Vaya mobile plans

Compare Vaya's low-cost plans to find the best value match for your budget and save.

Is Vaya right for me?

  • What does Vaya offer? Vaya plays it simple with just two types of SIM-only mobile plans: month-to-month plans and six-month plans. Both operate on the Optus 3G and 4G networks.
  • Product highlights: Six-month plans include plenty of bang for your buck, data caps are some of the highest in the SIM-only space.
  • Watch out for: Vaya is all about simplicity with its mobile plans, so you won't find any international calls or other extras included with its plans.

Vaya month-to-month plans

Vaya's month-to-month plans explained

Vaya's most basic SIM-only mobile plans are its month-to-month Unlimited plans which operate on the Optus 3G and 4G networks. All plans come with unlimited standard national calls and texts plus a quantity of data relative to your monthly plan fee.

Excess data is charged at the industry standard $10/GB, which means you'll incur a $10 fee as soon as you go over quota, but then have an extra 1GB of data added to your plan for the remainder of the month. Vaya also charges a $5 fee for plan changes if you wish to change tier.

Vaya 6 Month plans

Vaya's 6 Month plans explained

Vaya's six-month plans largely mimic its month-to-month Unlimited plans except for slightly higher data caps in return for committing to a half-year term. Like the month-to-month plans, these are postpaid affairs with unlimited talk and text on the Optus 3G and 4G networks. Excess data is charged at $10/GB and because you're committing for a six-month term there are also exit penalties to pay if you decide to cancel your contract before it has run its term.

How does Vaya compare?

  • Six-month contracts offer extra value without needing to commit to a full year
  • Higher data caps than a lot of competitors offer
  • Plans are simple but lack extras

Why should you consider Vaya?

Vaya's proposition is one that's strongly centred around simple value and for most people that's probably enough. You don't get a lot of frills when it comes to bundled streaming extras or "data-free" activities on a Vaya SIM, but you're also not paying for extras you may not want or need.

If you do want to make international calls, Vaya sells an optional $2 bolt-on for 200 minutes of international calls on selected plans.

      Hi Nig,

      Thanks for your question.

      Most mobile plan providers allow for number porting. You just have to directly contact your new provider to request this.

      For more information on number porting, please refer here.

      Cheers,

      Hi Kai,

      Thanks for your question.

      Yes, simply call Vaya or login to your ‘My Account’ online to activate Global roaming. Vaya does require a $200 bond payment from a nominated credit card in order to activate Global Roaming.

      Cheers,
      May

      Hi Niro,

      You can order Vaya’s SIM from their web site, but they don’t offer a student discount.

      Regards,

      Alex.
