If you live in Singapore, chances are you’ve travelled to Indonesia at least once — maybe a quick weekend trip to Batam or Bintan, a family holiday in Bali, or even a business meeting in Jakarta. While the ferry or flight is usually affordable, the same can’t always be said for mobile connectivity. Many travellers end up paying hefty roaming charges or scrambling to buy a local prepaid SIM card upon arrival.
That is where redONE Mobile can make a difference. With our best affordable SIM-only plans, staying connected even in Indonesia can feel easy, cheap and stress-free.
Why Staying Connected in Indonesia Matters
In this day and age, whether going overseas for leisure or for work, mobile connectivity has become essential in our daily lives:
- Navigation & Safety: Use Google Maps, Grab, or Gojek without worrying about coverage.
- Communication: Stay connected with friends, family or colleagues via WhatsApp or Telegram.
- Convenience: Book rides, order food delivery, and make payments with local apps.
- Peace of Mind: No unexpected roaming charges when you return to Singapore.
The Problem with Traditional Roaming and Tourist SIM Cards in Indonesia
When travelling from Singapore to Indonesia, most people use one of two options – both of which come with drawbacks:
- Roaming with Traditional Telcos
- It can cost you upwards of $10 to $20 per day.
- Suitable for emergencies but not sustainable for frequent travellers.
- Easy to forget to turn off roaming after travel → resulting in unexpected bills.
- Buying a Local Prepaid SIM Card
- Requires passport registration.
- Difficulty in finding a counter in smaller cities like Surabaya or Medan.
- Unease with the SIM card’s connectivity.
- Tourist SIM cards often come with limited data and short validity periods.
Both options are inconvenient and expensive if you travel frequently.
