Bluesky Free Phone Service

Bluesky is a mobile and broadband company that services the American Samoan island. As a participant in the Federal Lifeline program, they offer eligible households 1,0000 local minutes and 4.5GB of data every month free of charge.

You have the option of purchasing a new phone or bringing your own phone. If you want to purchase a phone, you can choose one from their large online selection or stop by one of their locations. With the SIM card, however, you must stop by one of the stores to pick it up. There’s no online purchase option.
