Your plug to exclusive data & offers

You’re in your study era, side‑hustle era, glow‑up era – all at once. You need a connection that helps you make moves, not hold you back. Plug’d is here to back your grind with value, learning, and rewards that really count.

Why Plug’d is built for South Africa’s youth

Created exclusively for 18–24‑year‑olds in South Africa, Plug’d understands the hustle: classes, shifts, content drops, and that small business you’re growing on the side. It’s more than just being online – it’s your plug for affordable bundles, exclusive data deals, and tools to level up.

Affordable data combos that keep you sharing

Your digital life is non‑negotiable. Whether you’re posting your latest wins, coordinating with your crew, or running your hustle, Plug’d brings social bundles that give you control without draining your wallet.

Unlimited WhatsApp for 31 days (text, voice, and video) means your group chats, voice notes, and calls can keep rolling with serious value for a full month. That’s the kind of validity that makes budgets breathe.

Unlock learning with Telkom Learn (and more)

Plug’d isn’t just about gigs and minutes. Explore Telkom Learn for courses and content that sharpen your skills. Building a small brand? Look out for programmes like FutureMakers for business know‑how and inspiration. It’s practical fuel for student entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, and first‑job pros.

Tap2Win – lifestyle rewards that add a little extra

A little sprinkle of joy never hurt. With Tap2Win, you’re in line for instant perks – think data vouchers, airtime, and discounts – that help your money stretch further. So, stay active, keep an eye on promos, and give it a spin.
