Does GOMO have free roaming in Malaysia?

Yes, many GOMO plans include data roaming in Malaysia and other selected regions. Depending on your plan, the roaming allowance in Malaysia will vary. If your plan does not include roaming, you can purchase add-on plans for coverage.

GOMO is powered by Singtel, one of the largest telecoms in Singapore, and GOMO’s roaming partners in Malaysia are Celcom Axiata Berhad, DiGi, and Maxis. When you land in Malaysia, your phone should automatically connect to one of these networks. If it doesn’t, you can manually select the network through your device settings.

How much does GOMO charge for roaming in Malaysia?

While certain GOMO plans come with roaming data in Malaysia, the allowance varies. You can choose between roaming-inclusive plans or purchase add-ons based on your travel needs.

How to use GOMO roaming in Malaysia

To use GOMO roaming, make sure roaming is included in your base plan or that you’ve purchased a roaming add-on. Once activated, your phone should automatically connect to GOMO’s partner network in Malaysia when you arrive.

If your phone doesn’t connect automatically, you can manually select the preferred network through your device settings. This ensures a stable connection while using roaming services in Malaysia.

  • iOS: Settings > Mobile Data > Network Selection > Turn Off Automatic > Select Preferred Network
  • Android: Settings > Connections > Mobile Networks > Network Operators > Select Manually > Select Preferred Network

If your plan doesn’t include roaming in Malaysia, you can purchase add-ons through the GOMO app. Simply log in, go to Roaming, and select the add-on you need. Add-ons can be purchased up to one day before your trip, so your roaming is ready upon arrival.
