Capitec Airtime and data
Every cell phone needs air time in order to make calls, send texts or photographs and communicate in general. You will also need data if you are planning on using social media, the internet or instant messaging.
If you have a contract, however, you may not need to buy airtime. With some contracts, you can use your phone as much as you like and you will be sent a bill at the end of the month. Similar to how landline telephones work.
With others, you will receive a certain amount of airtime. And if you run out you will have to buy more and top it up the same way that pay as you go users do.

Not so many years ago, all your cell phone would do for you was enable you to make phone calls and send and receive text messages.
It is a small enough task compared to what they can do now, but it was revolutionary for the previous generation.
People could now leave their homes but stay connected to their friends and families! They could take a call anywhere and receive short messages. Without having to sit down at their computers.
However today cell phones are pivotal to our lives. And we use them for a long list of things including but not limited to the following:
