Iridium pre-paid services
Iridium offers two pre-paid solutions for use with Iridium satellite services: 1. Pre-paid SIM service consists of one pre-paid SIM card with one account. Airtime can be purchased in bundles at affordable prices. 2. Crew calling service consists of a SIM card with one post-paid account (for the captain) and any number of pre-paid scratch cards. The post-paid account is protected by an authorization code to ensure that only the captain can access it. Pre-paid scratch cards can then be purchased by the crew and used at will. This option eliminates the hindrance of accounting for crew/workman calls. |
