USA eSIM & SIM Cards for Australian Travellers
Fast 5G data, a real US mobile number, unlimited USA calls and texts, and simple setup before you fly. No contracts, no auto-renewal, and nothing to cancel.
Order before leaving Australia and connect as soon as you land in the USA. Use your phone for Uber, maps, hotel bookings, travel forms, messages and calls without without paying Australian network roaming charges.
Most USA Travel eSIMs Are Data Only. Ours Include a Real USA Mobile Number and Direct USA Network Access.
USA roaming can be confusing. Australian networks charge daily roaming fees, many travel eSIMs are data only, and airport SIMs can mean sorting it out after a 14 hour flight. Our USA plans are prepaid, easy to set up before you travel, and include data, calls, texts, and a real US mobile number. We only sell USA SIMs and eSIMs for Australian travellers, backed by more than 10 years of experience helping customers get connected before they fly.

Most USA travel eSIMs are data only. Ours includes a real USA number.
Many USA eSIMs only give you mobile data, but no phone number, and no calls or texts. That can be fine for maps and browsing, but it can be limiting when you need Uber, bookings, local calls, texts, forms, hotels, restaurants and other USA services. Having a USA phone number when you are traveling in the USA is important: imagine if your rental car breaks down between Los Angeles and Las Vegas and you need to call for help. Or your luggage is lost at LAX and you need to give a phone number for them to call. Or that restaurant reservation in New York that sends you a text when your table is ready.

Australian roaming vs a USA eSIM or SIM
Roaming from Australia may be fine for a short stopover. For longer USA trips, a prepaid USA eSIM or SIM usually makes more sense than daily roaming charges from your Australian provider.

USA travel SIM FAQs
Common USA eSIM and SIM Questions
Quick answers to the questions Australian travellers usually ask before choosing a USA eSIM or physical SIM card.
Will my phone work with a USA eSIM or SIM card?
Most recent iPhones, Samsung Galaxy phones and Google Pixel phones work with our USA eSIMs. Older phones may need a physical USA SIM card instead. Your phone must be 5G. If it is only a 4G phone, it will not work with our USA SIMs and eSIMs.
To check eSIM support, open your phone settings and look for “Add eSIM” or “Add Mobile Plan”. You can also dial *#06#. If your phone shows an EID number, it supports eSIM.
When should I activate my USA eSIM or SIM?
You do not need to choose an activation date when placing your order. After purchase, you submit your activation details separately.
You can prepare your USA eSIM or SIM before you leave Australia. Your USA mobile plan starts when you arrive in the USA and connect to the network.
Do I get a real USA mobile number?
Yes. Your USA eSIM or physical SIM includes a real USA mobile number for calls and texts.
This helps with Uber, hotel bookings, restaurant reservations, online forms, local calls and receiving SMS messages while travelling in the USA. Your family and friends in Australia can also call or text you while you are in the USA.
Can I use hotspot in the USA?
Yes. Hotspot and tethering work on supported phones and selected plans. You will find hotspot details in each plan description.
You can share your USA mobile data with a laptop, tablet or travel companion, subject to your phone settings and network conditions.
Does the USA SIM work in Hawaii and Alaska?
Our T-Mobile USA plans work in Hawaii, but not in Alaska.
