Understanding Prepaid vs Postpaid
A prepaid plan is a one-time mobile service package that is paid in advance, while postpaid plan is a subscription-based service that lets you pay for the services used at the end of a billing cycle, which usually occurs monthly.
Both prepaid and postpaid SIM plans have their pros and cons (learn all about them here) but making the switch from a prepaid to postpaid SIM plan can be a total game-changer for many mobile users. Postpaid plans generally provide greater convenience and come bundled with more perks and extra service features.
Let's look at why upgrading from a prepaid to a postpaid SIM plan could be the best decision for your mobile usage needs!
No Top-up Worries
Say goodbye to the hassle of manual top-ups! In a postpaid plan, you can enjoy the convenience of automatically deducted monthly bills without the stress of needing to monitor your credit balance. This means no service interruptions or last-minute top-up runs—just smooth and seamless connectivity from here on out.
