Access Premium TXT on a Prepaid Cap

If you're on a Vodafone Prepaid Cap or Flexi Cap and want to vote in your favourite TV show or enter a competition using Premium TXT, you can by recharging with Extras credit.

How much does it cost?

Extras Credit is only available by recharging with $12 or $25 amounts. If you’re recharging with a voucher you’ll need to purchase a voucher of either amount.

How it works

  1. You need Extras credit to access Premium TXT on a Vodafone Prepaid Cap or Flexi Cap. Premium TXT can’t be purchased from the Flexible Credit on these recharge offers
  2. Although unused Extras credit doesn’t expire while you’re connected to Vodafone Prepaid, you can only use it within the expiry period of your recharge product. Eg, if you recharged on a Flexi Cap, your Extras credit can only be used during the 30 day expiry period of the Flexi Cap
  3. If your main account credit expires and you still have unused Extras credit, you’ll be able to access this credit once you recharge your main account again
  4. Extras credit carries over so further Extras recharges will be added to your existing balance. Eg. if you have $3 remaining in your Extras and you recharge with $12, you will have an Extras credit balance of $15

Recharging with Extras credit

Recharging with Extras credit works the same as a normal Vodafone recharge. You can recharge with a voucher, with your registered credit card through My Vodafone or over the phone, or with a credit card using the Express Recharge site.
