How we picked theseWe've scored over 280+ mobile plans on everything from cost to data allowance and important features.
Our experts give each plan a score out of 10 - totally fair, with no commercial strings attached.
amaysim came to market in 2010 offering pretty straight-forward plans and strong value for money. In the years since it has largely continued this, although it is now owned by Optus and only runs a prepaid network.
When it comes to amaysim's plans, they become better value the more you spend. If you choose to be on the smaller end of the scale and sign up with a $22 plan, you'll get just 10GB of data or will pay $2.2 per GB.
However, if you choose a larger plan, such as paying $50 per month you will get 120GB of data which is only $0.42 per GB.
Here are a few reasons why we think amaysim offers good value mobile plans:
While data seems to be a focus with many of amaysim's plans, keep the following in mind:
Most of amaysim's 28-day plans are decent value, offering a good balance between data and price. Its long history as a trusted mobile provider helps too.
amaysim offers a good variety in data limits to suit most people, with its 32GB plan being a popular choice on Finder.
amaysim's $22 for 10GB plan is equivalent to $2.2 for 1GB. Entry-level plans around this price point average around $5-$10 per 1GB, which is pretty normal for plans with smaller amounts of data. This makes amaysim's plan pretty decent value for low data users too.
amaysim has 3 long-expiry plans on offer where you can choose between a 6-month or year-long expiry.
Long-expiry plans are often better value than signing onto a regular prepaid plan since you're paying for a longer term of usage upfront. Although obvioulsy they offer less flexibility.
amaysim's year-long expiry plans aren't the most competitive in the market, but could still be worth considering if you enjoy its other plan features.
Its 6-month plan performs more favourably, especially if you're looking to use more than 10GB a month.
While you can't argue with the value, the expiry period means this is only useful if you need a temporary plan for whatever reason or if you're visiting Australia for a week.
Yes, amaysim offers 5G connectivity via the Optus 5G network but only on its 60GB for $55 plan. The rest of amaysim's plans operate on the Optus 4G network.
If you need to get in touch with amaysim, you can contact them 7 days a week in a variety of ways:
While the amaysim app doesn't let you get support, it's highly rated by thousands of users on app stores and offers all the functionality you'd expect. You can recharge, change plans and even leave feedback.
amaysim has a few handy bonus features including:
amaysim offers unlimited data banking on all its prepaid plans, letting you save any data you don't use for a later date.
In fact, it's 1 of only 2 providers to offer unlimited data banking, stretching the value of your monthly data. There's also no expiry on how long you can keep your data for.
If you have friends or family overseas you'd like to keep in touch with, amaysim's international call and text inclusions could come in handy.
You'll get unlimited talk and text to 28 countries or 42 countries depending on which plan you sign up to.
The perk is available across 5 out of 7 of amaysim's plans.
If you're overseas and want to make a few phone calls back home, you'll be able to do so with amaysim's international roaming packs.
Once you've decided which amaysim plan you're after, you can easily sign up online or grab a SIM at your local supermarket if that's more convenient for you. SIM delivery is free via standard postage, but can take up to 10 business days to arrive at your door.
What if I want to keep my current phone number?
amaysim makes keeping your number simple. When you sign up online, you'll get a prompt asking whether you want to keep your current number. Hit yes, and amaysim will handle the transfer within 1-3 business days.
If your current number is under someone else's name (a parent or partner), it might take a little longer. Check our guide on how to transfer ownership of your mobile number.

Why AMAYSIM AND OPTUS ARE BLOCKING MY MESSAGES – ALTHOUGH I HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH MONEY IN MY AMAYSIM ACCOUNT?
Hi Wagner,
Unfortunately, as a comparison site we can’t help with any troubleshooting for the individual providers. This sounds like something you’ll need to contact Amaysim and Optus about. You can call 567 from your Amaysim phone or head to their website for the online chat / email options.
I hope you get this resolved soon!

10 $ plane no GB can i pay for the whole year at once
Hi Bob,
Thank you for leaving a comment.
The $10 plan is a prepaid plan that includes data. You may request via the customer center of Amaysim if this would be possible. You may also check with them regarding pre-paying the plan to 1 year. Hope this helps!
Cheers,
Reggie

Just make sure to review the relevant Product Disclosure Statements/Terms and Conditions when comparing your options before making a decision on whether it is right for you.
