TESCO - Airtime Recharge

What is Mobile Airtime Transfer

How does Mobile Airtime Transfer work?

TESCO INTERNATIONAL CALLING offers you the ability to transfer your TESCO INTERNATIONAL CALLING credit to your friends and loved ones’ PAY-AS-YOU-GO (PAYG) numbers around the world, safe and secure.

This can be used as a way of supporting your friends and family from afar and help give them credit to make their own calls, helping to make every day a little better. 

To transfer credit to a PAYG phone in another country, you will first need to make sure that you have sufficient credit on your TESCO INTERNATIONAL CALLING account.  Alternatively you can make payments via Google or Apple Pay.

You can start to send airtime by clicking on our "Services" tab:

Once opened, you will see the services available, and you will be able to change the Country.

The first time you select ‘Airtime recharge’ you'll see a screen showing information on how to transfer. Just click 'Next' at the bottom of the screen, and from there you can search for who you are transferring credit to and follow the steps.

You can then view all the options for the value that you would like to send, showing you how much you will be sending.

You'll then receive confirmation that the transaction has been successful, and the credit will be converted to local currency and added to your loved one's PAYG mobile balance, ready for them to start using. 

A record of your transfers will be available to view on the "services" tab, along with the status.

We check our rates regularly, to get you the best offers, so keep checking your app for updates and offers.

Please note:

• This service is for private, non-commercial, and personal use only
• Once credit has been transferred to another PAYG user, it cannot be recovered. Please ensure that the number you are transferring to is correct before completing the transaction. We cannot refund mistakes.
• The full amount will be deducted from your TESCO INTERNATIONAL CALLING app balance
