South Africa’s telecommunications market welcomes a new digital-first connectivity service. Pi, a digital network operator, offers customers a seamless, app- and web-based way to manage both mobile and home connectivity through a single account. In addition to being competitively priced, Pi leverages MTN’s acclaimed network, recognised as South Africa’s best network.

Built for simplicity, flexibility, and control

Pi is designed to solve everyday frustrations customers experience with traditional mobile and home services, such as long queues, rigid plans, contracts, and limited control.

With Pi, customers can build a plan that works for them. They can choose how much data they need and add minutes and SMS whenever required. When life changes, so can their plan. Customers can easily keep their existing number or choose a new one and be connected instantly via eSIM or by ordering a physical SIM - with every step in the customer’s hands. From sign-up to managing, upgrading, downgrading, or even cancelling at any time, Pi ensures full self-service freedom, all through the app or web.

Pi also offers flexibility for both individuals and families, making it easy to stay connected under one account. Whether adding a sister, a helper, or multiple lines, customers unlock incremental savings. The second line unlocks 5% off, with each additional line adding a further 5%, up to a maximum of 20%. In this way, Pi empowers customers to keep their entire household connected while saving more as they grow.

Flexible mobile and home data options

Pi provides a variety of mobile and home data options tailored to customers’ usage. Mobile data starts at 5GB for R99 per month, with larger options - 10GB, 20GB, 40GB, and up to 80GB at R399. Customers may add minutes and SMS, or top up with once-off data, while unused mobile data can roll over for up to 12 months.

For home connectivity, Pi offers data ranging from 200GB up to 1TB, all on superfast 5G speeds ideal for streaming, working, or gaming. Unlike traditional home internet, Pi offers Mobility Bundles starting at R69, letting customers take their home connection with them. Whether on a holiday getaway or visiting family, they can stay online wherever they are, and whenever data runs out, top-ups are always available through the app.

Below are Pi’s mobile and home data options, offering a range to suit every need:

In addition to flexible data options, customers can purchase devices from leading brands like Apple, Samsung, and Huawei. Popular models include the iPhone 17 Pro Max, the Samsung Galaxy A36 5G, and the Huawei H155-386 5G router. These devices are available as once-off purchases, giving customers the freedom to pair top-tier tech with their ideal data option.
