One size doesn’t fit all when it comes to SIM cards and mobile devices. For example, a Micro SIM card will not fit in an iPad or iPhone because these devices are only compatible with the smaller Nano SIM cards.

Mobile devices use one of three types of SIM cards: Standard SIM cards, the smaller Micro SIM cards and the even smaller Nano SIM cards. Depending on your device, you have to either up-size or down-size your SIM card.

There are two ways to do this:

• You can use a SIM card adapter to up-size a Nano SIM card to a Micro or Standard SIM card and a Micro SIM card to a Standard SIM card.
• A Standard SIM card can be down-sized to either a Micro SIM card or a Nano SIM card by taking it to your nearest mobile phone store to have it cut.

Data is required to browse the internet, download apps, use social media (like Facebook and Twitter), stream videos and music, or send and receive emails. To put it simply, if you are doing any of these things while not connected to a Wi-Fi hotspot then you are using mobile data. Data is used from your data bundle or billed at out-of-bundle rates depending on your chosen plan.

If you have a device that can connect to a mobile network then all you have to do is purchase a data bundle. As a guideline, these devices will have a SIM card slot.

If your device doesn’t have a SIM card slot, it means that you can only connect to a Wi-Fi hotspot. In this case, you will need a modem or router, a SIM card and a data bundle.

Data is measured in Megabytes (mb or MB) and Gigabytes (GB): 1000 MB = 1 GB

Data can be quite costly when used at out-of-bundle rates and can add a nasty surprise to your bill. Therefore, it’s important to determine how much data you need upfront so that you can purchase an appropriate bundle.
