Activation
Your SIM serial number is the 13-digit number located on the back of your SIM kit. Your SIM number can be found in two places, on the SIM card itself and at the top of the SIM card surrounding.
During the activation process you will have a choice of 5 randomly generated numbers. Alternatively you can transfer your existing mobile number to JumpySIM.
Yes, you can transfer your existing mobile number as part of the activation process. You do not need to contact your current service provider although it is recommended that you check to ensure there are no fees or charges to leave prior to transferring your mobile number.
For your number to transfer successfully you will need to be the current owner of the account and be able to provide the account number (for post-paid services only). During the activation process, we will send you a unique code via SMS that you will need to provide back to us to confirm that you are the owner.
Generally your number port will be completed on the same day, often within a few hours (during porting hours). In some situations however it can take up to 2 business days.
If your number has not ported during this timeframe, I would recommend contacting our team at support-au@jumpysim.com.
Generally your plan will be activated within 15 minutes to 4 hours. We will message you letting you know when the service has been activated. Once activation is complete you may need to power-cycle your device.

Connectivity
JumpySIM uses parts of the Telstra Mobile Network that covers more than 98.8% of the population with 3G* and 97.9% of the population with 4G To see JumpySIM coverage in your area please click on the coverage map here.
Please note, even if you are living in an area that has coverage, connectivity via a mobile network can be impacted by a variety of factors.
These include the distance from a tower, the type of surrounding terrain (hills and valleys can block or reduce coverage), tall trees or tall buildings. Indoor connectivity can also be impacted by the type of materials the building is made of, including thick stone walls or significant amounts of metal.
Mobile products (phones, watches, tablets) may have different coverage levels depending on their technical specifications. Different mobile providers may have different coverage levels in some regional and metropolitan areas. We encourage you to check availability in your area prior to purchase.
Finally, we cannot guarantee connectivity 100% of the time as there are also other factors beyond our control. For example, if there is a local base station issue or broader mobile network outage, your Spacetalk Watch and other mobile devices in the area will not be able to connect to the network while the site is off air.
JumpySIM Australia does not offer refunds on credit purchased due to a lack of coverage.
* Telstra’s 3G Network (850Mhz band) will close in mid-2024.
You can check our coverage map available at www.au.jumpysim.com.
