As long as the mobile you're planning to use is unlocked and compatible with 4G VoLTE or 5G, you should be good to go. Optus (which provides the network for your amaysim service) will shutdown the 3G network after September 2024.
amaysim caters to all device types by offering Standard, Micro and Nano SIMs. If you purchase your SIM card online, you'll receive a 3-in-1 SIM so you can punch out the Standard, Micro or Nano SIM your device requires.
Embedded SIM (eSIM) is now available for new amaysim mobile services, check to see if you have a compatible device.
Transferring your mobile number is quick, easy and all online. All you need are your account details with your current Aussie telco - you don't have to cancel your plan with them, all you have to do is kick off the transfer with us. And there's absolutely no paperwork and no downtime.
All our sim-only plans are Prepaid, meaning you'll always pay/recharge for your chosen plan upfront.
This is seamless process if you link a payment method (such as a credit/debit card or PayPal) to your account, as this allows your plan to automatically recharge at the end of each plan period.
Yes, you can. While international roaming can be convenient, it can also be expensive. We recommend you grab a local SIM to get the best value. If you still prefer to enable roaming, simply check out our range of amayzing roaming plans before you take off.
You sure can. amaysim customers stay because they want to, not because they have to.
If you're transferring your amaysim number to a different Aussie telco, simply contact them to arrange the transfer. Your new provider will then touch base with us to organise the transfer and cancellation of your amaysim service.
If you're not transferring your amaysim number, just contact us on Live Chat (or via email if out of hours). Just a heads up that you would lose your amaysim mobile number, along with any unused amaysim credit and/or data and any saved voicemails. If you want to use amaysim again in the future, you'd simply need to buy a new SIM.
