Great Option: While not a Barbados number, the Talk Abroad™ SIM card offers great rates in Barbodos and in up to 120 countries worldwide!

A Digicel Barbados Prepaid SIM Card, in conjunction with the correct GSM cell phone, allows you to have a Barbadian cell phone number and to take advantage of the low rates that the locals pay - and all without a cellular contract. The rates are extremely advantageous and even include unlimited FREE incoming calls from anywhere in the world. Digicel has 95% coverage in all major towns and cities across Barbados.

The SIM card or chip is the brain of the phone and is what allows you to make calls within Barbados and internationally. The card is prepaid so that you will never receive a phone bill and will always be in complete control of your expenditures. If needed, you can simply add more talk time to the card by purchasing scratch off recharge cards and entering in the PIN number on the handset. And since incoming calls are always free, even if you have depleted your credit you can still receive incoming calls from anywhere in the world.

The SIM card slips easily into the phone and if needed, you can purchase other SIM cards as well for other countries to where you may be traveling. We also offer international SIM cards that are convenient for travel to multiple countries.

We offer a wide assortment of GSM cell phones for purchase and you can use any of our GSM phones in conjunction with the SIM cards we offer. However, for added convenience and savings we recommend our package deal of a cell phone and Barbados SIM card. This package is popular with our customers and the phone will also work in over 200 other countries (including the US with one of the many carriers using the GSM system). Once you have the appropriate phone, it's easy and inexpensive to purchase and use a SIM card for the next country to which you will travel.
