So, you want to add more channels to your DStv? Maybe you've heard about a new movie channel, or your kids are begging for more cartoons. Whatever the reason, adding channels to your DStv package is pretty easy. I remember when I first tried to add a sports channel for my husband; I thought it would be a huge mission, but it only took me a few minutes.

The short answer is that you can add channels to your DStv package through the DStv website, the DStv app, or by sending a text message. It’s a simple process that gives you access to more entertainment without having to upgrade your whole package.

How to Add Channels on DStv

Here are the different ways you can add channels to your DStv subscription:

1. Using the DStv Website

This is the method I usually use because I find it the most straightforward.

• Go to the DStv website: Open your internet browser and go to the official DStv website.
• Log in to your account: Use your email address or mobile number and password to log in.
• Go to "My Account": Once you're logged in, find the "My Account" section.
• Select "Add Channels": Look for an option that says "Add Channels" or something similar.
• Choose your channels: You'll see a list of available channels you can add to your package. Select the ones you want.
• Confirm your selection: Follow the on-screen instructions to confirm and pay for the new channels.

2. Using the DStv App

If you have the DStv app on your phone, you can also add channels there.

• Open the DStv app: If you don't have it, you can download it from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.
• Log in: Use your DStv account details to log in.
• Go to "Manage": Look for a "Manage" or "My Account" section in the app.
• Select "Add Channels": You should see an option to add new channels.
• Pick your channels: Browse the list of available channels and select the ones you want to add.
• Complete the process: Follow the prompts to confirm your selection and make the payment.

3. Adding Movie Channels via SMS

For those who want to add movie channels specifically, DStv has a quick SMS option. Last month, my friend told me about this when I wanted to add a movie channel for a family movie night. It was so convenient!

• Send a text message: Text "add movies" to 060 060 3788.
• Follow the steps: You'll receive a reply with instructions on how to complete the process.

It's important to remember that the channels you can add will depend on your current DStv package. For example, some channels might only be available to Premium subscribers. If you're not sure which package you have, you can check out this article on the DStv Family Package.

Adding extra channels can make your DStv subscription feel brand new. And speaking of getting more for your money, did you know you can earn vouchers for things like airtime and other cool stuff just by playing games and taking surveys on the Points Castle app? It's a great way to get a little extra without spending more.
