How Does it Work?
The SatPaq® is the first compact device capable of communicating using GEO (geostationary earth orbit) satellites. We call this communication Direct-to-GEO® or D2G®. The satellites are called geostationary because they don’t move relative to your position on earth. This means the satellites are always in view and your communications are always real time. A major benefit is that these satellites are very inexpensive to use. This allows us to provide affordable service without a monthly fee. Another advantage is that we use technology already developed for the 5.8GHz WiFi band. These chips are already produced in very high volume which means we can build and sell you our Anywhere Communicator at a low cost. Our SatPaq IoT Anywhere™ products share sensor data from local environments using satellite technology. Please contact the company directly for more information on our IoT Anywhere products and services.

Testimonials
"Whether I’m at the beach, in the mountains or on a deserted trail, it’s nice to know that I have the ability to communicate. I’m no longer tethered to cell phone service. SatPaq provides peace of mind."
“The SatPaq is a simple, lightweight way to turn your smartphone into a satellite texting device in remote areas whether I am driving through Nevada with poor cell phone coverage or hiking in the wilderness of our National Parks. If I simply want the weather forecast, to talk to my family or get help, it gives my location and keeps me connected.”
“I'm an avid hiker and backpacker and that takes me to places my cell phone just doesn't work. I've found the SatPaq to be very handy for communicating, especially when I'm out of range.”
"I found the SatPaq to be a lightweight addition to my 10 essentials when on the trail or in the wilderness. It allowed me to stay in contact with family and friends plus they could see my current location. It was super easy to use and I only pay when I use it."
"SatPaq is my home emergency communication device. I don’t know when we will have an earthquake that may cut off *ALL* communication for weeks. I know I have a way to communicate both to family and authorities. I don’t pay a stand-by fee and the battery lasts a really long time. It provides peace of mind!"
"I highly recommend the SatPaq for those who like to explore places where there is no cell coverage. It is easy to use and lightweight. It's an easy way to provide peace of mind to concerned family members when out in the back country."
"As a paraglider, I’m always looking for gear that improves my safety and is lightweight. SatPaq fulfills both. Recently, I had to make an emergency landing far from cell service. I sent and received messages that included my location and my team was able to find me. I take it flying, canyoneering, snowboarding, and hiking. SatPaq is a must have for any adventure enthusiast."
"The SatPaq is an excellent way to communicate where there are no other means. I live and work in the wilderness and the SatPaq is an invaluable tool that increases my safety margin, and that of park visitors. I use it daily to obtain weather forecasts and communicate with other wilderness Rangers. It is a reliable and efficient device that is lightweight and is an essential item in my backpack."
“My wife and I travel around the U.S. by car and frequently camp in remote locations. With the Family Plan, it's nice we can take turns using the same SatPaq with each of our phones for keeping in touch with family and friends.”
“It’s easy to use and light to carry. I feel safer hiking alone, knowing I can get help if I need it. I also love that I only get charged when I actually use it.”
