Last checked: 13 September 2026, against Blu Voucher’s website, Blu Voucher’s FAQ, Capitec’s buy-vouchers page, Standard Bank’s buying-a-voucher guide. USSDCode.co.za is an independent guide and is not affiliated with the provider on this page.
Quick Answer
Blu Voucher does not publish a USSD code of its own. You buy a Blu Voucher at retailers, fuel stations, spaza shops, online at checkout.bluvoucher.co.za, or in bank apps such as Standard Bank, Nedbank, Capitec and Discovery Bank. Capitec’s voucher page names Blu Voucher and gives *120*3279# for buying vouchers, but does not say outright that Blu is on the USSD menu.
Steps to Complete This Task
- Choose where to buy: a store or fuel station that sells Blu Voucher, the Blu Voucher checkout website, or your bank app.
- In a bank app, go to the vouchers option (for example Standard Bank: Buy, then Vouchers; Capitec: Transact, then Buy vouchers) and pick Blu Voucher.
- Choose the amount and pay. The PIN, serial number and expiry date appear on the slip, digital voucher or SMS.
- To redeem, use the Blu Voucher option in the redemption partner’s app or website and enter the PIN.
