You can activate your MATE mobile SIM card in our self-care portal or myMATE app
Once you’ve got the app downloaded, it’s time to log in. Grab your MATE account number (what we like to call your MATE code) and your password.
If you’ve forgotten your password, no worries! Just tap “Forgot password,” and we’ll send a reset link to the registered mobile number on your account.
Now that you’re logged in, you can activate your SIM card. Here’s how to do it:
1. Select ‘my orders’ on the main screen:
2. Tap on the mobile order in ‘Pending Delivery‘ status. This will also show the SIM card number – you should verify that this is the same SIM card you have received.
3. You should now see the Update order menu.
If you want to transfer an existing mobile number, select the “I want to transfer an existing number” dropdown and follow the prompts.
