As millions of South Africans continue to face challenges with both electricity access and digital services, the new Prepaid24 – Transact WhatsApp channel responds to a pressing need. Users can now easily purchase prepaid electricity, pay municipal accounts, buy airtime, data, and various vouchers—all through a simple and familiar WhatsApp chat interface. 'This introduction of our WhatsApp channel directly responds to the ongoing challenges South Africans face with electricity access and digital inclusion,' said Ben Lindeque, Co-Founder and Business Architect at Prepaid24.

Next Stay Close ✕ Despite the growing prevalence of online payments, a substantial portion of the population remains hindered by limited internet access, unfamiliarity with complex online platforms, and lacking traditional banking infrastructure. By utilising WhatsApp, one of the most widely used communication tools in the country, Prepaid24 facilitates a more inclusive, user-friendly solution. 'Like many South Africans, I found navigating websites and making online payments intimidating, especially when things didn't go as planned. That personal frustration inspired us to build something radically simpler, something that meets users where they are: on WhatsApp,' Lindeque said. How the WhatsApp platform works The operational mechanics of the new Prepaid24 platform underscore its user-centric design. Users can initiate transactions simply by sending a 'Hi' message to 060 012 2010. Following this, they can select their desired service and make payments via Ozow's Instant EFT or the Prepaid24 SmartFund, with a PayShap integration set to be introduced shortly. Purchase confirmations and tokens are delivered instantaneously through the chat as well. This service comprehensively covers over 95% of South African municipalities and Eskom meters, making it relevant to a broad demographic across the nation. Beyond offering electricity top-ups, the platform also includes vouchers for popular streaming services like Netflix, DStv, Showmax, alongside familiar shopping options such as Takealot and Pick n Pay. Jonathan Williams, Founder and CEO at Chat Inc, expressed enthusiasm for this venture. Image: Supplied. This ground-breaking platform originates from a synergistic partnership among Prepaid24, Chat Inc, and Ozow. Chat Inc, recognisably known as 'the WhatsApp people', facilitates chat commerce experiences for numerous prestigious South African brands, providing solutions ranging from lead acquisition to enterprise-grade transactional chatbot platforms. Jonathan Williams, Founder and CEO at Chat Inc, expressed enthusiasm for this venture. 'We are thrilled to power this first-of-a-kind utility purchase channel in WhatsApp and to collaborate with such an innovative partner like Prepaid24. We're passionate about innovation and building technology that feels natural, and WhatsApp is where South Africans already live,' Williams said. Ozow's involvement ensures a secure and real-time payment processing framework for all transactions. Their expertise has resulted in a seamless payment journey, allowing users to receive their tokens and vouchers within seconds. This launch signifies a substantial trend towards leveraging widely adopted messaging platforms to deliver essential services, aiming to bridge digital divides and promote financial inclusion in South Africa. 'By simplifying the process of purchasing critical utilities like electricity and everyday vouchers, the platform could benefit a significant portion of the population, particularly those in underserved communities or those less comfortable with conventional online banking methods,' added Lindeque.

Failure to finalise budget will hurt SA's vulnerable members of society the most

JOHANNESBURG - Deputy finance minister and African National Congress (ANC) MP, David Masondo, said that political squabbling over the budget would come at a high price for service delivery. Masondo's warning about the impact on South Africans comes as MPs prepare to vote on the Appropriation Bill in the National Assembly on Wednesday afternoon. If it passes, it will bring to a close four months of an intense back-and-forth between parties over government's spending plans. ALSO READ: • Budget 2025: MK Party, EFF call Appropriation Bill anti-poor • Parliament's Appropriations Committee stresses importance of economic growth to support social wage • Steenhuisen: DA will support Appropriation Bill • Parliament preps for possibility & implications of national budget not being passed Masondo said that failing to finalise the budget would hurt the vulnerable the most. In budget 3.0, National Treasury focused on plans to address the persistent spending pressures to restore critical frontline services and invest in infrastructure. This is part of a broader plan to improve access to basic services and turn the economy around. The delays in tabling the budget and voting in favour of it mean that from August, government will only be able to spend 10 percent of the previous year's appropriation budget per month. Deputy Finance Minister David Masondo: "Our estimation is that by October 2025, the government will be without authority when we reach 100% of last year's appropriation." He said that the cost to service delivery was insurmountable. "We should not prolong the passing of this bill because ultimately, it is the most vulnerable members of society who depend on grants, public clinics and schools who will suffer the most." The EFF and MK Party are expected to vote against the Appropriation Bill, while ANC and DA MPs are expected to vote in favour of it.

Honor and Blue Bulls announce technology device partnership

The technology and innovation company has been announced as the technology device partner, ushering in an era of technologically driven performance for the Pretoria outfit. The Blue Bulls are proud to announce global technology brand, Honor, as their exclusive technology devices sponsor. The significance of this partnership signifies the huge shift that has been happening in global sports, in which gaming tactics and technology are increasingly relying on each other to ensure the best possible team coordination and performance outcomes. The collaboration emphasises Honor's dedication to fuse useful technology with everyday life, work and play. The brand's notable 180% growth rate in 2024 and the milestone achievement of over one million units sold in South Africa demonstrate its investment and activity in the South African market. Its latest corporate strategy, the HONOR ALPHA PLAN, aims to transform the future of AI and smart technology, from digital AI agents to physical applications that will redefine human interaction with intelligent devices. As the technology partner to the Bulls, Honor will equip the team with smart technology, supporting the players and technical teams with smart devices across its extensive product range to improve their game, connect with fans and simplify their daily living. Fred Zhou, CEO of Honor Technologies Africa, expressed that, 'The Blue Bulls are a South African brand that is synonymous with sporting achievement that unites South Africans from all walks of life. The team has a great history of brilliance in on-the-field performance as well as fostering a strong relationship with communities that form part of its fanbase. As Honor, we've decided to join this family and together we intend on ushering an era of technology and innovation-driven performance and connection.' Rugby is a huge part of the lives of South Africans. Every success achieved on the pitch has a significant impact on the mood and attitude of the country. The link between this sporting culture and technological innovation can only maximise the success we've come to expect over the years. 'For us as the Bulls, this partnership with Honor entrenches our longstanding commitment to continually improve the efficacy of our team's coordination, communication and performance on and off the field. This extends beyond the players and technical staff, but to the fans who have supported this great team and who see it as an extension of themselves,' says Blue Bulls CEO, Edgar Rathbone. Seamless trust between technological innovation and people can be likened to the tact, adaptability and awareness required in the field of play. The association between performance and innovation is implicit. 'As with our recently launched HONOR 400 & 400 Pro devices which deliver steady, social-ready results every time, manifested in crisp, AI-enhanced zoom of up to 50×, the Blue Bulls player is an individual who stays steps ahead in the game, and I must say that we're glad to be partnership with them,' summed up Fred Zhou.
