Vouchers
Many of us would like to financially support our families or friends in South Africa. You can send money directly to them but there are always extra costs involved. A great option is to buy them gift cards or vouchers or order items for them online. Most of the big retail shops offer gift vouchers or have online shops for example PicknPay.
Checkers 360 promises to deliver groceries within 60 minutes. They however have a limit of 30 items per order. The major issue with the Checkers app is that it does not accept Foreign Credit cards (status 01.10.2023) You can buy Shoprite Checkers Vouchers on Computicket
For a selection of vouchers (Netflix, Uber Eats, Makro, PnP, Woolworths, Mobile phone vouchers, etc) visit the eGifts24 Website
