Every trip abroad is always plagued by two things: staying connected and getting around. U Mobile is looking to simplify this with its new offering that brings together the telco’s ULTRA 5G connectivity and the mobility afforded by Grab’s extensive ride-hailing. Best part, this team-up comes during Visit Malaysia 2026!
U Mobile’s ULTRA Tourist Prepaid Plan
The heart of this new offering is the ULTRA Tourist Plan, a 7-day prepaid package designed to be as straightforward as possible. For just RM15, tourists gain access to 100GB of high-speed data. The 100GB is definitely a boon to visitors who rely heavily on maps, social media, and translation services while exploring. Carrying multiple devices? The plan has you covered with hotspot connectivity, allowing you to connect multiple devices with a single subscription.
The offering is backed by U Mobile’s own 5G network, which provides extensive coverage across Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak. In addition, the network comes with extensive features that allow you to be connected the way you need to be.
Grab’s Visit Malaysia 2026 Travel Pass
What truly elevates this package is the integration of the Grab Visit Malaysia 2026 Travel Pass. By collaborating with Grab Malaysia, U Mobile is essentially giving tourists a digital key to the country’s ride-hailing ecosystem and some of the best food on GrabFood. The pass includes a collection of 22 vouchers that cover a wide range of essential services.
The ride vouchers provide discounts on airport transfers, advance bookings, and even specialised services like GrabRent or GrabExec, which can take the stress out of navigating local traffic. Beyond mobility, the inclusion of dining vouchers for GrabFood and Grab Dine Out restaurants helps visitors explore local food culture more affordably. Shopping is also covered with discounts on GrabMart orders, providing a convenient way to pick up essentials or local goods without hunting down physical stores.
Digital Accessibility via Physical SIM or eSIM
U Mobile has ensured the ULTRA Tourist Plan is widely accessible. The plan is available as a traditional physical SIM card, which can be picked up at 32 U Mobile stores, various authorised dealers, or at 7-Eleven outlets located within Malaysia’s international airports.
For the tech-savvy traveller who wants to be connected the moment their plane touches down, the eSIM version is arguably the more seamless option. This can be purchased directly through the U Mobile website or the MyUMobile app before the journey even begins. This flexibility means that travellers can activate their local service as soon as they land, bypassing long queues at airport kiosks. Once in the country, the MyUMobile app provides a simple dashboard to track usage, top up, or purchase additional data passes, ensuring that their connectivity remains as mobile as their itinerary.
