Adding Airtime

Your Grenada SIM card (Digicel) comes with an initial starter airtime credit of EC$10 (approx. US$3.72). Additional credit is available through the purchase of airtime vouchers, also called FLEXtime vouchers, as they are referred to locally (not another SIM card). These airtime vouchers are available from Telestial (Voucher PIN will be sent via email) and locally in Grenada at local convenience stores, Digicel shops and authorized dealers. FLEXtime airtime vouchers are available in several denominations:

EC$10 (approx. US$3.72)
EC$15 (approx. US$5.60)
EC$25 (approx. US$9.31)
EC$40 (approx. US$15)
EC$70 (approx. US$26)

Simply scratch off the grey protective layer to reveal your voucher code. When punched into the keypad of your international cell phone, the voucher code will credit your SIM card the respective EC (Eastern Caribbean Dollar) denomination you purchased.

Airtime vouchers are available locally in Grenada at local convenience stores, Digicel shops and authorized dealers and any hawker on the street shouting, "Get your phone cards!"

Remember: Do not purchase another SIM card when your airtime credit is depleted. You only need a recharge voucher. Your incoming calls are always free, even when you run out of airtime.

Additional airtime for this SIM card is available directly from Telestial

Service Life

If you do not recharge your account within 6 months, your mobile phone number will be recycled and any remaining airtime credit will be forfeit. To get connected again you will be required to purchase another SIM card. The 6 month period starts the day you arrive in Grenada.

More Information and Resources

Keeping in touch while in Grenada can be very a frustrating and expensive experience without an international cell phone and Grenada SIM card.

Sometimes a payphone takes coins (But how many is anybody's guess!!!), other times a proprietary calling card and still others only a credit card will do with accompanying instructions that would take a week to understand.

Grenada cellular phone rentals can significantly cut down on the frustration of calling home while abroad but the airtime rates would bankrupt all but the thickest of wallets. Airtime rates for a Grenada cell phone rental can typically start at $1.50 and may be as high as $2+/minute.

Think you got a deal on your world phone and plan on doing some international roaming? With international roaming charges the airtime rate you will pay is out of this world.

The Grenada prepaid SIM chip is a quick and easy way to convert your existing world phone into a prepaid Grenada cell phone for Grenada and as discussed is more economical then a Grenada cell phone rental. For your next assignment or vacation in Grenada, this SIM chip (combined with an unlocked GSM World cell phone) helps you stay connected while avoiding those international roaming surcharges that always accompany your 'home' SIM card while abroad. We offer a growing selection of prepaid SIM Cards for other international destinations as well as a wide variety of GSM cell phone accessories and GSM international cell phones.
