About eSIMs in Australia
Choose an Australia eSIM with a data allowance and validity period suited to your trip. Plans range from 0.1 GB to 50 GB, with options lasting from 1 day to 180 days, as well as unlimited data plans.
Coverage & networks
These Australia eSIMs connect to Optus and Telstra 5G networks. They are data-only plans, so calls and texts are not included.
How much data you need
For occasional messaging, maps and light browsing, a smaller allowance such as 0.1 GB, 0.5 GB or 1 GB may be suitable. If you stream media, use navigation frequently or share your connection, consider 3 GB, 5 GB, 10 GB, 20 GB or 50 GB. Unlimited data is also available.
Setting it up
Select a validity period that matches your stay, with options from 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, 15, 30, 31 or 180 days. Top-ups are supported, so you can add data instead of buying a new plan if you need more.
