Why transfer airtime?

It's also an easy way to share airtime between accounts, especially if one account has more airtime than they need. Additionally, it can be a way to give back to the community, as some people may not be able to afford airtime on their own.

- Enter the amount of airtime you would like to transfer. (Note that there is a minimum transfer amount of R5.)
- Confirm the transfer and wait for the transaction to be completed.
Once the transfer is complete, the recipient will receive a notification confirming the airtime transfer.
