Yes. Once you’ve signed up to a plan, fill out our Customer Authorisation Form so that we can bring your current number across to us.

You can bring your own compatible 5G device to Vodafone to use with a SIM Only Plan. If you purchased a 5G device from another provider, you may not have access to our full 5G coverage. Check out our approved devices to see which have been tested and optimised for use on Vodafone’s network.

Yes, you can use your eSIM enabled phone with our SIM Only plans.

An eSIM, as opposed to a physical SIM, is a SIM that’s already embedded into selected mobile phones and tablets and allows you to use up to 5 different plans on the same device.

For example, you’ll be able to use one plan for business and another plan for personal use. For more on how to manage your eSIM, check out our support page.

Also known as BYO plans, our SIM Only Plans are perfect if you already have your own phone. The plans come with heaps of data to use in Australia, unlimited standard national calls and text, and selected plans come with standard international call minutes.

With a SIM Only Plan, you’ll only be paying for your plan cost each month without any device repayment fees.

Yes. Data sharing is available with up to 10 services and only the included data is shareable with other Vodafone Infinite (excluding Ultra+ Plan), Vodafone BYOD plans or Plus Plans. Excludes data capped at speeds up to 1.5, 2, 10 or 25Mbps. Data is for use in Australia. T&C apply.

Yes, you can hotspot or tether from your phone to other devices. However, hotspotting or tethering isn’t intended to be used as a substitute for home internet.

A hotspot is a Wi-Fi connection that you access to connect to the internet on your phone, tablet, computer or other compatible device. Tethering is when you use your device’s mobile data to connect a phone, tablet, computer or other compatible device to the internet via Wi-Fi or a USB cable.

Personal use means you can use the data on your own mobile phone, and to other devices personal to you, such as your own tablet. It excludes using your mobile phone’s data on the devices of members of your household or friends or colleagues.

Data on Vodafone Infinite Plans
No excess data charges in Australia. All data for use in Australia within the Vodafone Network coverage area. Vodafone Infinite Plans include an included data allowance (which is data at the fastest speed the Vodafone network can deliver to you, depending on your handset and the time and place you are using data) which will be used first; thereafter data is available at speeds of up to 2Mbps until your next billing month. With 2Mbps you can check your socials, browse the web and stream music but is not suitable for HD video. For more information, check out our speed guide. Tethering is permitted from your mobile phone to your other personal devices only, but must not be used in a modem or as a substitute for a home internet service. Heavy data users may experience slower speeds than other users during busy periods. Actual speeds you reach will continually vary depending on many factors such as device capabilities, location, network congestion, network coverage, if you are roaming and if you are a heavy data user. Fair Use Policy applies.
