Get your ADSL bandwidth with mobile payments

Axxess is well known for its prepaid ADSL vouchers which are available from Pick n Pay and Engen, and has now extended the availability of its prepaid data to mobile payments.

Axxess recently launched its new mobile payment technology in partnership with Pocit, making it possible to purchase data from the ISP using a standard mobile phone.

The Axxess ADSL data vouchers are priced at R70 per GB, and come in sizes between 1 GB and 5 GB.

The ADSL vouchers can also be used at Always On hotspots nationwide where the price will effectively be R70 for 130 MB of data.

If you use your voucher at such a hotspot the bandwidth available on it is immediately reduced to 130MB per R70, explains the Axxess website. Lost bandwidth isn’t recovered if you continue to use the voucher on ADSL afterwards.

Compared to other per-gigabyte services the pricing of these vouchers are a little steep. Axxess itself offers capped month-to-month ADSL services from R19 per GB.

According to Axxess the advantages of the vouchers are that they don’t require a credit card, debit order, or online banking. Prepaid vouchers are also valid for 3 years and any unused bandwidth rolls over to the next month.
