If there is no sim card tray, how can you get an internet data plan? I don't want to have to keep using public Wi-Fi. And I need to be able to access the internet, get emails & notifications on the go.
How can I get on some kind of plan without the sim card? Is there something online I could get?
iPad (6th gen) WiFi
Whilst you cannot add Cellular service to a WiFi Only model of iPad (it has no Cellular radio hardware), you can purchase a Cellular hotspot Router from your chosen Cellular operator - or from many electronics retailers - to which you can add a Cellular Service plan.
These devices are often known a Mobile Broadband, or MiFi. The device creates a WiFi hotspot (similar to a Cellphone) - to which you simply connect the iPad over WiFi.
Alternatively, if you have a cellphone and your tariff/contract supports hotspot, you may already have the means to use the Cellular service that you already have.

If your model is "wifi only" (not wifi+cellular) you can't get any cellular data plan.
