Upgrade your Vodacom contract online, instantly.

Get it today via Click & Collect or Same Day Delivery.

Contract T&Cs apply.

There isn’t always enough time in a day to get to everything on your to do list and getting to a store on a lunch break is not easy either. At iStore, we’re making contract upgrades that much easier with this new service that allows customers who are due for a Vodacom contract upgrade to apply online from anywhere in the country at any time of day.

If that’s not enough, you can choose if you want it delivered to your doorstep within 48 hours or if you’d prefer to pick it up at one of our iStore’s situated nationwide. We have same day delivery options for Johannesburg, Pretoria and Cape Town.

What you should know:

This service is only available to Vodacom customers on personal contracts at this time.

You’ll need to have proof of ID and Proof of address in PDF or jpeg format ready before you start.

The best location to upgrade from is wherever you are. At home, at the office, in a coffee shop queue, waiting for schools to come out for the day or just about anywhere you have an internet signal.

We have a wide range of iPhone accessories to choose from. You can add accessories to go with your new iPhone to your cart with your upgrade before checking out.

If you had your heart set on doing a trade in, you can still do this using the online trade in service. No need to come into a store. We’ll send a courier to fetch your old phone and once evaluated, deposit the confirmed trade in value into your bank account. All you need to do is add the Trade in kit at checkout.
