Vodacom offers a wide range of data bundles, from monthly recurring packs to one-off daily deals. Which is best for you? That depends on how you use your data. To help you choose, we’ve identified five data personality types. Pick the one closest to you to find your ideal bundle.
The Nightcrawler
Work all day, party all night. (Even if “party” means “stay up solo watching Netflix alone in bed until 2am”…) This nocturnal animal spends their after-dark hours surfing the web and bingeing shows. Every night, they swear they’ll watch only one more TikTok before going to bed. Instead, they end up scrolling for hours.
Ideal Bundle: Vodacom’s Night Owl bundle is the way forward. With discounted data to use only between midnight and 5 am, it’s perfect for off‑peak browsing, streaming, and downloads.
The Yapper
Just wait ’til you hear this one… The Yapper loves to talk, spending hours on the phone chewing the ear off anyone who’ll listen. They love face-to-face coffee dates and long phone chats, and no mere WhatsApp message could contain all the info they want to share.
Ideal Bundle: Vodacom Hour Voice Bundles let you spill the tea without breaking the bank. These short‑term calling bundles give you discounted minutes for a limited period (typically an hour), and are designed for people who want affordable talk time without committing to large monthly bundles.
The Teacher’s Pet
They’ve got that school spirit… even if they graduated in the 1990s. The Teacher’s Pet is top of the class when it comes to group chats, reminding the rest of us when the history assignment (or the big presentation for head office) is due. While you were still reading this paragraph, they’d already given it a heart emoji.
Ideal Bundle: Designed for messaging, media and status updates, Vodacom’s WhatsApp Bundles are special data bundles that let you use WhatsApp without wiping out your regular data.
The Influencer
“Influenza” is not a viral bug, dah-ling. It’s how this personality type pronounces their preferred job title. They’re the content creators that produce the viral dances, memes and clips that keep everybody else scrolling (sometimes ’til 2am).
Ideal Bundle: If you’re a young creator, then the Super Content Bundle (available through Vodacom’s NXT LVL programme) is the answer. It gives 25 GB of app-specific data for TikTok, YouTube and more, valid for 7 days and at a student-budget-friendly cost of just R69. If you’re a Mommy Blogger, then a Social Bundle does the same thing without asking how old you are.
The Road Trip Parent
South Africa is blessed with beautiful scenery… but you have to sit in the car for hours to see some of it. To save themselves from the chorus of “Are we there yet?”, the Road Trip Parent needs short bursts of data to keep the music streaming and the kids distracted.
Ideal Bundle: Activate an Hourly Data Bundle now, and you’ll have 60 minutes of affordable data access to make the road trip more enjoyable (or to drown out the noise from the back seats).
