Clear Your Doubts

frequently asked
questions

 

ORDERS

 
q: Do I need to rent or purchase a satellite phone?

If you are needing a satellite phone more than 6 weeks out of a year we always suggest purchasing. This will save you money in the long run. If you are just doing a short camping, hiking, or hunting trip, we recommend renting the satellite phone.

 
q: Why do people need satellite phones?

Satellite phones work when nothing else does — during power outages, natural disasters, or in remote areas with no cell service.

 
q: How quickly can I get a satellite phone?

Satmodo can get you a satellite phone or internet SAME DAY! We always recommend planning ahead to save on shipping costs.

 
q: Which satellite phone has the best coverage?

The Iridium network offers truly global coverage, while Globalstar and Inmarsat cover regional areas.

SHIPPING & DELIVERY

 
q: In which countries are satellite phones banned?

Satellite phones are banned in India, Cuba, China, and several other restricted countries. Always check before traveling.

 
q: What are good satellite phones for international travelers?

Iridium phones are ideal for international travelers due to their global coverage.

 
q: What are the benefits of a satellite phone?

They work anywhere on Earth — perfect for natural disasters, hiking, and global travel.

 
q: Will satellite phones work during an earthquake?

Yes. Satellite phones use satellites, not cell towers, so they continue to work during and after disasters.

 
q: Can we talk from a satellite phone to an ordinary phone?

Yes. You can call and receive calls from regular cell or landline phones — even via free second-stage dialing.
