  • ~$5.59 after 15% cashback (excl gst) rate

    Great value for 16 weeks and low/mid bandwidth users.

  • Best thing of this is that you can choose a number. Ideal for people who wants to get a new permanent number.

    Credit to silverrat23 for this very helpful write-up. Followed the process step-by-step while redeeming a previous deal and worked like a dream. Hope it helps someone else:


    For those wondering on how the process works, these steps below detail the porting process from a carrier to Amaysim. An optional $2 sim from the shops can be used to speed up the process.

    • If you're an existing Amaysim customer and want to take advantage of this, it requires porting out of (and abandoning) Amaysim to another carrier, like Telstra, then back into Amaysim. The purpose of this process is be considered as a new customer, all while retaining your phone number. I recommend porting to Telstra, since their process is fairly quick and painless. Their Sim cards are also free from their website, which I recommending stockpiling a few to keep them handy. If you're not an existing Amaysim customer, skip this step.
    • Purchase that Groupon code and click on the link in the PDF file, which will bring you to the checkout page with the plan pre-selected.
    • Sign up to a new Amaysim account. To be safe, use a new email address. The rest (name, address, payment method) can be the same.
      During checkout, select previous provider and phone number, and at the end, apply the Groupon Code in the "Promo Code" box. This will bring the plan to $0, since this was already purchased on Groupon.
    • Enter a payment method, which is usually a credit card. But don't worry, this can be removed later. Then, submit and complete the order.
    • Go on Live Chat and request the plan to be activated on a $2 Amaysim sim instead. This is used to speed up the process and avoid the default 5-day mail delivery of a Sim. When prompted, provide them with the Sim card number and make sure the porting occurs with the $2 Sim. If you are happy to wait however, skip this step.
    • While the porting is in progress, which usually takes a few hours, log into the newly-made account and change the payment method to BPay. This is found somewhere in the settings page (location of that differs between devices). With Amaysim's payment system, a valid payment method is required for the plan to auto-renewal every 28-days/month/billing cycle (despite the whole thing costing $0), hence the use of BPay as a placeholder.
    • Wait for email to confirm the number has ported over and we're done

      One step you should do differently to maximise your credit.

      Don't click on the link in Groupon voucher to sign up to Amaysim. Instead use an Amaysim referral link and sign up this way. Select the correct plan when signing up and then at checkout enter the code from the Groupon voucher. By doing this you (and the referrer) will get $10 credit in your Amaysim account.

        What a great way to get some extra credit, with I knew this yesterday… happened to activate an amaysim sim. Will do this in the future.

      • How long does it take for the referral credit to be applied? Does the new service need to be activated first (porting)? Thanks

        • +1

          From memory, the referral credit gets applied a day after joining Amaysim. You will receive a txt message from Amaysim informing you that the bonus credit has been applied to you account. No the service does not need to be activated first.

    • Awesome detail of steps, thx. A bit of a noob, sorry, are you saying you can port to the telstra free sims without the need to purchase a plan? I always thought you had to at least put a recharge on them?

      • +1

        There’s no need to recharge with Telstra. During sign-up, you have to select a plan, but it doesn’t ask for card details.

        So yes, you can port to Telstra for free.

        • +1

          thank you very much. Very good to know!

        • Sorry I am a little confused.
          So you go onto the Telstra website choose sim only plans - choose eg $50 small 15GB plan.
          Fill in the details and port number. Does that mean your plan is activated and you get a physical sim or does it mean your number transfers before you activate your plan?

          — and then you transfer it out before you activate the plan?

          • @prozerran: he was referring to this kind of free… remember that if you're porting from network A to network A, it is not a must that you port to network B in between.

  • +5

    So do we get 4 Sim cards with this deal?

    • +4

      Nope, you get one Sim. This deal enables 4 months (actually 28 days) of the 5GB plan for $6.47, which renews at the end of the month.

      • +1

        So it automatically renews 3 more times(every 28 days) after you activate it?

        Edit. See you have answered below. Cheers.

    • +8

      Why down vote people when they ask a genuine question, not everyone is as up to date as you may be "down voter".
      And thank you @silverrat23 for clarifying

        +1

      • welcome to ozbargain

  • So AFTER you activate the first you're no longer a new customer? What do you do with the other 3?

    • +1

      That's not how it works. This deal gets you 4 months' (actually 28 days) worth of the 5GB plan for $6.47 and it automatically at the end of the month.

      You don't have to do anything for 4 months. Set a calendar reminder for 4 months from today, prompting you to either port out or change the payment method back to card if you're keeping it.

  • So is the charges $5.59 (after 15% cashback) for 4*28 days, or I pay $5.59 every 28 days? Do I get 5GB data every 28 days?

    • +2
      • $5.59 (after 15% cashback) for 4*28 days
      • 5GB data every 28 days

      I can't believe that I paid $8.45 for this just a week ago!!

      • I can't believe that I paid $8.45 for this just a week ago!!

        Same here, but then again, my previous 6-month plan was about to expire with 1 day of leeway.

  • This is like Circles but less data and more expensive?

    • +3

      And doesn't require a credit check

      • -3

        who cares about credit check

  • Is this consider one of the better deal for a single data and calls sim? Reason for asking is because I am looking to get about 5-6 sim cards for my relatives when they come over to Australia to attend a cousin's wedding, only staying for a week or so.

  • too bad i can't stack with my maccas monopoly prize code :(
