Avoid Roaming Charges in the USA

We started selling USA SIM cards more than 10 years ago, first through eBay, after learning the hard way how expensive international roaming could be for Australians travelling to America.
On a trip to the USA in 2010, we had an iPhone 4 and were too nervous to turn it on. Back then, using mobile data overseas with Telstra, Optus or Vodafone could lead to huge roaming charges. You probably remember the news stories about travellers coming home to phone bills worth thousands of dollars.
We went into AT&T and T-Mobile stores in the USA hoping to buy a prepaid SIM card, but it was not simple. We were told our Australian phone might not work. We were told we might need a US social security number. We were told we might need a contract. One staff member even told us the US cell towers could fry an Australian phone.
Before our next USA trip, we did the research ourselves. We found the right contacts, worked out how to buy USA SIM cards wholesale, and started setting them up for our own travel companions before they left Australia.
They landed in the USA with mobile data, calls and texts ready to go. No roaming shock. No confusing store visit after a long flight. No guessing which plan to buy.
That is why we created usaprepaidsimcard.com.au.
Our goal is simple: help Australians stay connected in the USA with reliable USA eSIM and SIM card options before they leave home.
The website has changed a lot since the early days. At first, the largest data plan we could offer was 1GB of 3G data. Today, our USA travel SIM and eSIM plans include fast 5G/4G data, real T-Mobile or AT&T service, and a real USA mobile number.
We now offer eSIM on our plans, along with physical SIM cards for travellers who prefer a traditional SIM or have a phone that does not support eSIM.
Whether you are travelling to the USA for a holiday, business trip, family visit, cruise, conference or road trip, we want your phone to work when you arrive.
Use maps. Book Uber. Call hotels. Receive texts. Stay in touch. Travel like a local, without relying on expensive international roaming.
