Published 14 October 2026 · QuickPlug
Nothing ruins match night like an expired subscription. Here is how to renew from your phone.
What you need
- Your smartcard or IUC number.
- The correct package for your decoder.
- Enough money in your wallet.
Steps
- Pick your provider (DStv, GOtv or StarTimes).
- Enter your smartcard number and confirm the name shown.
- Choose the package you want.
- Pay and wait for the confirmation.
If the decoder does not refresh
- Leave the decoder on for a few minutes.
- Check that the package you paid for matches your decoder.
- Switch the decoder off and on again.
- If it still has not updated, keep your payment reference and contact support.
Save money on renewals
Pay a little before the expiry date so you are never cut off during a big match. Compare packages every few months, because the cheapest package that covers what you actually watch is usually enough.
Plans and prices change from time to time, so always confirm the package and amount on the payment screen before you pay.
