This wikiHow teaches you how to order a SIM card for use with a Jio mobile plan. You can order a SIM using the MyJio app or by logging onto Jio's website.

Method 1
Method 1 of 2:

Using the MyJio Mobile App

  1. If you're using an Android, download the app from the Play Store . If you have an iPod or iPad, download it from the App Store .
    • If you ordered a phone directly from Jio's website (and SIM home delivery is available in your location), you'll receive an email containing a link you can use to purchase a SIM. This email message may not arrive until your new Jio phone is delivered. [1]
  2. It's the red circle that says "Jio" inside. You'll find it on the home screen or in the app drawer.

  3. You'll be prompted to give permission for the app to send you notifications and access your location. All of these settings are optional.
  4. It's the second icon in the bar at the bottom of the screen.
  5. You can choose from Postpaid SIM , Prepaid SIM , or Pre to Post , depending on your needs.
  6. Use a phone number on which you can receive text messages. Jio will text you a one-time password (OTP) that you'll need to enter to continue.
  7. It may take a few moments for the code to arrive. If five minutes have passed and you still haven't received the code via text message, tap Re-Send OTP below the blank to try again.
  8. The app will determine your eligibility and then display steps to proceed.
    • Depending on your account and location, home delivery of your SIM may be available. If not, you'll be shown a coupon that you'll bring to a Jio store.
  9. You'll have to agree to Jio's terms and provide some information about your location. Depending on your setup and location, home delivery of your SIM may be available. If not, you'll be shown a coupon that you'll bring to a Jio store. [2]
  10. If you were able to set up home delivery, there's no need to complete the step. If not, use the store locator at https://www.jio.com/Jio/portal/storeLocator to find the nearest retail location, and show the coupon code to an employee (along with a local Aadhaar card with a passport-sized photo) to complete the order and provide you with a SIM.
