How do Group plans work?

It's simple! Once you've joined Contact mobile on any plan, you can start a Group and add up to four other people to join you. If they are on the same plan as you then they'll only pay $25 per month.

 

So if you choose a Large $80 plan for yourself, you can add up to 4 of your favourite people to your Group and if they are also on a Large plan then they will pay just $25 each per month.

 

There always needs to be a Group owner paying the full amount for their plan in any Group, so if your Group owner leaves then another member of your Group will start paying full price for their plan instead.

Frequently asked questions

Keeping your existing number

You sure can! Just follow the easy set up steps when you put your new Contact SIM into your phone, and we’ll handle the rest.
Just sign up with us and when you insert your new Contact SIM, or scan your eSIM QR code for the first time, you’ll be asked for some details to help us transfer your number across.  

Helpful tip! Make sure the details you enter exactly match the details you have linked to your account with your old provider. Any differences in account name, phone number, type of service, or any other details, could lead to a delay in your number being transferred. 

Whether you’ve selected a physical SIM or an eSIM, you'll then need to put your old SIM back into your phone or select your old eSIM setting, so you can approve the transfer via an automated text, which should arrive within 15 minutes.  
 
Once you have approved the transfer, you can put your new Contact SIM back into your phone, or switch profile to use your new eSIM. 

How does 3 months free work?

Just sign up for mobile on any of our plans before 30 June 2024 and we'll make sure your first 3 months of plan charges are removed from your monthly bill. You will only be charged for services not included in your plan.
You can change plan anytime via the Contact mobile app and the change will take effect at the end of your current billing period. Though if you change during your free 3 months, you will forfeit the rest of your free period, so it might be best to hold off until your offer period comes to an end.

Any calls or services not covered by the cost of your plan will be charged. For example, international calls and texts, picture messages and roaming charges.

After the 3 month free period, you will be charged the monthly cost of the mobile plan you have chosen.
It’s always a good idea to take a look through the terms and conditions for any offer. Read the full Offer T&Cs here.

Getting started

Just look for the Join Us button or you can start by choosing a plan here. It only takes a few minutes to get started.
You’ll need an email address, your physical address and you’ll also be asked to provide a credit or debit card to be used for your monthly payments.
Signing up takes just a few minutes. We’ll then courier a physical SIM to you or generate your eSIM so you can get connected right away.  

The physical SIM should arrive within normal courier times, approx 3-7 working days depending on where you live. You’ll receive an shipping email notification once its on its way.

The eSIM QR code will be available after you checkout and also in the Order History section of your account.
If you are looking to get a new phone number with Contact then you'll need to cancel your service with your current provider. Your current provider will also be able to confirm if there are any remaining costs or fees to be paid.  Once you have a confirmed end date for your service, just scan your new eSIM or pop your new Contact SIM in your phone on that day to get set up. You will only be charged for your new plan once you've set up your SIM.
 
If you are bringing an existing number with you to Contact, then you will be prompted to do this during SIM set up. Once you have requested transfer of your number and this has been confirmed, your old service will be cancelled. There's no need to get in touch with your current provider directly, but any outstanding fees will still need to be paid.

Once you have received your eSIM QR code, there are two options depending on whether you are on a desktop device or a mobile phone. 

  • To get set up via desktop, simply scan the QR code using your phone’s camera, or head to your phone settings, choose to add an eSIM and then scan the QR code. 
  • If you are on your phone, take a screenshot of the QR code, head to your phone settings, choose to add an eSIM then open your photos to scan the QR code from the earlier screenshot. 

Once the code is scanned, you’ll be asked to enter the confirmation code sent with your QR code. This will generate an SMS to confirm you’re all set to activate your eSIM! 

Our mobile plans

Max Speed data is data that is delivered at the maximum available speed on the network.  Once your plan's Max Speed data allowance has been exceeded, you’ll still have endless data but at reduced speeds of 1.2 Mbps. 

We’ve got most things covered but some services or numbers may incur additional charges. For example, sending and receiving multi-media messages. To avoid surprises come billing time, make sure you check the Important info section on each of our plans.
We know sometimes things change so you’re free to change plans whenever you need to. If you decide to change plans, or cancel your plan with us, you’ll need to pay for your current plan up to the end of your monthly billing period.
We offer 5G on all our plans. Check out this coverage map to check if it’s available where you are.
Yes. You’ll need a compatible phone and have it switched on in your settings. Refer to your phone’s specs for more info.
Screening or just busy? We got you. Voicemail is included with all Contact mobile plans. 
Hotspot is available, and free! Just remember hotspot uses your mobile data so you might reach your Max Speed data allowance earlier. 

Who can get Contact mobile?

No, but we can offer you some sweet deals on electricity, broadband and gas as well as a sharp mobile plan. Check out our energy and broadband plans. You need to be 18 or older to sign up to our energy and broadband plans.
Want to take advantage of our great mobile prices and data allowances? Go for it! You can add up to 4 additional mobile numbers on each account. The fair use policy applies, but if it works for you, it works for us!

Group plans

When you take out any Contact mobile pay monthly plan, you can invite up to four other Contact mobile customers to join you in a Group and if they are on the same plan as you then they’ll pay $25/month for their plan.

Set up a Group and start inviting your favourite people to join you, or join an existing Group set up by another Contact mobile customer.

If you already have a Contact mobile account head to the Groups section in your account and start inviting your favourite people. Just make sure they’ve already registered for a Contact mobile account as well.

Once someone from your Group has invited you, sign into your Contact mobile account, head to the Groups section, click the envelope and accept the invite.

If you’re a new Contact mobile customer, then just make sure you accept your invite before activating your SIM. This will make sure you pay the $25 Group price from day one.

Any Contact mobile customer can be in a Group, as long as they have an active Contact mobile account. You don’t even need to live at the same address. Any Contact mobile account holder can join a Group and start saving!

There will be separate bills for each group member and these will be charged monthly to the credit card used during sign up. The person who started the Group will pay for the full priced plan, with all other Group members paying $25 per month for their plans.

If the person who started the Group, leaves the Group, then the Group member who has been part of the Group the longest will then start paying the full price of their plan instead of $25 per month.
