MMS sent within Australia.

What do I need to join Yomojo?
- Valid email address – If you are already a
Yomojo customer, just login and you can add new mobile
services from your Dashboard.
- Australian delivery address – We can only
send your SIM card to an Australian address. You can choose
whether we send to your home address or an alternate, more
convenient address such as your workplace.
- Credit/Debit card – Our accepted payment
methods at sign-up are credit and debit cards so we can
verify your identity for telecommunications compliance
purposes. After you have activated, if you wish to pay via
cheque or money order you can send this to our office and it
will be applied to your account once funds are cleared.
Please contact our Customer Service team to arrange this.
What SIM card size do I need for my phone?
-
When you purchase a Yomojo SIM card, you will receive one of
our “triple punch” SIM cards. Our triple punch SIM cards
cater to all mobile devices so it will be a perfect fit!
What is the difference between Monthly Billing and Prepay?
- Prepay – Plans are paid for upfront and
ongoing payments are taken on the renewal day of your plan.
If you use up your plan inclusions before it expires or wish
to use call, text or data services outside of your plan
inclusion you will need to top up your Excess Credit. (See:
What are Excess Charges and Excess Credit?)
- Monthly Billing (available to some existing
customers only) – You will receive a monthly
invoice two (2) days after the end of your billing period.
The invoice will detail your Plan charge, any Excess charges
plus any additional account credits or charges within the
billing period. If you use up any of your inclusions before
expiry, your service will not be interrupted. Instead, you
will be billed Excess Rates for that specific usage and
charges incurred will be on top of your monthly plan charge.
Usage not included in your plan will also be charged at
Excess Rates (See: What are Excess Charges and Excess
Credit?)
Can I use any device with Yomojo?
- Our SIM cards are tested to work on mobile phones, tablets
(such as iPad’s) and WiFi dongles only. Your device must be
network unlocked for our SIM card to work. If your device is
network locked, contact your device provider to secure an
unlocking code. We cannot guarantee that our service will
work on Security alarms and other devices not mentioned
above.
How do I check if my device is network locked?
-
Please contact your current service provider and provide the
IMEI number of your phone so they can check if the device is
locked. You may see your phone’s IMEI number by typing this
code into your phone: *#06#
Can I bring my number over?
-
Yes! If you wish to bring your number to Yomojo, during the
sign-up process simply tick the ‘I want to bring my mobile
number to Yomojo’ option and input the number you want to
port and the name of your current provider. (See: Bring My
Number over)
Will I be locked in to a contract?
-
No! There are no lock-in contracts with Yomojo, so you are
free to change your plan as you need and you may cancel at
any time without penalty (other than breaking our hearts).
If you do cancel your service, you will lose any unused
allowance at the time of cancellation.
Can I use my Yomojo Mobile to call 1900/premium numbers?
-
Calling 1900/premium numbers are blocked. You may text 1900
numbers, but you will have to enable this via SIM Settings
on your Dashboard.
Ordering a SIM card online (signing up)
What do I need to order a SIM card online?
- Valid email address - If you are already a
Yomojo customer, just login and you can add new mobile
services from your Dashboard.
- Australian delivery address – We can only
send your SIM card to an Australian address. You can choose
whether we send to your home address or an alternate, more
convenient address such as your workplace.
- Credit/Debit card – Our accepted payment
methods at sign-up are credit and debit cards so we can
verify your identity for telecommunications compliance
purposes. After you have activated, if you wish to pay via
cheque or money order you can send this to our office and it
will be applied to your account once funds are cleared.
Please contact our Customer Service team to arrange this.
How much does it cost to get my SIM card delivered?
-
The Yomojo SIM card and delivery included for no additional
charge to your monthly plan.
How long will it take to get my SIM card?
-
We use Australia Post’s Priority Post service. Please allow
1-5 business days for your SIM card to be delivered.
Can my SIM card be delivered to a different address to my home address?
-
Yes, as long as the address is a valid Australian address
(physical or postal).
What do I do once I receive my SIM card?
-
Once your SIM has arrived, it will need to be activated to
get your service up and running. We will automatically
activate your SIM for you (we’ll tell you when) but you can
always activate sooner: simply head back onto our website
and click 'Activate SIM' or contact us on 1300 YOMOJO (1300
966 656).
Bringing My Number Over
How long does it take to port?
-
We submit your port request immediately after you activate
your SIM card but we have to wait for your provider to
release your number to us - and this is where most of the
time is lost! Please allow up to 48 hours for porting to be
completed but number porting typically completes the same
day (Mon-Sat only).
How will I know when my number has been ported?
-
You will receive an email from us when your number has been
successfully ported. Whilst your number is being ported,
simply continue to use your old SIM card - your old service
will continue to work until porting has been complete, at
which point the network will drop out and you'll know it’s
time to swap in your new Yomojo SIM card.
Can I port later on?
-
No, porting is triggered once you click on ‘Activate SIM’.
If you want to get a new number instead, you must contact
our Customer Support team for their assistance.
I received an email/SMS saying my port is rejected
-
Don't stress! This simply means that the details you
provided do not match those on record with your previous
provider. Please log into your Yomojo Dashboard to check if
your details are correct - if they are correct you may need
to contact your previous carrier to update your details so
they match. Our Support Team will be happy to help you
through this to make the process as fast as possible and
once your details are matching the port will be processed
successfully.
Activating your SIM card
How long will it take to activate my service?
-
Please allow 30 minutes for your service to be fully active
after activating your SIM card. If you're porting your
number, the porting process will begin as soon as you've
activated your SIM card. (See Bringing My Number Over)
How do I change my auto-activation date?
-
You may alter the activation date through the Yomojo website
or by contacting the Customer Service team. However, the
activation date can only be deferred up to 45 days into the
future.
Network
What Network is Yomojo on?
-
Yomojo runs on the powerful Optus 3G/4G Plus Network.
Does Yomojo have 4G?
-
Yes! We have 4G coverage available. It runs on 1800 Mhz,
2100 Mhz and 2300 Mhz frequencies.
What is the difference between 3G and 4G?
-
4G is faster than 3G, which means less buffering, better
video quality, enhanced gaming experience and improved
streaming services.
How do I know if my phone is 4G-capable?
-
We recommend looking up your device specification by
visiting your phone manufacturer’s website. Since it is
common for manufacturers to release models with different
hardware in different regions, see to it that you are
researching on an Australian website. Check if the MHz
frequency of your device is able to support 700MHz, 1800MHz,
2100MHz, 2300MHz or 2600MHz. If the answer is yes, then your
phone is 4G-capable.
How do I know if I am connected to 4G?
-
Your Signal Bar should indicate 4G.
Using your Yomojo Service
Plans Validity
Your Plan
- Your Plan will renew automatically every 30 days.
- Through your Dashboard or mobile app, you can buy data
bolt-ons or use Excess Credit to pay for usage outside of
your plan allowance or plan inclusion.
- Via our Change Plan feature, you can change your Plan
whenever you like and as many times as you like. The last
saved Plan will be applied on the next scheduled renewal
date.
- The plan allowance does not roll-over month-to-month.
What happens if I use up all of a Plan allowance before the
expiry?
- For prepaid services, you simply won’t be able to use the
feature relevant to that allowance. You will need to have –
or top-up – your Excess Credit balance if you want to
continue using your service.
- For Monthly Billing services your service will not be
interrupted but all usage will be charged on our standard
Excess Rates.
- Excess Rates
11c/min for voice calls
9c/160 characters for SMS
5c/MB for data usage
- See here for our full list of our Excess Rates:
https://yomojo.com.au/home/pricingtable#appendix1
How can Bolt-ons help?
What are Bolt-ons?
-
Bolt-ons add data to your existing Data allowance when you
need that extra boost. It's much cheaper than the Excess
Rate for your additional data.
How do I get a Bolt-on?
-
Your Plan must already include a Data allowance. If so, you
can choose to add a 1GB or 2GB data Bolt-on straight from
your Dashboard or via the mobile app. If your service is
prepaid, we will charge your credit/debit card at the time
you add a Bolt-on. If you have a Monthly Billing service,
the charge for the Bolt-on will be added to your next
monthly bill.
When does it expire?
-
Bolt-ons have the same expiry as your current Plan.
For example:
Current plan expires on 31st of December
Bolt-on added on 25th of December
Bolt-on expires on 31st of December
What happens if I don’t use my Bolt-on?
-
Since your Bolt-on expires with the rest of your plan, any
unused Bolt-on data will also expire. Unused data does not
roll over. Charges are non-refundable.
What are my bolt-on options?
-
You can choose to add 1GB for $11 or get 2GB for $20.
Is there a limit as to how many bolt-ons I can add?
-
No, there is no limit. Just remember that bolt-ons have the
same expiry as your current plan and any unused bolt-on data
will not roll over. Charges are non-refundable.
What are Excess Charges and Excess Credit?
Excess Charges and Excess Credit
-
Excess Credit is used to pay for ‘excess’ services not
included in your Plan or to pay for usage when you have used
up all your Plan allowance for a particular inclusion type.
For example, if your Plan does not include any International
call minutes, you will need to top-up your Excess Credit to
make an international call. If you use all your data
allowance before your plan renews, you need to top-up your
Excess Credit to keep using data. If you have a Monthly
Billing service, you won’t need to top-up but that usage
will be charged at our standard Excess Rates.
- Excess Rates
11c/min for voice calls
9c/160 characters for SMS
5c/MB for data usage
- See here for our full list of our Excess Rates:
https://yomojo.com.au/home/pricingtable#appendix1
Excess Credit expiry
-
Prepaid Excess Credit is valid for 90 days from the time of
top-up. Unused credit will be saved as long as you purchase
or renew your Plan at least one day before the expiry date.
Doing this extends the expiry of your existing credit for
another 90 days.
Minimum top up
-
The minimum amount to top-up Excess Credit is $10.
Excess Credit Auto Top-up
- We will automatically top up your Excess Credit if your
balance drops below $2.
- You may activate/deactivate the Auto-top up feature by
logging into your Dashboard and enabling the setting.
- You may select the Auto Top-up amount from: $10, $15, $20,
$30, $50, $100
Using your Yomojo Mobile
What is VoLTE?
VoLTE stands for Voice over LTE. This is a new technology that allows voice calls on the Optus 4G Plus Network (Currently, voice calls use 3G). VoLTE is FREE! No extra/additional charge to use this service. All voice calls will be charged the same as your regular calls.

Can I make emergency calls “000” on VoLTE?
All VoLTE-compatible handsets can make calls to Triple Zero (000) on VoLTE as normal to your chosen Emergency Service (Police, Ambulance, Fire).
There may be limitations on calling Triple Zero on VoLTE in an area with no underlying 3G coverage.
What is Wi-Fi Calling?
Wi-Fi Calling allows you to make and receive Calls, MMS and SMS over a Wi-Fi network if you have a compatible Wi-Fi Calling device, connected to a supported Wi-Fi network and you don't have sufficient mobile network coverage to make a call.
Wi-Fi Calling does not have additional cost. It is included if you have a mobile plan or will be charged the regular Voice, SMS and MMS charges if without a plan.
Can I choose Wi-Fi calling as my preferred calling option?
- Your phone will try to establish a call using 4G first. If 4G is too weak or unavailable, it will use Wi-Fi Calling.
- To make calls over a Wi-Fi connection even with your network mobile coverage available, you have to override your device's default settings. The settings vary per device.
Can I call Emergency 000 using Wi-Fi Calling?
Yes, emergency 000 calls are supported over Wi-Fi Calling if there is no mobile network coverage available to make the call if you have Wi-Fi coverage and are using a Wi-Fi Calling compatible device with the latest software.
Does Wi-Fi Calling work while the phone is in airplane mode?
Yes. Airplane mode does not prevent Wi-Fi Calling.
How will I know when I am on Wi-Fi Call?
Different devices show different icons to indicate that you are using Wi-Fi Calling:
- Apple iPhone - you will see ‘Optus Wi-Fi Call’ on your home screen.
- Samsung - you will see the Wi-Fi Calling Icon on your home screen.
- Other devices – you will either see ‘Optus Wi-Fi Call’ or Wi-Fi Calling Icon on your home screen.
Do I need to change the way I call to use Wi-Fi Calling?
No. If your device is compatible and VoLTE/Wi-Fi Calling is activated, making and receiving calls and messages over Wi-Fi Calling will be the same as when using the mobile network.
Why can’t I make or receive Wi-Fi calls?
Reasons for being unable to make or receive Wi-Fi Call are below:
- VoLTE and Wi-Fi Calling are not enabled.
- You have not installed the latest software for your device.
- The Wi-Fi Calling settings on your device are turned off.
- You are not connected to a Wi-Fi network.
Does Wi-Fi Calling consume my mobile data?
Wi-Fi Calling uses mobile data to setup the call, however this data usage is unmetered and does not count towards your mobile data usage allowance.
Is Wi-Fi Calling secure?
Yes, Wi-Fi Calling uses the same SIM based authentication that is used when making calls over the Optus mobile network.
Does Wi-Fi Calling support Voicemail and Visual Voicemail?
Wi-Fi Calling capability supports voicemail but currently does not support visual voicemail.
What happens to my call if I leave the Wi-Fi hotspot?
Wi-Fi Calling capability supports voicemail but currently does not support visual voicemail.
- If Wi-Fi calling was used to start the call, then the customer stepped out of the house, the phone will connect to VoLTE and the call will continue.
- If the caller was using VoLTE to start the call, then stepped inside the house, the phone should still use VoLTE unless the signal was too weak and the phone switches to 3G or Wi-Fi calling.
What devices are VoLTE-compatible?

Online Safety
How can I keep myself safe online?
Ensuring online safety starts with understanding the risks and taking proactive measures to prevent,
limit, or block them. It encompasses a wide range of topics, including handling illegal or restricted content,
tackling cyberbullying, and addressing other forms of online abuse. If you find yourself at risk in the online realm,
don't hesitate to reach out to us or report the incident to the
eSafety Commissioner.
What are considered illegal and restricted online content?
Illegal and restricted online content encompasses a wide range of materials, from the gravely disturbing,
such as images and videos depicting child sexual abuse or acts of terrorism,
to content unsuitable for children, like simulated sexual activity, explicit nudity, or intense violence.
Producing, sharing, or downloading these kinds of content are against the law. You may refer to the Online Safety Act or the eSafety Commissioner’s guide to
illegal and restricted content for more info.
I received/saw illegal or harmful content online. What do I do?
If you received or saw any illegal and restricted content online, you can either report the incident to us or to the
eSafety commissioner.
When filling out a report, you’ll have to provide evidence about what has happened. This could be noting down information like the web page
address (URL) or a person's user profile or supplying screenshots where appropriate.
You can visit the
eSafety complaints handling process for more information.
If possible, we'd encourage you to talk to a family member, close friend, or someone you trust to support you through this process.
How do I collect evidence for online safety threats?
If you encounter severe online abuse, refrain from immediately deleting any messages or comments.
When reporting the abuse to us, eSafety, or the police, it's crucial to have evidence that indicates
the time and location of the content being sent, posted, or shared. Gather this evidence now,
as it may vanish if the other person's account is blocked.
For more information, please visit eSafety's guidelines on
how to collect evidence of online abuse.
How do I keep my Family safe online?
As parents or carers, we must be aware of these threats and educate our children about the potential dangers of the internet and how to respond to them.
Aside from awareness, there are other practical steps we can take to keep our family safe online.
These include setting boundaries and rules for internet usage, installing parental control software,
monitoring online activities, and having open and honest conversations about internet safety with our loved ones.
We encourage you to check out the Communications Alliance's
Family Friendly Filter (FFF) program
to discover products that can help you block illegal and restricted online content.
