Sharing your data with other plans
This support article will give you key information about sharing data with other plans. If you have more than one plan on your account that supports sharing, the data will be automatically pooled and shared between eligible plans.
If you’re on a Vodafone Infinite or Plus Plan, you can only share with other Vodafone Infinite or Plus Plans. You can share Max Speed data with a total of 5 Vodafone Infinite or Plus Plans. For all other plans, you can share the data of up to 10 eligible plans on your account. This includes a maximum of 5 SIM Only Plans or Red Plans with a phone.
How to share data with other plans.
If you signed up to more than one plan in store or over the phone, your data will be automatically shared across eligible plans. Vodafone Infinite and Plus Plans can only share Max Speed data with other Vodafone Infinite and Plus Plans.
If you signed up to more than one plan online and you didn’t opt-in to sharing during the checkout process, head in store or call 1555 to share data across your plans.
If you’d like to share data with someone, they can transfer ownership of their plan to you. When the transfer is complete, their plan will be under your account.
If the person you’d like to share with doesn’t have a plan with Vodafone, you can apply to sign them up to a new plan under your account.
You can see the plans that are shared on your account through My Vodafone. To opt-out of sharing, give our team a call on 1555.

If you’ve restricted another plan’s access to the pool of data, they won’t be able to access mobile data. They will however still be able to access data if they connect to a Wi-Fi network.
