These guys are hard at work punting hey. Would be interesting for MyBB to publish an article of the growth of ShowMax for the last 6 months.

Does this mean if I buy it and don't use it in the first few months I might not have an subscription left on the voucher, as they have activate it at the till? Please someone explain this?

I don't get what the point of vouchers are though. Almost anyone who has an internet connection capable of playing Showmax, i.e. ADSL or fibre, almost certainly will have a debit card or credit card that they could use to pay for Showmax. Even my gardener and domestic worker have got debit cards capable of being used to pay for Showmax.

Yes, but many people aren't comfortable paying for things online. Even people on MyBB have this mentality.

You activate a voucher at the tillpoint (check that it hasn't already been scratched) and then "redeem" the voucher via your Showmax account:



This will either activate viewing for the voucher period or extend viewing from the current cut-off date for the voucher period.

Fair enough. The irony of course is that you've more chance of having your card cloned and pin number stolen at Makro when you pay for your voucher than any chance of anything happening if you just paid directly online.

More options to pay for the service is simply better.
