Skratch eSIM Data Plans for Australia

Skratch does not provide a truly unlimited high‑speed eSIM plan for Australia. The plans advertised as “Australia Unlimited” give a daily allowance of 2GB of high‑speed data; once that limit is reached, the speed drops to 1000kbps. Because the data is capped, these plans are not unlimited in the usual sense.

If an extra‑large data allowance is preferred, Skratch offers fixed‑data plans such as the 50GB 30‑day or 20GB 30‑day options, which provide 5G connectivity for the full validity period without a daily cap. These plans can be more cost‑effective for travelers who require a large, consistent amount of high‑speed data.

Skratch does not provide an eSIM for Australia that includes a local phone number or SMS capability. The provider only offers data‑only eSIM plans for travelers to the country.

Without a local number, voices and text messages must be sent through Internet‑based services. Apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage work over the data connection and can be used to call and text without a traditional phone number or SMS function.

Skratch offers 12 single‑country plans for Australia and 11 multi‑country packages that include Australia. Prices range from roughly $3.99 to $209.70, data caps fall between 1 GB and 50 GB, and validity periods vary from 3 to 30 days. Plans come in two styles: fixed‑data‑cap packages provide a set amount of data for the entire validity period, while daily‑data‑cap options limit usage to a specific amount each day.
