The scratch card denominations, he said, aligned with GOtv’s bouquets, namely GOtv and GOtv Plus, to enhance the overall user experience of GOtv services.

He quoted the General Manager, GOtv, Mrs. Elizabeth Amkpa, as saying in a supporting press statement, “This payment system is convenient, easy to use, and saves the subscriber money that would have been spent on transportation to a service centre to renew subscription.”

She also said that GOtv recharge follows on the widespread acceptance and popularity of telecoms top-up cards as an instant, easy to access payment options and riding on this platform therefore, will ease the payment for GOtv subscription. 

“In your home, wherever you are, you can use the scratch card to renew your subscription. Because the transaction is real time, you no longer need to go to a MultiChoice office to renew your GOtv subscription,” Mrs. Amkpa said.

She stressed that the objective is to take premium entertainment, news and information to everybody, at affordable rates. 

“With over 26 channels on GOtv and 34 channels on GOtv Plus bouquets, we believe our mission is being achieved,” she said.
