Today we are all quite used to buying things online using our credit or debit card. However, there are still people who prefer not to have to do this to pay online or in app stores, for example. For all these people there is a service offered by Vodafone to its customers through which it is possible to pay in some digital stores with the same telephone bill. We tell you more about this service.
Vodafone has to its credit a large number of services that are not too well known like this one, and that are really useful. As we will see below, with this service it will not be necessary for us to insert our card in any digital store to buy, since we will be able to make all purchases or subscriptions comfortably through our telephone bill.
Pay third parties with your Vodafone bill
As we said, this Vodafone third-party payment service is very useful for all those people who are reluctant or do not want to use their credit or debit card to buy online. The first and most notable thing to point out about this red operator service is that it is completely free, so you can access it whether you are a contract or prepaid customer.
With this service we can pay for both application purchases and subscriptions to them, and the charges will be reflected on the phone bill. Vodafone customers who choose to use this service will be able to manage all these purchases from the private Vodafone customer area. In the case of prepaid customers, all purchases made will be subtracted from the balance that the customer has at that time.
To access this service you do not have to register anywhere. Simply, you will have to choose “Use Vodafone invoice” as the payment method when buying an application or making a subscription to any of these. You can use this Vodafone service as many times as you want, although we will have a maximum spending limit of 140 euros per month. As we have said before, this allows us to make purchases without the need to enter any card data, which provides more security to the transaction.
All purchases will appear on the invoice as we say as “Third Party Payments”, so all these charges can be identified very easily. In addition, on the invoice you will also find the customer service number of the third party from whom you have purchased a service or content. Currently, it is possible to use this payment method in both the Google Play Store and the Apple Store, so you can access both stores and pay with your bill without problems. You will also be able to make purchases with this method within applications and games.
In addition to being able to buy with this form of payment through the mobile, we will also have the option of doing it through the computer. To do this, first we will have to enter the phone number, and by doing so we will receive an SMS with a self-generating password that will expire 5 minutes after receiving it. Once we enter it in the payment letter, we will have made the purchase. If you have any questions about how this third-party payment service works, we recommend that you contact the operator’s customer service.
