How to Top Up a Mobile Number

Mobile top-ups work a little differently from gift cards - instead of a code, the balance is applied directly to a phone number.

Steps

  1. Go to Recharge & Bills Pay and select the country and operator.
  2. Enter the mobile number you want to top up, in local or international format - either works.
  3. Choose the top-up amount.
  4. Choose a payment method and complete payment.
  5. The balance is applied directly to that number - usually within minutes, though it can occasionally take a little longer if the mobile operator is slow to confirm.

Double-check the number

Top-ups go to the exact number you enter, so it's worth double-checking it before paying - once a top-up is delivered to a number, it can't be redirected to a different one.
