You can utilize e-pins to load up your prepaid phone. It’s an easy way to reload your mobile device.
E-pins are similar to call cards. However, with the technology we have, e-pins are either a secured paper slip or text message. This message is the message that contains the card number and PIN needed to reload your account. You can get e-pins from RCPI outlets to get text-a-PIN. Paper slip e-pins, however, can be gotten from, 7Eleven, Eunilane Supermarkets and RCPI outlets.
