Postpaid Price Increase FAQ’s

1. Why is there a price increase?

To keep you – and millions of South Africans – connected to the people and moments that matter most is at the heart of who we are. And to help achieve this, we continuously invest in our network to give you a fast, smooth, and reliable experience.

Vodacom SA plans to invest around R12.0 billion of capital expenditure in the current financial year to further enhance customer experience.  This highlights Vodacom’s ongoing commitment to network upgrades, expanding 5G coverage, and delivering advanced digital services to maintain world-class standards on South Africa’s Champion Network.

To support these improvements, there will be an annual price update from 1 February 2026. We’ve kept this as low as possible, with subscription changes ranging between 5%* to 9%.*

 

2. When will the annual price increase come into effect?

From 1 February 2026.

3. Will the annual price increase be applied to all plans?

The following postpaid contract plans: RED Integrated, RED Flexi, RED VIP, Home Internet (FWA), Mobile Broadband (SIM-Only data), and Legacy plans will be impacted by the price increase.

4. How do I know what price plan I am on?

Open the VodaPay app and then follow this pathway: View all > My account > Account details > Manage my number

6. Will this change my device financing?

No. We’ve absorbed additional costs to keep device fees, SMS and MMS rates and out-of-bundle data rates unchanged.

7. Are you allowed to change the price?

Vodacom reserves the right to update their terms and conditions as long as customers are made aware of any changes at least 20 working days beforehand. This also doesn’t breach Consumer Protection Act  as the increase is in line with inflation.

8. What if I only just signed my contract?

You’ve joined us during our annual price increase period, however we do understand your cost pressures. That’s why all new and upgrading customers will be given a 2 (two) months grace period.  Please see grace period timelines below.
