2025 Consumer Contract Pricing Adjustments

Please take note of the price adjustment on your monthly contract.

MTN South Africa has announced adjustments to its consumer contract pricing with the monthly bill increasing by an average 4.4% effective 1 February 2025.

MTN remains committed to providing our customers with a world-class network experience. While macroeconomic and other factors such as network vandalism, battery and generator theft, and increased electricity prices have necessitated this increase, we have aimed to keep it to a minimum.

The 2025 consumer monthly bill increase of 4.4% includes an average subscription fee increase of 8.3% and out-of-bundle voice rates increasing on average by 7.0%. USSD increases from R0.20 to R0.22 per 20 second session and itemised billing, where applicable, increases by R1.00 to R20.00 per month. 

Insurance fees, device fees, out-of-bundle data rates, SMS and MMS rates and add-on bundle fees have remained unchanged. Airtime-based Flexi and Mega Flex plans will, on average, receive 18% more airtime value as part of their monthly subscription.

The following standardised usage charges remain unchanged:

  • Out-of-bundle data: R0.29 per MB, billed in 25 KB increments.

  • R0.35 per local SMS.

  • R0.70 per local MMS.

  • R2.50 per international MMS.

  • R1.69 per international SMS.

Out-of-bundle usage charges will be effective 1 February 2025 while the new subscription fees, and airtime value, where applicable, will be effective from the customers’ bill run date as indicated on their monthly invoice.

As we continuously strive to enhance the quality of our services, this consumer postpaid price adjustment is essential to maintaining the stability of our network and ensuring that our customers can continue to enjoy the benefits of a modern, connected life. We deeply appreciate the trust our customers have placed in us for the past 30 years, and we remain dedicated to offering the best possible value, innovation, and connectivity for their evolving needs over the next 30 years.

Subscription Fees and Local Voice Call rates are below per Price Plan.

Help and Support

Q. When will the adjustments be in effect?

Answer:

  • The out-of-bundle usage charges will become effective from 1 February 2025.

  • Subscription fees, where applicable, will change as per the customers’ Bill Run date. This represents the date on which MTN allocates the customers’ price plan inclusive value and is typically on the 1st, 12th, 17th, and 27th February 2025 for most consumer contract customers.

Q. How did MTN notify me of these adjustments?

Answer:

  • MTN will send you a notification SMS and/or email between the period of 12 December 2024 to 29 January 2025. The general SMS message is as follows:

“Y’ello, please be advised that the monthly subscription on your MTN contract will increase from 1 February 2025. Visit https://mtn.io/2025priceincrease for more information. TsCs apply”

Q.  Why is MTN increasing prices?

Answer:

  • MTN remains committed to providing our customers with a world-class network experience.

  • With macroeconomic and other factors such as network vandalism, battery and generator theft, and increased electricity prices necessitating this increase, we have aimed to keep the price adjustments to a minimum.

  • As we continuously strive to enhance the quality of our services, this consumer postpaid price adjustment is essential to maintaining the stability of our network. 

  • We remain dedicated to offering the best possible value, innovation, and connectivity for their evolving needs over the next 30 years.

Q. What happens to my handset or device instalment amount?

Answer:

  • While the contract between MTN and the customer allows for adjustment on total contract charges relating to the price plan charge specifically, MTN has excluded the handset/device payment portion from any increase. There will be no price adjustments for the handset or device component of the contract.

Q. If I sign up for a new contract, perform an upgrade and/or add an additional contract to my account during January 2025 will the increase still apply?

Answer:

  • Yes, the contract price plan price adjustments are effective 1 February 2024 and will apply to all customers on the selected price plans.

Q. How can I optimise my monthly communication costs better?

Answer:

  • The MTN App allows customers to set Billing Limits to manage total spend.

  • Customers can also recharge their account with prepaid airtime/bundles by using their bank card on our secure App, without having to add further costs to their bill.

Q. Where can I get my statements and/or invoices?

Answer:

  • The MTN App is available on the Google Playstore and Apple iStore. Using the MTN App is DataFree and you can obtain your Statements, Invoices and Itemised Billing by navigating to “Profile” > “Bill” > 

  • The MTN App also allows you to set your Billing Limits, Share Data with others, buy bundles, view balances and get the best value offers on Made4U.
