Finding a carrier for Apple Watch For Your Kids

Use the family-watch section of Apple’s directory

Apple publishes separate carrier listings for ordinary cellular Apple Watch use and Apple Watch For Your Kids. Start with the family-watch section and select your country. Our setup page includes a dated selection of examples, with a link back to the full worldwide directory.

• Apple: family-watch carrier directory

Confirm the country and account requirements

A provider’s name in a list is a starting point, not confirmation that every account or watch can activate. For example, BetterRoaming sells country-specific family-watch plans and states that its watch plans do not include international roaming. Review the country you are purchasing for before checkout.

Compare a short list, not a wall of prices

Pick two plausible providers and ask each the same questions. A cheaper headline price is not helpful if the account conditions do not fit your household. Save the answers with the date you checked them.

• Confirm Family Setup support for your exact watch and software.
• Check the coverage map for the places you care about.
• Ask about the adult account, identity and billing requirements.
• Compare the complete ongoing cost, included data and cancellation terms.
• Find out who helps with activation if it does not complete.

Take extra care with imported watches

Apple’s cellular watch models use region-specific cellular bands; there is not one model that supports every network worldwide. Ask the provider to check the model number before buying an imported or second-hand watch.

Provider availability and terms can change. We do not sell these plans or guarantee approval. A listing here is not a partnership or an endorsement, and carrier support does not certify OkayTu beta compatibility.
