OTT Voucher can be purchased from more than 150,000 resellers across South Africa. OTT Voucher can be purchased in both local communities and larger cities.
OTT 4 Me is carried by local spazas, convenience stores, tuckshops and family-owned businesses. You will also find OTT Vouchers at nationwide retailers like Spar, Pick n Pay, Caltex, Makro, and Game.
If you have access to the internet, you can buy an OTT Voucher through the official website. Simply navigate to the “Buy” section of the site, and choose the voucher amount you would like to buy.
