• VodaPay offers you a simple and convenient way to manage your money through a digital wallet, allowing you to instantly send money to friends and family members, and to make payments. You can link your credit and debit cards to your wallet and make payments for all the products and services that the app offers. 
• VodaPay also gives you the ability to pay for goods and services at any merchants with a compatible QR code – otherwise known as ‘scan to pay’.
• Additionally, as a VodaPay user we will reward you regularly with cash coupons or cashback into your wallet,  depending on how you send and spend your money.

Through innovative digital technologies, VodaPay provides you with inclusive mobile and financial solutions to make your life a little easier, and a little cheaper. As a super app, VodaPay offers a whole suite of some of the products and services that you use, order and buy every day, all in one app. That means more space on your phone, as well as exclusive deals and discounts from brands and partners within the app, simple and instant payments, free accounts, transfers and transactions, and lower data usage (or none at all, if you’re a Vodacom customer!).

• Once you’ve registered you can link a maximum of six bank cards to your account and add money to your wallet using those in order to make payments through the app, or via scan-to-pay at any VodaPay, Masterpass or Snap Scan merchant. 
• You can purchase prepaid utilities and mobile services through the app, including airtime and data bundles, as well as pay your EasyPay bills and traffic fines. You can also access third-party brands (like Makro) in the form of Mini Programs housed on the super app, and buy or order their products and services without ever having to leave VodaPay.

• A digital wallet is similar to a bank account, but without the need to go into a branch to register. You can keep your money safely in the digital wallet and access it from your VodaPay app.
• You can add money to your digital wallet, send money to other VodaPay digital wallets and withdraw money from your digital wallet to a bank account.
• They provide an easy-to-use payment method so that you can make cashless transactions, meaning you can pay anyone, anywhere, anytime.
• Unlike banks where you pay monthly account fees, as a digital wallet holder you pay zero monthly fees; we’d rather you spend that money on something you need, like a R5 airtime voucher.

• A super app is a consolidated marketplace of products and services from third party integrations, delivered through one platform. 
• What that means is that it’s like an ‘umbrella app’, under which lots of other smaller  apps sit. You can open VodaPay and send money to a friend, order a taxi and then do your grocery shopping before checking your transaction history, all within the one digital space.

It’s super simple. You can download VodaPay from Google Play Store, the Apple App store. VodaPay is currently not available on Huawei AppGallery and will be available soon. VodaPay is compatible with most smartphones - Android version 4.4 and above, as well as Apple version 9.0 and above. Simply download the super app, and register with your details, and you’re good to go.

• You can earn instant rewards from VodaPay based on your transaction behaviour. The more transactions you make, the greater the rewards. 
• Also... it's quick and simple. You don’t need to input your payment details when you spend money on a new service or product; once we have them, we have them no matter what new Mini Programs you utilise.

Yes, and we made security a top priority. All card transactions are processed through 3D-Secure, and VodaPay has world-class risk management capabilities to ensure your full financial security.

Vodapay customers can buy airtime and data, check their balances, use their Vodabucks, pay bills, and buy vouchers on the app without incurring any data charges. Customers will incur data chargers for accessing third-party stores such as OneDayOnly, QuickBus and Onecart, to name a few.

It’s basically an app or digital product offering, designed to drive easy cashless transactions and financial inclusion.

We don’t like to call them “plans”, but we do offer different options based on your needs. We have 4 different types of digital wallets; Entry (that you get when you register on the VodaPay app), Lite (available to South African citizens and permanent residents), an Essential and a Pro wallet (available to South African citizens, permanent residents and foreign nationals). The wallet types vary by transaction limits, and don’t cost you anything.

• VodaPay offers a convenient digital wallet for all users. You will get an entry wallet automatically upon opening your account. To actually add money to your wallet and use it for payments, you will need to expand from this entry wallet, by applying for a Lite, Essential or Pro wallet (these are all free of charge and easy to apply for). 
• You can also link your bank cards in order to make payments. Debit, Cheque and Credit cards from the following banks are accepted: Absa, Nedbank, Standard Bank, Bidvest, Post Bank, Capitec, FNB, Investec, RMB, Discovery Bank, Tyme Bank. 
• Please note that you cannot link AMEX and Diners Cards.

Biometrics are your biological measurements (or your physical characteristics) that we can use to identify individuals. Fingerprint mapping and facial recognition, common now on mobile devices, are forms of biometric technology.

Biometric logins make life that little bit easier, as they avoid you having to remember and key in a PIN or password. They’re also widely considered to be more secure than a PIN or password as they are a direct link between one individual user and their data or account. 

You can turn biometric logins on and off by going to the “Support” section, which you can find under your “Account” menu. Simply toggle the switch on or off as desired, and then confirm your action.

Your wallet balance should always be correct. If there appears to be a discrepancy, this may be due to your wallet limit – check both your Total Balance and your Available Balance for the correct amount. If something still doesn’t look right, check your wallet’s transaction history to see if there are any transactions you forgot. If your balance is still incorrect, please send us an instant message via our instant chat and we will assist you.

Select “Wallet” from the bottom navigation, or tap on the wallet balance on the home page.

Your wallet limit is the maximum available balance you can have in your wallet at a time (our different wallet types have different wallet limits based on your needs). If you exceed your wallet limit, it will display a “total balance” amount, showing you how much you can access at once, compared to how much you have in total.

• The available is the balance you can use to transact now whereas the Total balance may have other uncleared/pending funds that you can't use.
• You will see two balances – available, and total – if you reach your wallet limit. To come back within your limits, you need to either expand your wallet to an option with higher limits, or spend some of your available funds to reduce your balance.

• Everyone who registers on the VodaPay app gets access to an entry wallet, however if you want to add money, send money to friends, or have higher transaction limits, you need to expand this wallet. This can be done quickly and easily, all on the app. Depending on which wallet option you would like, we need some personal information to complete a FICA verification. This ensures we can keep your information safe from financial crime.
• For the Lite wallet, we just need you to share some personal information such as your South African Identification Number, employment details and source of funds. For the Essential wallet, we need a little more confirmation such as a photo of your document and a selfie. For the Pro wallet, we require an address as well.
• We will notify you via your preferred method as soon as your wallet has been expanded. Make sure you check your notification settings so you don’t miss out on any important updates!
