About this app

With Telkom Pay, you can make payments, get paid, send money, buy prepaid, store vouchers, and more. Manage your money in your Telkom Pay wallet; you don't need a bank account. You also don't need to be a Telkom customer to use the app; it works on all network providers.



Sign up is easy. Verify your identity through a KYC (Know Your Customer) process for your safety. This process is done on your phone with no paperwork or branch visits. All you need to do is upload your South African identity document, valid passport or driver's license. If you are not a South African citizen, you can upload your valid foreign passport or asylum document. You will also take a 'selfie' for your security to ensure you are who you say you are. Verification is instant, and if successful, you will be able to start transacting immediately.

Ratings and reviews

⚠️ Please beware of this app. Too often there are unauthorized deductions via bogus QR codes and endless emails about "your query being escalated to the relevant department." I'm warning you so you don't fall victim as I did ⚠️

As a Irish citizen visiting SA for 10 days, I purchased a SIM card (50SAR) and credited it with 150SAR, for the purpose of some data to order Ubers. It was an utter waste of money. Not being South African, born in South Africa, living in South Africa and without a South African Bank account, I could not complete the registration of my app account, so my SIM card was totally unfunctional. Frequent foreign travellers beware.

I'd rate more than zero if it was possible. This is just a piece of junk, it's impossible to purchase anything using a virtual card balance. Out of all South African merchants, online shops, this virtual card is unable to transact with them. When paying, OTP gets sent, i copy and paste it, this app fails. Mind you i have a positive balance on the virtual card and on the wallet. Fix this
