Vodacom Pay Upfront Bundle

Terms and Conditions

The Vodacom Pay Upfront Bundle is a once-off prepaid data offering that allows you as a Vodacom customer to pay upfront for a selected period and receive a recurring monthly data allocation for the duration of the bundle term. Where your initial data allocation will be allocated to you on your first purchase. With subsequent data allocations automatically being loaded every 30 days for either 3, 6, 9, or 12 months.

Bundle Usage

  1. Where you have multiple active data bundles, the bundle with the shortest remaining validity period will be consumed first. Validity is determined by the number of days remaining for use and not by the bundle allocation period.
  2. Once your bundle benefits have been fully depleted or have expired, you will not be able to continue using data services unless you have opted in to Out-of-Bundle usage. For more information on the Out-of-Bundle Limit Lock service, please visit: https://www.vodacom.co.za/vodacom/terms/data-bundle-terms/out-of-bundle-limit-lock.
  3. Each Vodacom Pay Upfront Bundle allocation is valid for 30 days from the date of allocation. Any unused data at the end of the 30-day validity period will automatically roll over for an additional 30 days, after which any remaining unused data will be forfeited. For more information on Vodacom's data rollover rules, please visit: https://www.vodacom.co.za/vodacom/terms/recurring-data-bundles.
  4. Vodacom may send usage notifications and alerts from time to time, including alerts when you reach specified usage thresholds and reminders before your bundle expires.

Repurchase and Renewals

  1. While your Vodacom Pay Upfront Bundle remains active, the selected bundle allocation will automatically be credited to the mobile number provided when the initial purchase was made.
  2. You will receive a notification each time a bundle allocation is made during your active subscription period, based on the option selected (3, 6, 9, or 12 months).

  4. Once your subscription period has expired, you may purchase a new Vodacom Pay Upfront Bundle.
  5. You may purchase an additional Vodacom Pay Upfront Bundle before your current bundle expires, provided that the new bundle is not the same bundle size and subscription duration as your existing Pay Upfront Bundle.
