Need only an iPad data plan for 87 year old senior.

I am looking to setup an ipad with just a cellular data plan for my 87 year old father.  Can I try the Visible free option to test the coverage with the ipad?  And can I sign him up for only a data plan to use the ipad that is cellular and wifi (he does not have wifi)?

It goes against Visible's terms and conditions to use a pSIM or eSIM in a device other than a smart phone. Will it work, possibly, but if you have an issue and contact Visible customer service can deny help or even close the account for using an unapproved device. If you want to use a tablet with Visible the viable option is a cheap phone from Visible and use it as a hotspot device to the tablet. 

 

If you are looking for data only plan without a phone plan try doing a search for that kind of service. If you are not on Visible yourself, but on another carrier such as Verizon, AT&T or T-Mo, check to see what a data only line for a tablet would be. I don't know how tablet plans work so check that out and see if that is an option.
