted GigSky data plan and you will have to pay the full retail price for one of GigSky’s plans.

What happens if I have multiple cards saved on my profile?

You can have multiple cards saved on your account. Keep your Visa credit card set as your default payment method.

My credit card was recently stolen or lost. I now have a new credit card number, what is going to happen to my benefit?

Don’t worry! In order to retain the benefit all you need to do is log in to your GigSky account and set your default payment method to your new Visa credit card.

My credit card recently expired. I now have a new credit card number, what is going to happen to my benefit?

Don’t worry! In order to retain the benefit all you need to do is log in to your GigSky account and set your default payment method to your new Visa credit card.

 I use Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Samsung Pay as my default payment method, will I still qualify for the complimentary GigSky data plan if I default to a Visa card in my digital wallet?

In order to determine eligibility for complimentary and discounted GigSky data plans, we will need to set up your Visa card directly into the GigSky app as the default payment method outside of Apple Pay, Google Pay or Samsung Pay.
