The benefit is available for Visa Platinum and Visa Infinite cards issued in Japan. The card needs to be in your name and the account needs to remain active.
If the plan is not activated within 365 days after redemption, it automatically activates at the end of that period. Your 15 days then begin from that date.
A GigSky eSIM card with a complimentary Visa plan supports international roaming in over 175+ countries. Check the full list here (https://www.gigsky.com/country-list).
Yes, there is no minimum spending requirement and no hidden charge tied to this benefit.
Once every 365 days for each eligible card.
That depends on your eligible Visa card. If you have an eligible Visa Japan Platinum card, you get 1GB of data. If you have an eligible Visa Japan Infinite card, you get 3GB. Both plans stay active for 15 days once the eSIM is installed.
You can claim the benefit once every 365 days for each eligible card. The 15 days do not begin when you redeem the offer in the app. You can redeem it ahead of time and install it later when your trip starts.
No, redeeming the benefit does not start the 15-day period. The countdown begins when the eSIM is installed for your trip. You can redeem the offer early and save it until you are ready to travel.
In some situations, yes. For example, if the eligible Visa card expires or the account is no longer active, access to the benefit may no longer be available.

Yes. Because GigSky provides you with a data-only eSIM, your phone number doesn’t change. So, you can stay logged into your usual messaging app accounts with uninterrupted access to your contacts and conversations. However, your home network provider may apply additional charges if you make or receive calls or send texts in your destination country without using internet-based apps like WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger.
The list is long, but the two primary benefits are convenience and efficiency. Because there’s no need for a physical SIM, you don’t need to worry about switching, losing, or damaging your temporary eSIM or original SIM card. Plus, eSIM carrier activation is straightforward, and network switching is automated for effortless connectivity.
Your phone needs to support eSIM and also be unlocked. To check eSIM compatibility, dial *#06# on your phone. If you see an EID number, your device supports eSIM.
To check if your phone is unlocked, go into your phone settings and look for “SIM restrictions,” “Carrier lock,” or “Network lock.”
Download the GigSky app and open the offers section. Tap the Visa banner and enter your Visa card details to check eligibility. This is only for verification. You will not be charged.
If your card is eligible, your benefit appears in the app and you can redeem it whenever you are ready.
No. This service uses an eSIM, which is built digitally into your compatible phone. Everything is set up inside the GigSky app.
No, your connection stops once you use all the data. Nothing is charged unless you decide to buy another plan yourself.
You can start with the GigSky Help Center. If you still need assistance, you can contact GigSky support directly through the app or support website.
GigSky coverage is available in more than 175 countries and regions. You can see the full destination list here.
The connection stops. You are not charged automatically. GigSky sends you a notification when you reach 80% of your data usage. If you need more data, you can buy another plan directly in the app and you get an automatic discount depending on your card.
The GigSky eSIM connects automatically to the best available local networks in your destination. In most places, you can access 4G or 5G coverage if the local network supports it.
Yes, eligible Visa Platinum and Visa Infinite cardholders receive 30% off paid GigSky data plans after card verification in the app.
Yes, you can. Some travelers keep their Japanese line active for calls or SMS while using GigSky for data. Just remember that your Japanese carrier may still apply international roaming charges if roaming stays turned on.
