Compare Mobile Data Prices

[TheOracle]

I have build a tool to compare prepaid mobile data prices.

The idea is simple. Prepaid data pricing in South Africa is a mess, because every network packages data, validity and bonus gigs in a slightly different way, so comparing them in your head is almost impossible. This tool does the work for you. You tell it roughly how much data you use in a month, and it instantly ranks the cheapest deal across Vodacom, MTN, Cell C and Telkom, plus the MVNOs Melon, AirMobile, Capitec Connect and FNB Connect.

Any one interested can have a look here:

I have said it before, for 100 GByte mobile data MTN is the cheapest at R349 for 100+100 GB nite, only on the MoMo app. I guess the above comparisons don't consider in-app only specials.

The Capitec's true 30-day bundles was missing from the tool, they are now added.

Useful! Should have a data/voice/sms bundled comparison as well

Nedbank Connect now also added.

Your MTN is wrong atm:

20GB + 20GB 30 Days R199 in app

It does change often though.

I cancelled a red plan with Vodacom last week and requested the SIM to be converted to prepaid. This will happen at month-end.
I am looking to sign up for a month-to-month Vodacom Powerflex deal.

Does anyone know of any similar deals out there I should be looking at?

Thanks, you were right. Fixed now.

I had MTN's normal prepaid prices, which is what you get on the website or by USSD, but the app deals are a lot cheaper for the same thing. Added both: 20GB + 20GB for R199 in the MTN App, and 100GB + 100GB for R349 on MoMo, which ajax flagged earlier in the thread. Both are marked "app only" so nobody walks into a shop expecting that price.

Agreed that they change often, so I'll keep an eye on it.
