Since we do not currently deliver in Singapore, it is advised that you buy multiple SIM cards in advance, as per your data and validity needs, and activate them as and when required.

The SimCorner Singapore SIM card plan provides nationwide coverage on Singtel and M1 networks. These are among Singapore’s top carriers and thus ensure strong 4G/5G speeds throughout the city-state. You will get reliable performance in most areas tourists visit—malls and transport hubs alike. However, in the outskirts or more remote areas, the signal may face some inconsistencies, despite partnerships with the top local carriers.

Yes. Singtel and M1—the networks behind SimCorner’s Singapore SIM card—provide coverage in major public transport systems, including MRT stations, Changi Airport, and urban transit.

However, some weaker signals in remote natural parks or offshore locales shall be expected.

To use 4G/LTE and 5G properly, your phone or device should support common Singapore bands (e.g., LTE Band 3, 7, 20, 28; 5G n78, etc.). Most of the recent unlocked phones (iPhones & Androids) will be compatible. If your device lacks support for relevant bands, you might experience slower speeds. It is always better to check your device specifications before relying on high-speed guarantees.

Yes. SimCorner’s plan supports multi-device compatibility: tablets, iPads, and MiFi devices are supported alongside iPhone and Android smartphones. These devices should also be unlocked and have appropriate SIM slots. Hotspot/ tethering is also allowed, making our SIM card for Singapore flexible across multiple gadgets.

If your phone is locked to another mobile provider, any Singapore SIM card you buy will not function. To visit Singapore on a locked device would mean mandatorily using exorbitant roaming with your home provider. However, unlocking is easy. You simply have to contact your home carrier to get it unlocked. Once unlocked, you can insert our Singapore travel SIM card and enjoy full service at far more affordable rates than roaming.
