Prepaid, Top Up/uChoose and Contract customers can purchase Wi-Fi bundles in-store, through the My Vodacom App, the Vodacom Portal and Mobi, USSD *111# and Customer Care on 082111/155. Contract customers can sign up for a 24 month data contract which includes Wi-Fi in-store.
When purchasing a G-Connect Wi-Fi bundle, Vodacom customers will automatically be registered as a “Wi-Fi User” on the G-Connect Wi-Fi network or any of its integrated, third party Wi-Fi networks.
Vodacom customers will gain Wi-Fi hotspot Internet access by using their My Vodacom username and password.
By 2019, the G-Connect Wi-Fi Hotspot network and footprint is set to consist of no less than 6000 national Wi-Fi hotspots, providing more coverage and connectivity convenience to Vodacom customers.
