PayPoint to provide top-up service for Smarty mobile

Customers that wish to join Smarty can top-up a SIM pack in-store at any of PayPoint’s 28,000 outlets across the country. Retailers can simply scan the serial number on the back of the SIM pack to directly activate a Smarty plan.

Barcode top-up is also available to existing Smarty customers who can access a barcode by logging into their dashboard via smarty.co.uk, which can then be presented to the retailer to scan.

Smarty is the first mobile network that PayPoint has partnered with where top-ups will not be applied using an e-voucher or swipe card, but by a barcode which allows credit to be applied directly to the customer’s account.

Danny Vant, client services director at PayPoint, said: “We’re pleased that we were able to add this service to our overall offering, transforming convenience for both Smarty customers and our retailers. Smarty is a mobile network breaking new ground and our new top-up solution matches that ambition.”
