How to Redeem Telkom Ziada Points
Telkom Ziada points are a loyalty scheme that rewards a Telkom pre-paid subscriber for using Telkom services.
It operates in the same way as bonga points. These points are awarded to you every time you make a call, send a text message, or buy data using your Telkom line.
The points can be redeemed for a number of rewards, like airtime, which can be utilized across networks for calls, texts, and data.
As a subscriber, you earn 1 point for every 1 Ksh you pay out on texts, calls, or data. If, for instance, you spend KSH 500 on any of the products mentioned above, then it translates to 500 Ziada points. The more money spent, the more Ziada points will be earned.
How to sign up for Telkom Ziada Points
As a Telkom pre-paid subscriber, you do not need to do anything to join the loyalty program. This is because you were automatically registered for the Ziada loyalty points program when you registered your Telkom line as a pre-paid user.
Ziada Points are awarded to you every time you use any of Telkom’s products and services.
How to check Telkom Ziada points balance
Before redeeming Ziada points, the subscriber needs to check how many points they have accumulated.
A subscriber may then check their Ziada points balance by simply dialing *126# on their Telkom line. There will be a screen pop-up message displaying the number of Ziada points available.
Can Ziada points be transferred?
A subscriber cannot transfer Ziada points to a friend or family member.
How to Redeem Ziada Points
A subscriber must have enough Ziada points to enable them to redeem the desired reward.
Telkom has a USSD code that subscribers can use to reclaim the points earned. To do this, a subscriber should follow the steps below:
- Dial *126#
- Choose an option from: a) Get the Freedom Data Bundle
- b) Get free airtime (across networks)
- A confirmation message will be sent to you for successfully reclaiming items using Ziada points.
It is important to note that the airtime awarded after redeeming the Ziada points is only viable for up to three days, after which it expires.
Do Telkom postpaid subscribers earn Ziada points?
As a post-paid subscriber, you will not earn Ziada points while using Telkom services, as you are not eligible for the loyalty program.
