AT&T now offers 24-hour unlimited cellular data passes for iPad users at $3 per day. The new offering requires no contracts, subscriptions, or credit checks.

The carrier's "Unlimited Day Pass" targets users who need occasional iPad connectivity without committing to monthly plans. Available starting today in the US, the passes provide full unlimited data access for 24 consecutive hours. The service is open to anyone, including non-AT&T customers. No signup process beyond payment is required, making it accessible for travelers, students, or anyone needing temporary connectivity. AT&T joins other carriers offering flexible, short-term data options as consumer preferences shift away from traditional contracts. The $3 price point positions the day pass as a cost-effective alternative to monthly plans for light users or those with sporadic connectivity needs. The passes can be purchased directly from AT&T and activate immediately upon purchase.
