★★★★★ Jane

The parental controls are great - turning the data on and off easily, the kids being able to see their data usage - making them use it responsibly and us being able to track the usage.

★★★★★ Jasmin

Spriggy Mobile has been so positive for me ... and my son. We have had Spriggy Mobile for about five months and I love that I don’t need to worry anymore. I can get hold of him when I need to and have control over what he is doing on his phone.

★★★★★ Jennifer

Freedom at last because my daughter has the independence that comes with her phone and I get peace of mind knowing that we can get in touch with her when we need to.

★★★★★ Jen & Col Danaher

Spriggy has been a very useful tool in keeping me in touch with my granddaughter. It has helped her out when she has needed it, for instance when she has found herself stranded and needs help in getting home.

Most kids are online before they’re old enough for the apps they use. We built Spriggy Mobile so your kid can have a phone with protection built in from the start, and you stay in control with the Spriggy app.

Frequently asked questions

Why Spriggy Mobile?

Most mobile plans in Australia are built with adults in mind. That’s where we come in.

Spriggy Mobile was designed especially for kids, packed with features they need (no unnecessary extras), and parental controls that keep them safe while they’re connected.

Can I transfer my kid’s existing number?

Yes. When signing up for Spriggy Mobile, you can choose to keep your child’s current mobile number.

When you begin activating your Spriggy Mobile SIM, we’ll send a verification code to that number. Just provide the code to complete the transfer.

What mobile coverage will I get?

Depending on the SIM plan you chose, you will have either 4G or 5G coverage.

How do I sign up?

Choose a SIM plan on our website and complete the online sign-up. Then, download the Spriggy app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and follow the steps. Your child’s SIM will arrive in 7-10 days, and once activated, they’ll be ready to go.

Can my kid sign up for Spriggy Mobile?

While our mobile plans are designed especially with Aussie kids in mind, the plan will be issued to you as the parent or guardian and you must be at least 18 years old. The plan and service management will be in your name, and you can choose to provide the SIM for use by your child.

Do I need to bring my own phone?

Yes, Spriggy Mobile plans are SIM-only, so you’ll need to bring your own device. The SIM card will include punch-out sizes to fit most phone models.

Do I need to be an existing Spriggy member?

No, you don’t have to be an existing Spriggy member to join Spriggy Mobile. You can sign up for just Spriggy Mobile, use both services, or stick with just pocket money. Whichever suits you best.
