Hi. When you go to a shop in Germany, Ortel Mobile sells SIM card starter packs for 9.95€. The regular tariff is the most common. It has written on front of the package "Die Welt spricht Ortel" and includes a credit of 7.50€. When you put in "Ortel mobile" on the German Ebay (that's www.ebay.DE), you see how it looks like.

Furthermore, Ortel sells some starter packs in shops that have the option that they call "Smart 180" prebooked (http://www.ortelmobile.de/en/options/detail/40-smart-180.html). These don't have the starter credit, but the option enabled by default. But this is written on the pack.

If you are not in Germany, this option doesn't make any sense as it's for domestic use only. This way you will loose the starter credit and can't book another package for a month. You need to deactivate the option "Smart180" first, wait for 30 days to activate another option.

So it's recommended to get a regular starter pack. To find out, you can make a credit check for free by typing *100# or check it on your Ortel online account. More on this SIM card here: Euro4
