If you plan on visiting Australia any time soon, don’t take off without a prepaid SIM card. The Australia SIM card provides a simple, convenient, and affordable way for any traveler to make and receive those all-important calls while abroad.
The prepaid SIM card for Australia is a trouble-free option for using your existing world phone as a prepaid Australian cell phone while you’re in the country at a better rate than you’d pay for an Australian cell phone rental. The SIM chip, combined with an unlocked GSM World cell phone, helps you keep the lines of communication open without being burdened by high international roaming surcharges applicable when you use your “home” SIM card abroad. You’ll also enjoy the benefit of AU$5 (approx. US$3.75) of starter airtime credit, SMS and MMS text messaging, voicemail, a local Australian cell phone number, and free incoming calls. If you have a service-related issue, you can speak with a customer care representative any time for just a nominal fee by dialing 887 from your phone. No yearly contract, monthly charges, or credit check is involved.
Your Australia SIM Card will require a SIM-unlocked GSM cell phone that supports the 900 and 1800 frequencies. If you do not have your own international cell phone, we have several models available for your consideration. Please click here for more information.

Adding Airtime
Additional credit is available through the purchase of airtime vouchers, also called reload codes (not another SIM card) in Australia. Airtime vouchers are available locally in Australia at local Tabac shops, convenience stores (7-11), JUST shops and authorized dealers. To recharge your Australia service, simply follow the instructions below.
- Scratch off the protective layer to reveal your recharge voucher code
- Dial 888 and press 1 when prompted
- Enter the 12-digit recharge code when prompted
Remember: Do not purchase another SIM card when your airtime credit is depleted! You only need a recharge voucher! Your incoming calls are always free even when you run out of airtime.
Service Life

If your balance falls to zero, a 30 day grace period applies - during this period you can only receive calls or recharge. If you have not recharged after 30 days your number will be disconnected from the network.
