How to choose the right Onyx mobile plan

Choose the coverage, data, number, and voice/SMS options that match how you use Onyx.

Build Your Plan turns mobile service into a clear set of choices: where service needs to work, how much data you need, and whether your plan should carry a number for calls and SMS. Choose coverage first, then data, then number service. Review the quote before checkout so the plan matches how you actually stay connected.

Key Takeaways

  • Coverage sets the countries and plan options you see next.

  • Every plan needs one monthly data tier.

  • An Onyx number is optional, but it matters when calls, SMS, recovery, or verification are part of your service.

  • Voice and SMS bundles attach to the number, not to data-only service.

  • The app quote is the final plan review before payment.

Before You Start

Create or access your Onyx account first.

Know where service needs to work. A plan choice starts with coverage, not data.

Know whether you need a number for calls, SMS, recovery, verification flows, or a stable contact point.

Confirm device compatibility before checkout if you have not used eSIM on this phone before.

Choose Coverage

Coverage controls the plan options you see next.

Onyx currently uses these public coverage bands:

  • United States

  • North America

  • Europe

  • APAC

  • MENA

  • Global

Choose a regional band when your service need stays inside that region. North America means United States and Canada.

Choose Global when you move across supported regions or when your destination does not fit a regional band. If one country matters most, check coverage before payment.

Choose Data

Choose one monthly data plan for the selected coverage.

Use 5GB for light use: messaging, maps, email, and basic browsing.

Use 15GB for regular phone use, work days, navigation, app updates, and video calls in moderation.

Use 30GB or Max when Global offers those tiers and you expect heavier travel days, hotspot use, or more media.

Use Unlimited when the selected regional or bundled plan offers it and your normal use needs a larger data lane.

Coverage quality and speed can still change by location, building, device, and local network conditions.

Choose Number Option

Choose data-only if mobile data covers the job.

Add an Onyx number if you need calls, SMS, account recovery, verification flows, or a stable contact point.

Number service depends on the selected region, telecom rules, voice support, SMS support, and number inventory. The app shows the number path before checkout.

Choose Voice And SMS

If you add an Onyx number, choose the bundle attached to that number.

Core fits light calling and SMS use.

Plus fits regular communication.

Unlimited fits heavier eligible talk and text use when the selected plan supports it.

The bundle belongs to the number. Number service stays attached to the plan.

Review Before Checkout

Before payment, review:

  • coverage

  • data allowance

  • number choice

  • voice/SMS bundle

  • due-today total

  • monthly recurring total

Change the plan before checkout if the quote does not match your intended use.

What You’ll See

Build Your Plan moves through a controlled sequence:

  1. Choose coverage.

  2. Choose data.

  3. Choose number option.

  4. Choose number bundle, if you add a number.

  5. Review plan.

  6. Start checkout.

The quote updates as you change the plan. Treat the quote in the app as the plan truth before payment.

Decision Check

Before checkout, make sure the plan supports the way you expect to stay connected.

| Plan choice | Check | Continuity rule | |---|---|---| | Coverage | Does the selected band include where service needs to work? | Choose the region that matches your real movement, not the cheapest label. | | Data | Does the allowance match your normal month? | Pick enough data for the work, travel, calls, and hotspot use you actually expect. | | Number | Do you need calls, SMS, recovery, verification, or a stable contact point? | Add an Onyx number when communication path matters. | | Voice/SMS | Did you choose the bundle attached to the number? | Keep number service and communication allowance together. | | Quote | Do due-today and monthly recurring totals match the plan you chose? | Treat the app quote as the final review before payment. |

When To Use Plan Help

Use plan help if the app blocks a valid plan path, a required choice does not load, or the quote does not reflect the choices shown in Build Your Plan.

Keep the useful context ready: selected coverage, data tier, number option, bundle option, and the screen where the issue appeared.

Do not send one-time codes, full card details, private keys, seed phrases, recovery phrases, signing approvals, or wallet backup material.
