payments & plans

Your subscription is billed monthly, so your renewal date will fall on the same day every month. It will go through automatically at around 11:59pm Sydney time on your renewal date, unless you decide to switch your number to another provider, pause or cancel beforehand. This renewal date is determined by when you activated your physical SIM, or on the date you chose to bring across your number across with eSIM.

Any credit in your felix wallet will automatically be put towards your renewal amount.

Note: if your payment cycle starts on the last few days of the month (for example 29th, 30th, 31st), then at some stage your renewal payment date will change.

Open the link on the mobile device where you're logged into the felix mobile app to get the replacement underway. The link will expire in four hours, so we recommend jumping on it ASAP. Replacement physical SIMs will automatically go to the address on file. If you’re having trouble receiving or using the link in the email, please chat in with the team.

It works the same as a physical SIM card but instead of having to wait for your SIM in the mail, you can download it straight on your phone in minutes from the felix mobile app. You can check if your phone is eSIM compatible here.

Yes, you can pause your subscription in a few taps via the felix mobile app. Head to the app Settings > Phone and service settings > Pause my subscription > Pause my subscription.

When paused, you can continue using any international add-ons, so we recommend pausing your main felix subscription if you’re planning on going travelling for more than a month to save some dollars! You have up to 60 days to purchase International Roaming once paused.

To resume your subscription within 242 days, head to the felix mobile app and tap Resume my subscription from the Home tab.

If you use a promo code with a multi-month discount (e.g. a discount on your first three months) and pause before the promo ends, you must pay the full subscription amount to resume your subscription, and then you retain the discount for the remaining months the promo covers.

If you decide to resume your service after pausing for 60 days and are currently on the unlimited mobile data plan and paying $35/mth, you'll be required to pay the new price of $40/mth.

*For the first 60 days of being paused, you will only be able to receive incoming calls and SMS, make emergency calls (such as 000) and access the felix website to chat with our Care team. After the 60 days, your service will be restricted to emergency calls only, and access to the felix website for 182 days. After the 182 days, your service will be terminated and unable to be reactivated.
