Set up an iPad data plan

Use your iPad on the go by setting up a data plan or adding an international data option.

Your iPad must have an Apple eSIM, an Apple SIM card in the SIM-card tray, or an AT&T SIM card.

iPads that use an Apple SIM card:

  • iPad Air 2
  • iPad Mini 3
  • iPad Mini 4
  • iPad Pro 12.9
  • iPad Pro 9.7 (has embedded Apple SIM)


If you didn’t buy the iPad from us or you need a new SIM, order an AT&T SIM card online.
