Why Pay for Cable TV on Mabro?

Frequently Asked Questions

Pay for DStv and GOtv in Nigeria

Mabro pays cable TV subscriptions for DStv and GOtv. There is no queue at a dealer and no waiting for an agent to come online — you renew from your Mabro wallet and the subscription activates on the decoder.

DStv bouquets

DStv's packages run from the full-access tier down to the most basic, and the difference is mostly how much sport, movies and entertainment you get:

The app lists the bouquets available for your smart card number, with the current price for each before you pay.

GOtv bouquets

GOtv's tiers work the same way, from the top package down to the entry one:

Choosing a bouquet

Two questions decide it for most people: which package carries the sport you actually watch, and how much of it you need. Sports sit on the higher tiers, so if football is the reason you keep a subscription, the entry-level packages will disappoint.

Mabro shows each bouquet's description and current price together, so you can weigh what you get against what each tier costs before committing. You can also check your current subscription and renewal date in the app first.

Renewing, upgrading or switching

You can subscribe to any bouquet available for your smart card number, which means moving up or down a tier as your needs change. Renewing is the same action as subscribing: enter the smart card number, pick the bouquet, confirm with your PIN, and the decoder updates.

Where to find your smart card number

Your smart card number is printed on the front of the decoder, or on the subscription card that came with it, and is usually 10 to 13 digits long. Enter it once and the app retrieves your current package and balance, which is worth checking before you pay.

Paying for someone else

You can pay for any decoder, not just your own — a parent's DStv, or a family GOtv in another state. Enter their smart card number, choose the bouquet and pay from your Mabro wallet. Save it afterwards and renewing next month takes a couple of taps.
