rain has more than doubled the number of Pargo pick-up points for 4G SIM cards

rain, South Africa’s unlimited data network, is responding to the growing demand for their data-only SIM cards by making them available more broadly. Through their partnership with Pargo, they’ve more than doubled the number of Pick-up Points where customers can collect a rain 4G SIM. There are now 260 Pargo Pick-up Points inside selected Clicks stores in Gauteng, KZN, the Western Cape, North West, the Eastern Cape and Free State.

Customers can find their nearest participating Clicks store by going to the rain website, rain.co.za, and clicking on ‘pick up a 4G SIM today’. To pick up a rain SIM, customers simply ask for one at the Pargo counter in store – they’re free. Once they have it, they activate it at rain.co.za

Not only is the SIM free to collect but once you choose your plan and activate the SIM, you get 7 free days unlimited data.

Once you have the SIM head to the rain website, click on the activate SIM button.

Choose from a range of plans, including unlimited 4G data 24/7 for R479 month-to-month or unlimited off-peak, which offers 19 hours of unlimited data every day, for only R250 a month. These affordable, unlimited data plans have no contracts tying customers in, and have proved very popular with South Africans

To RICA online, customers need a valid South African ID, proof of address (like a bank statement, phone bill or store account) not older than three months, and their smartphone.

In addition, customers can still choose to have their SIMs delivered to their homes for free via the rain website or by ordering through Takealot, and on demand delivery by Mr D Food. But for someone who wants a rain 4G SIM right away, the expansion of Pargo Pick-up Points is welcome news.
