TV Bills

Pay TV bills without going to town

DSTV, GOtv, and StarTimes renew on *714*22# from a village, a hostel, or a night shift. You need the card number, not a bus ticket.

Pay with MoMo and keep the decoder on while it restores.

*714*22#

The old pattern was travel, queue, cash. Ewale’s pattern is a photo of the smartcard and a PIN. The decoder does not care that you are in another region.

Payments happen on Ewale (ewalepay.com or *714*22#), not on this blog.

What you need

  1. A photo of the card / IUC.
  2. Network signal for USSD.
  3. Someone at home to power the decoder afterwards.

The flow on *714*22#

  1. Get the photo.
  2. Pay the matching TV row on *714*22#.
  3. Tell the house to leave the box on.

After you pay

If they still travel to town “to be sure,” they may pay again. Send the SMS so the trip is unnecessary.

If something fails

  • Blurry photo: Ask for another picture. Do not guess the last digit.
  • Decoder off for hours: Activation may sit until the box is alive. That is not always a failed payment.

Transport money is not a TV bill. USSD is.

Keep *714*22# saved. It works when you have no data and no time to go to town. DSTV, GOtv, and StarTimes restore after the same MoMo debit.
