Vodafone MVNO plan FAQs

While it's often regarded as the cheapest of the Big Three mobile networks in Australia, Vodafone brings a wide selection of plans with plenty of perks to the table.

This affordability often spreads to Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) on the Vodafone network. These smaller providers buy network access then sell it on for cheap. Vodafone MVNOs can provide cheaper plans because they have fewer overheads, such as advertising or bricks and mortar stores.

Each Vodafone MVNO receives full access to the Vodafone network, which isn't something you can say for Telstra network providers. So, if you get Vodafone coverage in your area, you might be able to find a cheaper plan without sacrificing your network connection.

In this guide, we'll look at the cheapest Vodafone MVNO plans in our database of 28 mobile providers. We'll also sort them by both introductory deal cost, and by total cost over 24-months.

Once we get to around $40 per month, you can see just how cheap it can be going with a Vodafone MVNO. Not because $40 per month is a negligible amount, but because there are so few plans left – for the most part, they're all cheaper than this.

And it can be surprising how much data you can get. Most of these plans have more than enough mobile data to satisfy all your social media scrolling and even watching Netflix while commuting to and from work.

If you want to look at the cheapest Vodafone plan from the telco itself, we've lined up its plans above. While the Vodafone is usually the cheapest of the Big Three, its plan offerings start with fairly big data allowances, meaning there's not particularly cheap option – at least, not compared to most Vodafone MVNOs.

Vodafone MVNOs: Who uses the Vodafone network?

At the time of writing, there are currently six telcos who use the Vodafone network.

Let's take a deep dive into each of these telcos so you can see how they differ from one another and Big Red itself. But first, here's a quick overview:

Provider	Plans	5G	Highlighted features
felix mobile	Prepaid	Yes, all plans	Data rollover on selected plans, truly unlimited data plan, no excess data charges, unlimited data banking on selected plans
iiNet	Prepaid	On select plans	Cheap introductory discounts, bundle with home internet to save $5 per month, eSIM options
Kogan Mobile	Prepaid	On select plans	Affordable Global Roaming packs, data rollover up to 200GB, earn Qantas Frequent Flyer points, eSIM options, long-expiry options
Lebara Mobile	Prepaid	On select plans	Data banking up to 200GB, unlimited international calls on selected plans, eSIM options, long-expiry options, auto recharge savings
TPG	Prepaid	On select plans	Generous introductory offers, international calls to select countries, bundle with home internet to save $5 per month

felix mobile

felix mobile offers three prepaid plans, starting from just $25 per month.

All felix mobile customers enjoy unlimited data banking and no excess data charges. For its standard plans, speeds are simply capped at 1.5Mbps when you reach your limit.

felix is also the only telco in our database with a truly unlimited mobile plan. There's no speed slowing once you reach a certain limit – except all speeds are capped at 20Mbps. But 20Mbps is still enough to do just about anything you might want to on a phone such as watch HD videos, post to social media, have video chats, and more.

iiNet

iiNet often has some of the cheapest introductory offers in our database, though is usually edged out by its parent company, TPG.

Despite being owned by TPG, which is also owns Vodafone, iiNet's plans are usually still more affordable than Vodafone's, starting at $25 per month excluding promo discounts. Its cheapest plan doesn't have 5G, but the others do.

If you're also an iiNet home internet customer, you can save $5 per month by bundling your mobile and internet bills. It's admittedly not a lot, but it can be enough to edge iiNet ahead of other cheap internet plans from Vodafone MVNOs.

Kogan Mobile

Kogan Mobile offers a surprisingly wide range of mobile plans for an MVNO. Customers can choose from varying price points across monthly and long-expiry plans to suit any budget and even have the option to choose an eSIM, if their phone supports it.

Kogan Mobile also has international roaming and international call pack add-ons to keep in touch with those travelling overseas and a data pack add-on when data is a little light for the month. Customers can also rollover up to 200GB of data, regardless of which plan they're on.

Lebara Mobile

Lebara is a handy prepaid option if you have loved ones overseas that you regularly keep in touch with. All of its plans come standard with at least 300 international minutes to select overseas countries – some even have unlimited minutes. The pricier your plan, the better your international inclusions will be.

You can also reap the savings yourself by opting into its Auto Recharge feature to save 10% on Small 30 day and above prepaid plans. Plus if you don't think you'll use all your data, you can bank up to 200GB.

TPG

TPG is one of the most affordable telcos in the Australian mobile market, especially when you consider its generous introductory discounts. It offers a 50% discount for the first six months on all its mobile plans. Existing TPG internet customers who switch to TPG mobile will continue to save $5 per month on most plans after the initial six months are up.

Vodafone network coverage compared

Vodafone coverage is the smallest of the three national mobile networks, but its overall footprint is just behind Optus. The Vodafone network covers 98.4% of the Australian population, compared to the 98.5% of Optus and 99.6% of Telstra.

But if you're with a Telstra MVNO, you get a bit less. Telstra MVNOs can only access the Telstra 'Wholesale' network, which has still an overall 4G coverage of 98.8%, but only 75% for 5G. The only exception is Boost Mobile, a Telstra MVNO with access to the full Telstra network.

Australian Mobile Network Coverage

Network	4G coverage	5G coverage
Telstra network*	99.8%	91%
Telstra Wholesale network	98.8%	75%
Optus network	98.5%	80.5%
Vodafone network	98.4%	Not stated

_{Numbers shown are a percentage of the Australian population.}
_{*Boost Mobile is the only Telstra MVNO with access to the full Telstra network.}

Comparing Vodafone's 5G coverage is harder. While Optus and Telstra publish their 5G population coverage (80.5% for Optus, 89% for Telstra, and 75% for Telstra Wholesale), Vodafone doesn't. But it's the smallest of the three full networks, nonetheless.

If want to compare Vodafone, Telstra and Optus coverage in your area, check out the WhistleOut interactive coverage checker tool below. This will help you make a more informed decision about which mobile network you should choose.

How mobile network coverage maps work

Keep in mind mobile network coverage works off population – it doesn't consider geographic coverage. While population coverage is essential, this does mean there are parts of Australia that even the Telstra network can't reach. So even though coverage maps generally colour in whole suburbs, you shouldn't expect coverage to completely blanket the entire area shown. There will be dark spots.

Coverage maps are only approximate, only show outdoor coverage, and may be impacted by local conditions such as buildings.

Vodafone also offers a 30-day network guarantee so, if you find it isn't for you, you can simply opt out with nothing to pay. As for Vodafone MVNOs, you're likely to get the same coverage for a cheaper rate.

Vodafone MVNO plan FAQs

What is the cheapest Vodafone mobile plan?

At the time of writing, the cheapest mobile plan currently on offer from Vodafone is its $35 Prepaid Plus Recharge. This will get you 25GB of data to use over a 28-day period. If you opt in to auto-recharging, you'll save $5 off your bill per month. Check out this plan below and other affordable options from Vodafone:

Is there a difference between Vodafone and Vodafone MVNO coverage?

Yes and no. Any Vodafone MVNO can have full access to the Vodafone network, but not all of them buy access to 5G. Some don't offer it at all, and those that do usually don't include it on their cheapest plans.

And even when 5G is included in a Vodafone MVNO plan, there's sometimes a speed limit applied, such as 150Mbps or 250Mbps, but it depends on the plan. That said, 150Mbps is more than enough to handle almost any phone-related activities. As is the (usually) 100Mbps cap on 4G speeds – which is the same download limit as an NBN 100 plan.

Does TPG use the Vodafone network?

Yes. TPG, iiNet and Vodafone all belong to a parent company called TPG Group, though TPG (the telco) and TPG Group are often referred to interchangeably. That said, TPG doesn't use Vodafone 5G on all its plans, only most of them. The same goes for iiNet.

What network does Vodafone use in Australia?

There's a common misconception that Vodafone uses the Telstra network or Optus network, but this isn't true. Vodafone owns and operates Australia's third-largest mobile network – called the Vodafone network. This network will soon begin piggybacking on the Optus network in some regional, rural and remote regions of Australia, but this will only affect a very small percentage of Australians.
