We are starting to charge in South African Rands (in South Africa only), instead of US dollars for a variety of reasons.

The drawback to this to you as an end-user in South Africa is that we have to add Value Added Tax (14%) to all your credit purchases in the future.

The benefit is that our Skyrove hotspot providers will no longer be losing revenues because of overseas bank transfers, and therefore we expect to see reductions in pricing at hotspots soon.

Another benefit is that the price per credit is now fixed at 8 South African cents, including VAT, and does not vary based on the exchange rate.

Furthermore, our new credit card processing system is a lot quicker than PayPal was, and also does not ever require you to register for any special service such as PayPal’s, which should lead to a lot less frustration.

If you are having any problems making payments with the new system, please don’t hesitate to contact us on info@skyrove.com or by phone on +27 (21) 4488843.

Best,
Henk
