Traveling internationally should be about exploring new places, visiting loved ones and relaxation—not worrying about unexpected charges. But International Roaming charges can easily add up if you go on a trip without a plan to stay connected while abroad. 

Luckily, Ultra Mobile offers the Go Roam World Pass for predictable coverage while you travel internationally. You can choose when to activate your pass, store passes ahead of time, track usage abroad and stay connected with Ultra-clarity. Want to learn more? Read on.

Traveling to Mexico? While our Go Roam World Pass doesn’t work in Mexico, we offer a Mexico Data Pass if one isn’t already included in your Ultra Mobile plan.

How do you buy a Pass and when can you purchase it?

You can purchase a Go Roam World Pass via the Ultra Mobile App, in your account, or at an Ultra Retailer. You can also purchase one by texting “GOROAM” to 6700. Passes are valid for 360 days and can be purchased before your trip or once you arrive. You can have up to three passes stored.

How do you activate a Pass?

Before you can use your Go Roam World Pass, you need to activate it. You can activate via the Ultra Mobile App, in your account, or at an Ultra Retailer. You can also text “ACTIVATE” to 6700. 

Once you activate your pass, the duration of your pass will begin, and passes expire to the minute. When activating by texting 6700, your passes will activate in the order they were purchased. You can only have one active pass at a time, so activating a new pass will deactivate any balances in an existing pass that is still active. Any unused balances at the end of your pass duration will also be forfeited.
