What to know before you buy
- Free trial: 100 MB for 7 days at no cost, on every island except St. Maarten.
- The plan starts when you first use data, not when you buy it. GigSky says you have up to 365 days to install a plan after buying it.
- Hotspot works if your phone supports it; connected devices use your plan’s data.
- Top-ups depend on the plan. If yours allows them, the option shows in the GigSky app.
- In the Bahamas, Jamaica, the Cayman Islands and the Dominican Republic the cheapest plan is a 1-day pass with 3.5 GB, good for a single port day.
What’s good
- A free 100 MB trial on 10 of the 11 islands, and hotspot is allowed.
- Plans from 1 day to 180 days.
What’s not
- Network names are missing for a few islands (Bermuda, Jamaica, the Cayman Islands).
- Refunds are reviewed case by case and may come as GigSky credit.
Refunds and support
You request a refund in the GigSky app or web portal, under Transaction History. Each request is reviewed on its own; an approved refund goes back to your card or comes as GigSky credit, which never expires. GigSky’s terms say it may refund a plan that was barely used (under 1 GB) because of a problem with its service, but it doesn’t refund unused data on a working plan.
Alternatives to GigSky
- Saily: plans for every island that start when you land.
- Airalo: the most plans of any provider on this site.
- Roamless: pay-as-you-go credit that never expires.

Common questions
Is GigSky’s free trial really free?
Yes. Every island except St. Maarten has a 100 MB plan valid for 7 days at no cost. It’s enough to check that the eSIM installs and connects, not for a whole trip.
When does a GigSky plan start?
When you first use data in the destination. You can install it up to 365 days after buying.
Can I use GigSky as a hotspot?
Yes, if your phone supports hotspot. Any devices you connect use your GigSky data.
