Bring Your Own Phone

At Lüm, it’s all about selling data – so you can bring your own phone and we won’t try to sell you something newer or more expensive.

Enter your phone's IMEI number below to make sure your phone is compatible with Lüm and isn’t listed as lost or stolen.

Bring Your Own Phone

* Find your phone's IMEI number by dialling *#06# (15 digit number). Do not include spaces!

Love your phone number? Bring that, too! You can bring Saskatchewan phone numbers (306 or 639 area code) over to Lüm from most providers. But how, you ask? After you sign up and receive your eSIM or physical SIM card - the online process to activate your SIM will also take you through the steps to move your number . It is important NOT to cancel your account with your old provider just yet - once you complete the steps to move your number it will cancel your old account. You can always choose to get a new number with Lüm as well!

Activate your SIM

Hold up! To get up and running with Lüm Mobile, you’ll need to sign up and get an eSIM or order a SIM card. If you’ve already done that (and have your SIM card in hand if you need one), keep going and activate now.
