Prepaid SIM cards do not require a subscription and only work with a top-up system when
the phone or data credit is exceeded. These offers are ideal for travellers to be able to
call or go online in certain countries without having to take out a subscription. There are
several operators offering prepaid SIM cards, the prices of which can vary according to
usage.
Here is what you need to know about prepaid SIM cards:
Prepaid SIM cards allow you to pay only for what you use in order to control your budget.
Some SIM cards allow you to have unlimited credit for a limited period of time.
Prepaid SIM top-ups have a limited validity period.
Prepaid SIM cards allow you to have a new phone number.
Orange, SFR, Bouygues Télécom, Lebara and Lyca offer prepaid SIM cards.
Many operators on the market sell prepaid SIM cards. This is the case for the three main
operators, Orange, Bouygues Telecom and SFR. However, they are not the only ones to
offer this type of service. Some MVNOs, such as Lebara, Lyca and La Poste mobile, also sell
them.
Where to get a prepaid card ?
● Tobacco shops
● Orange SFR, Bouygues shops
● Supermarkets (Auchan and Carrefour)
