Guatemala runs on prepaid. Tigo and Claro split nearly the whole market between them, and those lines run on saldo that gets topped up as needed. That is where we are opening next, and a recarga will reach a Tigo or Claro line in about a minute.
When it launches you will enter the number with the +502 country code, pick the carrier and the amount in US dollars, and pay. The phone in Guatemala will be credited in quetzales, ready for calls, messages, or the data and social packs both carriers sell.
Tigo is the bigger network, especially outside the capital, and its packages bundle WhatsApp and Facebook -- a small recarga often renews the whole thing. Claro lines work the same way with their own pack lineup. Either way there is nothing to do on the phone's side; the carrier confirms the credit by SMS.
A $2.99 fee with Apple Pay or Google Pay per topup when it launches. The amount you pick will go to the phone. Leave your email on this page and we will write to you the day Guatemala goes live.
