Yomojo mobile review
Our verdict: Yomojo mobile plans offer great value on the Optus 4G network, with bonus discounts available for having multiple plans on a single account.
Besides its cheapest plan, Yomojo mobile plans are all reasonably priced, but are even better value if you have 2 or more plans under the same account.
Each plan on the same account attracts a 2.5% discount on plan fees, starting at 5% for 2 plans and going up to 15% for 6 bundled plans.
Yomojo could be right for you if:
You're keen on security for your kids. Yomojo lets you run the Family Eye security app so you can track and manage your kids' phone and online usage, for $5 per child.
You're looking for mobile plans for you and your family. Make the most of Yomojo's "family" discount by combining up to 6 plans on a single account.
But keep in mind that Yomojo:
Only has PAYG international roaming. Pay-as-you-go roaming rates can add up quickly, so you're usually better off purchasing a local or travel SIM when heading overseas.
Has credit card processing fees. You'll be charged a 2% extra transaction fee if you pay by credit or debit card.
Yomojo's plans perform well above average across the board, measuring up well to other mobile providers.
When it comes to getting a value for money plan, Yomojo gets even better the more you bundle your plans. Designed for families, the provider will help you save money if you add multiple plans to your account. So if you have:
2 sims - save 5%
3 sims - save 7.5%
4 sims - save 10%
5 sims - save 12.5%
6 sims - save 15%
Good to know: Yomojo's $14.90 "kids" plan only gives 200 minutes of talk, so it might not suit everyone.
Things to watch out for:
Yomojo charges a 2% transaction fee if you pay by credit or debit card.
Coverage
Yomojo mobile uses the Optus 3G and 4G mobile network.
The Optus network reaches 98.5% of the Australian population – more than Vodafone (96%) but less than Telstra (99.5%).
You'll get identical coverage to a plan purchased directly from Optus.
You shouldn't run into any coverage issues in metro areas, but might experience some loss of reception in rural and regional areas.

👪 Family bundling discount
