Personal Alarm Costs in Australia: Device, SIM and App Plans

Understand the full first-year cost

A transparent guide to the current device price, the SIM and mobile service you arrange, and optional Saf O’ Me app costs after the included six months.

Quick answer: a Saf O’ Me personal alarm has three separate cost parts: the device, your own mobile service, and the app plan. Every device includes six months of Safe Pro with no card required. After month six it moves to free Safe Start unless you choose Safe Plus or Safe Pro. If you are still comparing options, take our free 60-second personal alarm check.

2. SIM and mobile-plan cost

SIM not included. Each device needs its own compatible active 4G nano SIM with VoLTE, SMS and data, plus mobile coverage where it will be used. You buy the SIM and pay the mobile provider directly.

  • The wearable has its own SIM; the wearer does not need to carry a smartphone.
  • A family member or carer uses the Saf O’ Me app on a compatible smartphone.
  • Mobile pricing varies by provider and allowance, so it is not included in the Saf O’ Me totals below.
  • Turn off the SIM PIN. Keep voicemail off on SOS contacts’ phones because voicemail can stop the sequential call chain.
  • For overseas use, use a suitable local SIM for the destination, subject to device and network compatibility, VoLTE, SMS/data and coverage.

3. App-plan cost after the included six months

App plans are monthly, per device, with no lock-in contract. Safe Start is free. Safe Plus is $9 a month and Safe Pro is $19 a month.

What can the first year cost?

The table below separates known Saf O’ Me charges from your mobile service. It assumes the included Safe Pro period runs for months 1–6 and the selected ongoing app plan applies for months 7–12.

S11 BandAUD299 + 12 months of your mobile serviceAUD353 + 12 months of your mobile serviceAUD413 + 12 months of your mobile service

These totals include the current device price and the optional app charges shown above. They do not include your SIM or mobile provider’s charges. They are not a bundle, discount or fixed future-price promise.

What “no monitoring fees” means

Saf O’ Me does not charge a monitoring-centre fee and is not a monitored emergency service. Calls and alerts go to the contacts and family members chosen for the device, according to the plan. “No monitoring fees” does not remove the cost of your mobile service or an optional paid app plan after the included six months.
