To maximise this deal pay using your 10% off and gift cards. 4000 points are worth $20. So potentially you can have the 140gb for around $105.3 and the 210gb for about $143.3 (using 10% off, using gift cards bought for 4% off and detracting $20 worth of points).
Please note that you need to upload gift card on everyday pay for them to work. They still require a credit card, but if you have enough on gift cards they will just use the balance.

Unlimited Calls/SMS to 28 Countries

    You cannot use gift card to buy Prepaid Sim I believe

    • elecpurch on 26/03/2024 - 20:28

      Yes, did not work for me during the last promo.

        Everyday Pay is gift card in disguise. I bought mine last month.

        • elecpurch on 26/03/2024 - 20:36

          Interesting find. So you add the gift card to Everyday Pay and just pay the entire amount by scanning the QR code? Wonder if this works for using gift cards to pay for gift card 😁

            @elecpurch: I have used by adding to the app as well (bought Vodafone sims using the method)

            @elecpurch: Yes you'll also need to add a credit/debit card to it but as long as the total gift card balance is more than the purchase amount it'll charge from the GCs first. You can add multiple GCs and it's going to be charged automatically on FIFO basis, save you from manually splitting the amount and enter PIN for each card.

      You can't use gift cards to buy Woolworths Mobile (Everyday) SIMs

      You can use gift cards and woolworths dollars to buy other SIMs.

      You don't have to load the gift cards into everyday pay, you can just scan the barcodes at the self-checkout then enter the PIN on the card reader. You still need the human to approve the SIM activation, but that happens first, before you get to the payment screen.

      Bought 3 vodafone 240GB last month with 10% off from everyday extra, then paid with everyday dollars and the rest with gift card

        Last year I did a Woolworths in-store shop which included an Amaysim pack. At the self-checkout I was able to use the monthly 10% off, but it would not let me pay with Woolworths gift cards. I will try again using this Everyday Pay trick.

        • Chris T on 30/03/2024 - 13:55
          +1

          I can report that the Everyday Pay trick did NOT work for me. In the Everyday Rewards app I set up the Wallet with a credit card and some Woolworths gift cards. In the store I first did a test purchase of one small grocery item to verify that Everyday Pay was working. Then I did the main purchase consisting of groceries, an Amaysim $165 Starter kit, and a Belong $45 Starter kit (currently $22). I went to pay, waited for the staff member to validate the Starter kits, I accepted the 10% discount, and then the Everyday Pay app displayed an error. I don't recall the exact wording but it was something like "Invalid item for this payment type".

          The staff member told me the usual story about Starter kits being like gift cards so they couldn't be purchased with gift cards. Fortunately he generously rearranged my items into two separate purchases, one for the groceries and one for the Starter kits, with both getting the 10% discount and the only groceries being paid with gift cards.

          I wonder why it works for some people but not me.

      • DavyD on 02/04/2024 - 22:21

        Just back from Woolies, tried to use e-gift card for the sim plan. This action will freeze their softwear. I guess the onyl method is used the everyday pay from the above threads?

  • mynameisborat on 26/03/2024 - 20:22

    OP, which gift card is available for 10% off?

    • Dollar General on 26/03/2024 - 20:24
      +1

      Think OP means 10% off a shop via everyday mobile or insurance. Not sure 10% off applies to mobile plans

      • Brick50 on 26/03/2024 - 21:02

        I have everyday extra for 10% off one shop a month
        Want to buy 2 sims in 1 transaction so I get 10% off both. Would I get the 4000 bonus points for each sim or just once per transaction?

        • Dollar General on 26/03/2024 - 21:21

          I dunno

        • pman54 on 26/03/2024 - 22:03

          Should be activated before 23/4/2024 for some packs or before 16/04/2024 to get bonus points.

          • Brick50 on 27/03/2024 - 17:55
            +1

            @pman54: Says purchased before 16/4 not activated

        • cloudy on 27/03/2024 - 06:32

          I’m gonna guess one lot of 4000 points

        • brianmau on 27/03/2024 - 15:05

          Fine print says "Limit 3 per customer" so I believe you get 4000 bonus points for each SIM purchased, plus double base points for being an everyday extra member. Monthly 10% discounts upto $500 so if you buy 3 of the $189 you only get $50 off if you're gonna buy 3. Also check if you have those "spend x get y points" offer and boost accordingly.

  • ATTS on 26/03/2024 - 20:27

      Wondering this also!

      • fozzie on 26/03/2024 - 21:43

        Very hard to tell. The only other great deals I have seen lately are the Vodafone 1 year from Woolies and Kogan half price. I haven’t seen as many good deals as last year, but maybe that will change.

    • timhn on 26/03/2024 - 21:41

      The expiration is on the package - I think it's 6 months from purchased date.

      I think you weren’t much worse off as it was $165 I believe, so only $6 worse in points.

  • Brick50 on 26/03/2024 - 20:59

    Coles mobile 1 year plan 210gb, $189 but no bonus points. https://colesmobile.com.au/home/left-image/product/84

    • fozzie on 26/03/2024 - 22:47

      Yes, port out and back in. Easy to do! Coles looks good but dearer and no esim. Also less international countries.

      If esim or international isn’t important to you catchconnect are doing 200gb for $150. Topcashback gives 5% cashback so paying about $143.25 after cashback (hence cheaper than the 210gb at Woolies, but potentially same cost if you have a 10% off and discounted gift cards).

      • lordra on 26/03/2024 - 23:21

        Do you have any recommendations for who to port out to?

    Amaysim’s online system and app functionality is fantastic. I use both Amaysim and Woolies mobile

    • fozzie on 26/03/2024 - 22:49

      I agree, esim it’s also great. The only thing I don’t like it’s the internet as it doesn’t seem to be that fast even though I’m in Sydney CBD. I will personally go to Vodafone in June when my Amaysim expires (bought starter packs from Woolies last month and on standby for me and husband).

  • Techefy on 26/03/2024 - 23:25

    Im trying to decide on which sim to buy, whether this amaysim 140gb plan for ~$125 or the catch connect 120GB for $119.
    https://catchconnect.com.au/home/left-image/product/30

    Both uses the Optus network. I don't mind the difference in data we get (as Im not going to fully use that anyways). Can someone help me to take a decision.

    • fozzie on 26/03/2024 - 23:28

      Customer service is better with Amaysim (very quick via app). Also if you convert your points to Qantas they are worth more (about 1.3 hence you are getting around $26 worth). You also don’t need to wait for catch having to send sim.

      • Techefy on 26/03/2024 - 23:42

        Thanks mate. Do you know whether we can expect the same signal quality from the 2 providers as they use the same network or are there any other factors to consider. Specially im keen on getting good signal inside shopping malls as my current telstra sim is horrible at it.

        • fozzie on 26/03/2024 - 23:47

          They are basically the same as Optus. I would possibly just try to get a one month before committing. I’m not finding Amaysim brilliant at the moment and I’m in Sydney cbd.

  • Pusheencat on 27/03/2024 - 04:51

    Amaysim was completely unusable in ADL metro. Slow as snails so that navigation with Google maps would fail all the time. Had to swap to something under Telstra, but still not sure if it's an Amaysim or Optus issue

    Caveat emptor

  • branners on 27/03/2024 - 07:33

    Really happy with Amaysim. Did a year with them, ported away to get the next 'new customer' deal last Black Friday, then ported back on a 12-month deal. Happy with the coverage, good service and a usable app. My wife's deal is about to end and will have no hesitation on picking this up and switching her from Coles Mobile at the end of next month

    I've been mostly happy with Amaysim. Last time I ported out (Moose) I got an incentive to return to Amaysim with deal $15 per month with 18GB. I don't think I can ever beat this deal. :)

    • fozzie on 27/03/2024 - 09:13

      I think that is very cheap. If you can't be bothered to change all the time you are better off sticking with them. I usually always get deals for about the equivalent of $9-10 a month and I have fun moving/hunting for deals

        Actually, I picked up more than that, there were extra points as part of the 10 times points promotion that started on the 25th (for spending more than $150 in one shop).

          Added Gift Cards to App

          • Scanned Everyday Pay QR in store
          • Scanned 2x $165 sims down to $145 each + $50 random groceries (not required)
          • Redeemed Everyday Extra 10% off
          • Redeemed $40 EDR dollars that I had existing
          • Remainder was paid with my gift card automatically

    So nearly 3 months to activate the pack.

      Do you mean both 210GB and 140GB plans ?

      Edit: i just chatted in amaysim, even today is public holiday, instantly there was somebody to answer! 👍🏻 he said have 90 days to activate any plans purchased at retail partners. However if activate after 90 days, the value will be forfeited and become a $2 starter pack 🫠
