If you travel frequently, a Rogers prepaid SIM will be your perfect travel companion, keeping you connected and online where you go.

How to Activate Your Rogers SIM Card?

Have you recently purchased a Rogers SIM card, and you aren’t sure what to do in order to start using it? You’ll be surprised to find out just how simple it is to activate your Rogers SIM card!

All you really need to do is insert your SIM card into your phone and wait for the signals to come on. If that doesn’t happen within a minute or two of inserting the SIM card, you might need to restart your device. Once your device powers up again, your SIM card will be ready for use!

In rare circumstances, telecommunications service providers in Canada set up carries locks on SIM cards. There isn’t any way to tell if a SIM card is locked or not.

Step 3 – You will be redirected to a new window with a form to fill. Type in your phone’s IMEI number in the box that asks for ‘Serial Number.’ You can locate this number on your the battery or in the phone’s user manual.
Step 4 – Next, enter the 20 digit SIM number in the box that is labelled ‘SIM Number.’ This can be found on the back of your SIM card.
Step 5 – In the following boxes, enter the Canadian province and city you reside in and then click ‘Continue.’
Step 6 – Enter your name, address, and other details required on the Customer Information form and click ‘Continue’ again.
Step 7 – Select the different services you require in your mobile plan, like text messaging, data access etc. and then click on ‘Continue.’ Review all of your choices and information once again and if you’re satisfied with the entries, press ‘Submit Activation.’
