The Hop SIM has been discontinued but we offer many other SIM cards that have much lower rates and work in many of the same countries and more. If you do not see the country that you are traveling to listed on one of our other Global SIM Cards please call us for additional suggestions.
Currently, our most popular SIM is the SmartFree Quattro SIM. The SmartFree SIM offers free incoming calls all over Europe and many other countries. For more information on the SmartFree SIM please Click Here. Our Travel International SIM offers coverage in some countries that the SmartFree Quattro SIM does not.

Activating Your Hop
Worldwide Sim
Your Hop WorldWide SIM will have a pre-assigned mobile number and
will be ready to use straight out of the package, no activation is
necessary. Simply insert the sim in your phone, enter 0000 as the pin
number, press send, and your sim is ready to use.
Your phone number will start with country code 377.
Callers from the USA would dial: 011 377 and the rest of your number
to reach you in over 80 countries around the world. Because they callers will be dialing a European based number wherever you are in the world it will be less expensive then if they were to dial a number based in the country you are visiting.
Placing A Call Using
The Hop WorldWide SIM:
Placing calls is slightly different using the USSD System. For
all outgoing calls, you will dial *111* and the country code, number,
press #, and then send.
(You will need to put a # at the end every time you execute a
command.)
Instead of putting the phone to your ear immediately, you would
wait about two seconds and the phone will ring, alerting you to answer the phone and speak to whomever you are calling. Answer the phone
and you will hear your call going through.
Just dial-
* 1 1 1 * then country code, city code, the phone number (country
code is 1 for US), press # and finally the send key to dial any
number.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In These few seconds the Hop WorldWide SIM calls you back, answer the call and you will be connected.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Checking Your
Balance
You will hear your balance whenever you make a phone call, but
there may be occasions where you would like to find out your balance
without having to make a call. It is important for you to frequently
check your balance, so that you will know as far in advance is
possible when you need to add more time.
For a free SIM Balance Check:
Dial * 1 4 7 and then press # and then the
Send
or
Yes
key. {There must be a # at the end of every line entered}
