Trade your Globalstar for Iridium

This promotion has ended, but you can still purchase Iridium phones, airtime and other solutions from our web store.

When it comes to mission-critical communications, you need 100% reliability. Lives may be at stake. That's why switching to Iridium's proven satellite phone service offers Globalstar customers a reliable communication solution.


Through December 31, 2009, SATTRANS participates in the Iridium Trade-Up program, which provides an incentive to Globalstar phone users in North America to switch to Iridium for a more reliable satellite phone service. Current owners of Globalstar phones and terminals meeting the eligibility requirements can turn in their Globalstar equipment to Iridium and receive $250 back!

How to participate:
1. Purchase a new Iridium 9555 or Iridium ComCenter satellite phone from SATTRANS.
2. Activate the North America monthly account with a two-year service agreement (subject to a $750 early termination fee).
3. Return your Globalstar phone or terminal to SATTRANS. The equipment should power on to qualify for trade-in.
4. Receive $250 credit towards your Iridium service charges.
