Vodacom subscription price update 2023

As South Africa's leading network, we're committed to keeping you connected.

As part of this, one of our top priorities is to provide value through the products and services we offer. Despite the range of challenges we are facing including increased battery theft, base station vandalism and a difficult economic climate with inflation, exchange rate pressures and intensified loadshedding, we remain committed to keeping our prices as low as possible.

From 1 April 2023, there will be an average tariff plan increase of 6.7%. This only applies to the tariff plan and not the overall bill, meaning there is no change to your handset financing or any value-added services. When it comes to your total bill, this means an average increase of 4.2%.

To further absorb as much of the costs as possible, and to make sure you get the best value for money, we've added 20% of additional anytime data to your plan.

Here are the subscription price updates from 1 April 2023:
