Key takeaways

  • Optus is offering a 12-month discount and bonus data on two of its SIM-only plans for the first year.
  • You'll also get a $150 Visa gift card through Finder when you keep your service active for at least 90 days.
  • If you'd rather go prepaid, there's a $75 gift card on offer as well, which brings Optus's 186-day plan down to around $55 for 140GB.

It's fairly uncommon to see Optus running 12-month discounts on its SIM-only plans, which is why these deals stood out to us this month.

You'll get $15 a month off for the first year, plus bonus data included.

If you sign up through Finder, you'll also score a $150 Visa gift card on top.

These offers are available until 17 May 2026 for new customers.

Some perks of signing up to these plans include:

  • No excess data charges. Your speeds will be capped at 1.5Mbps if you run out of data for the month.
  • $5 for 5GB daily roaming add-on to use in 150+ destinations.
  • Option to quickly sign up with an eSIM if you have a compatible handset.
  • Unlimited international calls and texts on the higher data plan (Optus Choice Plus $65)

Is there a catch?

Not really, other than the fact that you need to be a new customer.

For the Finder Reward specifically, you'll need to keep your service active for at least 90 days.

You can check the full T&Cs for the details.

Don't mind a longer-term commitment?

If you prefer long-expiry prepaid plans, there is a $75 gift card available on the plans in the table below.

The 186-day plan works out to around $55 for 140GB when you factor in all the offers.
