What if I told you that there's a service provider that works all over the world? Wouldn't you be intrigued? One of the biggest companies in the world Alphabet has created Google Fi and we are indeed fascinated by it.
Let's talk about Google Fi and what this awesome service can do for you! But first things first; at this time, Google Fi is only for US-markets, so you won't be able to use or buy it if you are not living in the USA (a VPN would help, but your credit card and home address need to be based in the US).
What is Google Fi?
Google, as we all know, is infamous for its incredibly innovative technologies. Needless to say, they have dominated most of the sectors, and then, they created Fi. Google Fi is a phone service carrier operated by Google. They provide simpler pricing and smarter coverage with it.
The whole point of this service is to give you the best cellular and data coverage. Needless to say, you can call and text both domestically and internationally. However, there are several plans for you to join before you do that.
How does Google Fi work?
You need to remember two things about it. First, there are some devices that are incapable of using it. And second, it uses streamlined billing, and therefore, it does not have any hidden cost. The first step for you is to sign up on Google Fi.
Although the plans only charge you for the data you use, they become free after reaching a certain point. This is what makes Google Fi so great.
The Phone Plans
The last step is to choose the phone plan that works for you. There are two types of plans that Fi provides. The Flexible plan and The Unlimited plan. In the Flexible plan, you pay $20 per month for unlimited calls and messages. Also, you will pay $10/GB for your data usage. If you cross 12 GB, you become eligible to use as much data as you want for free!
The second plan is the Unlimited plan. You will have to pay $70 for unlimited data up to 22 GB per person. You will get free calls to 50+ countries and you will also get free data and texts abroad. Isn't it incredible?
And that sums up the service of Google Fi. The world is truly changing!
A must-have for digital nomads; NordVPN. Don´t connect with public Wi-Fi without it!
