Affiliate Disclosure
In plain English:
When you click "View Deal" and sign up with a provider, we may earn a commission. This costs you nothing extra. Commissions never affect deal rankings — those are determined by objective criteria (price, data, network).
SimBuddy complies with the ACCC's guidance on advertising and endorsements (Australian Consumer Law, ss. 18 & 29). All affiliate relationships are disclosed at the point of click via this page and the cookie consent banner.
How we rank deals
- Best Value — lowest cost per GB on a popular plan.
- Best Unlimited — best truly-unlimited plan by speed and price.
- Editor's Choice — overall recommendation balancing all factors.
- Best 5G — fastest 5G coverage at a reasonable price.
- Cheapest — absolute lowest price in its category.
If a deal is sponsored or paid placement, it will be clearly labelled "Sponsored". As of the latest update, no deals on this site are sponsored.
Advertising & Branded Content Policy
SimBuddy is committed to providing an independent, transparent, and unbiased comparison experience. To help support the operation of our service, we may display advertising, sponsored promotions, or branded content from providers and third‑party brands.
All sponsored content is clearly labelled and kept separate from our comparison results. Advertising does not influence how we compare, rank, or present providers, nor does it affect the plans or products we choose to list.
We may feature banner ads, carousel placements, or promotional offers on various pages of the site, including the homepage, comparison pages, and blog content. These placements are offered to approved advertisers only and do not imply endorsement or partnership beyond the advertisement itself.
SimBuddy remains fully independent. Our goal is to help Australians make informed decisions with clear, unbiased information.
