Buy Prepaid Electricity

Electricity is at the centre of our lives. It goes beyond keeping the lights on. It’s part of our daily meals, our entertainment and helps keep us all connected. But, when the units run out what do you do to top them up?

At Flash we’re all about making your life easier. That's why we have a few convenient ways for you to buy prepaid electricity while saving costs.

Cheapest way to buy prepaid electricity

Traditionally, when the lights went off it meant you’d have to take a long trip to the mall. Which took time and money at every turn. From the walk to the taxi or bus to paying for the fare in both directions and potentially adding more essentials to make sure you don’t waste the trip on electricity alone.

Now, with Flash spaza shops in every corner, your next electricity token is only a short walk away. Saving you time and money. So you can spend less time on the admin of buying electricity and more time on enjoying its benefits.

Beyond this, we don’t charge any additional fees when you buy prepaid electricity, making it even cheaper for you to get your lights back on.

Where can I buy prepaid electricity?

We’ve transformed local spaza shops into recharge stations. So you can take a walk to your nearest Flash spaza shop for all your recharging needs, including your prepaid electricity top up.

If you prefer to transact on your phone, we’ve also got you! Download the 1ForYou app on the Google Play or Apple App Store to buy prepaid electricity from wherever you are. It allows you to transact digitally without a bank account or linking to your bank card.
