Terms & conditions
Bill Payment is a service provided by Vodacom enabling both Vodacom and non-Vodacom customers to pay bills with third party service or product providers ("Service Providers") using Vodacom channels. Bill Payment can be accessed directly on My Vodacom App and Vodacom.co.za.
Vodacom will endeavor to facilitate your bill payment within reasonable time. Vodacom cannot in any way guarantee a turnaround time due to reliance on third parties for handling and posting payments by Service Providers. Please contact the Service Provider for further assistance should you realise that your bill is not updated within normal time.
Only those Service Providers registered with EasyPay or Pay@ are enabled for payment through Bill Payment, i.e. bills that have an EasyPay or Pay@ number linked to them.
Bill Payment presents only those bill details as provided by the Service Provider and it is your responsibility to contact your Service Provider directly if you have any queries with regards to the details presented. Bill Payment is NOT a bill presentment facility and therefore will display the amount due. This amount cannot be altered.
It is your sole responsibility to confirm the bill details prior to making a payment. Vodacom will not be liable for any loss suffered due to incorrect information that was supplied by you, including but not limited to: the incorrect cell number, bill/account number or amount.
You remain a customer of the Service Provider at all times, under no circumstances will Vodacom contact the Service Provider on your behalf, including but not limited, obtaining information related to your account/meter number or request amendment of account details.
These terms and conditions do not in any way overrule, nullify or adjust the terms and conditions entered into between the client, the bank and/or the Service Provide.
Vodacom does not charge a service fee for paying your bill on this platform. However, the relevant bank fees associated with this transaction will be applicable.
Where no amount is populated in the amount due field you may choose to pay any amount in Rands and Cents.
In addition to the above terms and conditions, Vodacom Payment Gateway and VodaPay terms and conditions relevant to your payment transaction; and your bankâs standard terms and conditions relevant to the use of your debit or credit card will apply.
