Here's how to set up a Group with your crew
- Sign in to your contact mobile account or open the Contact mobile app
- Head to the My Contact tab and select Groups
- Hit the 'Invite new member' button and enter the phone number of the Contact mobile customer that you would like to invite (they'll need to already be a Contact mobile customer, have a Medium or Large plan and have received their first bill).
That’s it! Just let your Group know that they have an invitation waiting for them in their account so they can sign in and accept.
As long as there is a Group owner paying full price for their plan then all of the other Group members will score themselves the same plan for $25 per month. If the Group owner leaves then another member of the Group will start paying full price for their plan instead.

Once you’ve joined yourself, you can buy additional plans on your same account for people you’d like to be in your Group but don’t have their own account.
Each plan gets its own bill and you can choose different payment cards, which is handy if you’d like those Group members to pay their own way.
Once your extra SIMs arrive, you can add them to your Group following the same steps for setting up a new Group.

When you take out a Medium or Large 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're a new Contact mobile customer then you'll be able to join a Group once you've activated your new SIM. This means your first bill will be for the full price of your plan, with your monthly plan price then changing to $25/month from your second billing cycle onwards.
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 you'll be able to join a Group once you've activated your new SIM. This means your first bill will be for the full price of your plan, with your monthly plan price then changing to $25/month from your second billing cycle onwards.
Contact mobile customers with a Medium or Large plan can be in a Group. You don't even have to live at the same address as the rest of your Group. If you have a Medium or Large plan then you can Group up and start saving!
If you joined Contact mobile on a Small plan before 29/1/24, then you can still Group up and save with other customers who also joined on a Small plan before that date.
There will be separate bills for each group member and these will be charged monthly to the 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.
