For an alternative service, please consider our.. Passport Service Ideal if you are traveling to multiple countries and are making national as well as international calls.

A T-Mobile German Prepaid SIM Card, in conjunction with the correct unlocked GSM cell phone, allows you to have a German cell phone number and to take advantage of the rates that the locals pay - and without a cellular contract. Best of all, with this card you can receive unlimited FREE incoming calls from anywhere in the world. As an alternative to a German SIM card, you may want to consider the Talk Abroad International SIM card (and add link). While you will not have a German phone number, calls back to the US are less expensive than with a German SIM card and incoming calls are still free. Plus, you can use the Talk Abroad SIM card in over 90 countries.

The SIM card or chip is the "brain" of the phone and is what allows you to make calls within Germany 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. If traveling to multiple countries, we can get you into extra cards so that you can "be local" in those countries as well. We also offer international SIM cards that allow you to roam to multiple countries, while providing a way to add more call credits.

We offer a wide assortment of GSM cell phones for purchase and you can use any of these in conjunction with the SIM cards we offer. However, for added convenience and savings we recommend our package deal of a cell phone and a German SIM card. This Germany package is highly popular with our customers and the GSM phone will also work in 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.
