Cheapest R/Mbps in SA
Sticker price isn't value. Divide the monthly price by the download speed - the lower the R/Mbps, the better the deal. Under R700, Metro Nova 80/80 · MWeb wins at R8.11 per Mbps. Promotional rates revert: Metro Nova 80/80 · MWeb goes back to R749; Fibre Geeks 75/25 · MWeb goes back to R789; Frogfoot 60/30 · Webafrica goes back to R699; Frogfoot 60/30 · MWeb goes back to R749; Metro Nexus 60/60 · MWeb goes back to R769; Octotel 55/25 · MWeb goes back to R729.

What Are the Cheapest Fibre Deals in South Africa?
"Cheapest" depends how you cut it: (A) the lowest sticker price per month, (B) the lowest total cost over 12 months once router and install fees are added, or (C) the best price-per-Mbps. All three matter - and the cheapest by one measure is rarely the cheapest by all three.
By sticker price, the cheapest uncapped, monthly-billed fibre line in the table above is FibreSuburb Networks 5/5 Mbps for R279/month on MWeb - R3 348 over twelve months before any once-off order or router fee. The catch is the speed: 5 Mbps down and 5 Mbps up is a one-person line, not a household one.
By price-per-Mbps, the winner under R700 is Metro Nova 80/80 at R649 on MWeb - R8.11 per Mbps of download, a promotional rate that reverts to R749. Stay under R400 and the best per-megabit line is Metro Nexus 30/30 at R379 on MWeb - R12.63 per Mbps, a promotional rate that reverts to R529.
Pre-paid passes are listed in the table too, but they are excluded from every "cheapest" and "from" figure on this page: their price buys one pass over its validity window, not a month of service, so comparing them against monthly lines is comparing two different things.
Coverage is decided street-by-street: every recommendation on this page is conditional on your address being lit up by the relevant Fibre Network Operator. The first thing to do is always an address coverage check - the cheapest deal you can actually get installed is the only one that counts.

Cheap Fibre vs LTE, 5G & ADSL
Cheap fibre is now the cheapest real internet you can buy in South Africa - beating LTE on price, ADSL on speed and 5G on reliability.
| Technology | Typical Speed | Monthly | Install | Contract | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cheap Fibre (R279) | 5/5 Mbps | R279 | Free | Month-to-month | The cheapest monthly fibre line in the table above - MWeb on FibreSuburb Networks. |
| Fixed LTE | 10–25 Mbps avg | R299–R549 | Free router | 12–24 months | Worth it only if fibre is unavailable at your address. |
| 5G Home | 50–200 Mbps avg | R599–R999 | Free router | 12–24 months | Faster than cheap fibre, but pricier and patchy in lower-income suburbs. |
| ADSL (legacy) | 2–10 Mbps | R449+ inc. line | Telkom fee | Month-to-month | Avoid. Telkom is decommissioning copper. No reason to start a new ADSL line in 2026. |

Check Cheap Fibre Deals
Understanding Fibre Internet
What is fibre internet?
Fibre internet is delivered through fibre-optic cables - tiny strands of glass or plastic that carry data using pulses of light. Light moves a lot faster than electricity through copper, which is why fibre obliterates ADSL on speed, latency and reliability.
The benefits add up: vastly higher bandwidth, lower latency, more simultaneous users without slowdown, and no degradation over distance the way copper suffers.
Why choose fibre?
Fibre is the most advanced consumer-grade connectivity available. It's far less susceptible to environmental interference than copper, and many fibre packages offer symmetrical upload/download - vital for video calls, cloud backups and online gaming.
The infrastructure is genuinely future-proof. The cable in the ground today can carry tens of gigabits per second tomorrow without being touched.
What's the Difference Between Each Cheap Deal?
Four things separate cheap fibre deals from one another: (1) the speed, (2) the price, (3) the network (FNO) and (4) the ISP. The last two have the biggest impact - your address determines which networks you can get, and only certain ISPs sell on each network.
Frogfoot Air packages are worth a special mention - they include both data and line rental, but coverage is limited and street-by-street. If fibre isn't available at your address at all, fixed LTE is the usual stop-gap.
How to Spot a Genuinely Cheap Deal
The headline price is only half the story. Six checks that separate a real bargain from a clever marketing line.
Calculate the true first-year cost
Multiply the monthly price by 12 and add the once-off fees before deciding which deal is genuinely cheaper. The cheapest line on this page, MWeb's FibreSuburb Networks 5/5 Mbps at R279, is R3 348 over twelve months before any once-off order or router fee - and those fees differ by ISP, so read the "what else to know" panel on the deal itself.
Don't ignore the upload speed
A 1-2 Mbps upload is fine for browsing and Netflix but breaks down on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, online gaming and cloud backup. If anyone in the house works from home or studies online, insist on at least 10 Mbps upload - every deal in the table shows its upload speed.
Calculate the price per Mbps
Divide the monthly price by the download speed. MWeb's FibreSuburb Networks 5/5 Mbps at R279 is R55.80 per Mbps. MWeb's Metro Nova 80/80 Mbps at R649 is R8.11 per Mbps for 80 Mbps of download. The cheapest sticker price is rarely the best value.
Avoid 24-month contracts
The cheapest deals on this page are month-to-month. Anything locked in for 24 months freezes you at today's price while next year's better promotions roll past. South African fibre prices have dropped roughly 8% per year for five years running.
Check coverage before signing
FibreSuburb Networks may be live a few streets away but unavailable at your address. South African fibre is street-level - coverage on one side of a road and not the other is normal. Run an address-level check first; the cheapest deal you can actually install is the only one that counts.
Watch the promo expiry
Many of the cheapest rates in the table are introductory promotions that revert to a higher standard rate after roughly three to four months. Every promotional deal shows its standard price struck through above the promo price - budget for the standard rate, not the headline one.
Benefits of a Cheap Fibre Deal
The cheap tier isn't a compromise - for most households it's the smartest possible buy.
Lower monthly costs
The biggest draw of a cheap fibre deal is a smaller monthly bill. On a tight budget, R279–R345 buys a real, uncapped fibre line - no DSL, no LTE data caps, no surprises.
Faster than ADSL or LTE
Even the cheapest fibre line beats ADSL and LTE on every metric: latency under 10ms, almost zero packet loss, and the line doesn't slow down in load-shedding or bad weather.
Future-proof infrastructure
The fibre cable in your wall today can carry tens of gigabits per second tomorrow. Buy in at the cheap tier now and upgrade your speed package later without ever changing the line or the router.
Truly uncapped data
Almost every cheap fibre deal is uncapped with no Fair Usage Policy. Stream 4K, back up to iCloud, run a home office and game competitively - without watching the data meter.
Month-to-month flexibility
Most cheap deals are month-to-month with 30 days' notice. Move home, downgrade, upgrade or cancel - the cheap tier is the easiest to live with long-term.
Install in 7–14 days
Once your address is approved on a network, Webafrica will have a technician on-site within 7–14 working days. The line goes live the same day in most cases.
Pick the Right Cheap Deal for You
Cheapest isn't always best. Match the package to the household - these are the value picks at every level.
Single user, light browsing
FibreSuburb Networks 5/5 - R279
Email, WhatsApp, social media, the odd Netflix HD episode. The cheapest line in the table, and enough for one person who isn't on daily video calls.
Couple, casual streaming
Fibre Geeks 20/10 - R349
Two phones, one TV, occasional 4K streaming. The cheapest line on this page with at least 20 Mbps download, and a 10 Mbps upload that handles WhatsApp video calls, Zoom and the occasional Teams meeting.
Small household, multiple devices
Metro Nexus 30/30 - R379
Up to four people, smart-home devices (cameras, speakers, lightbulbs), daily Netflix in HD. The cheapest line here at 30 Mbps or better, so every device has room to breathe at peak time.
Work-from-home professional
Openserve Web Connect 40/20 - R427
Daily video calls, large file uploads to Google Drive or Dropbox, a second person streaming. The cheapest line here with 40 Mbps down and at least 10 Mbps up - the upload is the deciding factor, anything less stutters on Teams.
Gamer or content creator
Metro Nova 50/50 - R539
Symmetrical speeds, low latency (under 10ms in most SA suburbs), reliable upload for Twitch streaming and large Steam/PlayStation patches. The cheapest symmetrical 50 Mbps-plus line on this page.

Fibre Terminology
The four words you'll see on every ISP's site. Know what they mean before signing.
Uncapped
No data usage limit. Use as much data as you want - no extra charges and no throttling for going over a hidden cap.
Capped
A set monthly data allowance. Exceed it and you'll either pay top-ups (around R29 per GB) or face a sharp drop in speed.
Throttled
The ISP intentionally slows your speed once you've used a certain amount of data, even on plans labelled 'uncapped'.
Shaped
The ISP prioritises some traffic over others - for example, web browsing over BitTorrent or game traffic at peak times.
Symmetrical
Upload and download speeds are equal. A 50/50 Mbps line is symmetrical; a 30/10 Mbps line is asymmetrical (downloads 3× faster than uploads).
FNO
Fibre Network Operator - the company that owns the cable in the ground (Vumatel, Openserve, Frogfoot, Octotel, Metrofibre). The ISP rents capacity from the FNO.
ISP
Internet Service Provider - the company you pay each month (Webafrica, Vodacom, Cool Ideas). The ISP delivers the internet over the FNO's network.
ONT
Optical Network Terminal - the small box bolted to your wall by the technician on installation day. The fibre cable plugs into it; your router plugs out of it.
How Many People in the House?
The number of users is the single biggest factor in choosing the right speed.
1–2 people
20–35 Mbps
Browsing, email and one or two simultaneous Netflix streams. Bump it to 50 Mbps if you both stream 4K or game online at the same time.
3–4 people
50–100 Mbps
Comfortable for a family with kids on YouTube and Netflix. Lean toward 100 Mbps if anyone games online, streams 4K or works from home daily.
5+ people
100 Mbps+
A busy household with multiple TVs, devices and work-from-home users needs at least 100 Mbps to keep every connection smooth at peak time.

FAQs on Cheap Fibre Deals
The questions everyone asks before signing up for a sub-R500 fibre deal.
MWeb's FibreSuburb Networks 5/5 Mbps at R279 a month. Over twelve months that is R3 348 before any once-off order or router fee. The next cheapest monthly lines are Afrihost's Openserve Web Connect 10/5 Mbps at R307, RSAweb's Openserve Web Connect 10/5 Mbps at R315, MWeb's Openserve Web Connect 10/5 Mbps at R319.
Netflix recommends 5 Mbps for HD and 15 Mbps for 4K, so the 5 Mbps download on the R279 line handles HD on a device or two. If anyone in the house is on daily video calls, step up: the cheapest line here with at least 20 Mbps down is MWeb's Fibre Geeks 20/10 Mbps at R349, a promotional rate that reverts to R449.
Joburg is well covered by Openserve, Vumatel, Frogfoot, Metrofibre and Octotel, and the entry packages in the table above appear in most northern and southern suburbs including Sandton, Randburg, Roodepoort, Fourways and Johannesburg South. We do not price by suburb - coverage is street-level, so always check the exact address before signing.
Cape Town is dominated by Vumatel, Octotel and Openserve, with Frogfoot widely available in the Northern Suburbs (Bellville, Brackenfell, Durbanville). Filter the table above by network to see the live price on each of them, then run an address check - the same package is priced the same nationwide, but only some networks reach any given street.
Pretoria is mostly Openserve and Metrofibre territory, with growing Vumatel coverage in Centurion, Brooklyn and Menlo Park. Filter the table above to those three networks to see which entry package is cheapest on each, and use the symmetrical-only filter if you need matching upload.
Durban (eThekwini) is mostly Openserve country, with Vumatel filling in Umhlanga, Berea and Durban North, and Frogfoot rolling out in parts. Filter the table above by network to see the live price on each - pricing is national, coverage is not.
Use Webafrica's address coverage checker: enter your street address, and it returns every network and package available at that address - sorted by price. The cheapest deal you can actually get installed is the only one that matters; everything else is theoretical.
Two to watch. First, once-off fees: several ISPs charge an order-processing or router-delivery fee on the first invoice, and the amount differs by ISP and package - the "what else to know" panel on each deal in the table spells out the one that applies. Second, promo expiry: where a deal shows a struck-through price, the cheap rate is introductory and reverts to that standard price after roughly three to four months. Most cheap deals are also month-to-month with a clawback if you cancel inside the first year.
Yes. Promotional discounts are common for new customers, and free routers, free installation and reduced first-month rates appear regularly. Existing customers rarely get the same offers, so it pays to shop around at renewal - or simply switch ISP every 12–24 months on the same fibre line.
Fibre is now cheaper than the equivalent ADSL line and roughly the same price as fixed LTE - but with vastly better service. From R279 a month you get an uncapped, low-latency, fully reliable connection. There's no good reason to stay on ADSL or start a new LTE contract if fibre is available at your address.
The Fibre Network Operator (Frogfoot, Openserve, Vumatel, Octotel, Metrofibre and the smaller regional networks) sets the wholesale cost, and the ISP adds its own margin on top. That is why the same speed lands at different prices on different networks, and why the cheapest line on this page runs on FibreSuburb Networks rather than one of the big five. Filter the table by network to see the spread for yourself.
Most cheap deals are month-to-month with no fixed contract - give one calendar month's notice and you walk away. If you cancel within the first 12 months, a cancellation or router-recovery fee may apply to recover the cost of the router supplied free at signup; the amount is set by the ISP and is spelled out in the "what else to know" panel on each deal.
No. Webafrica includes a free Wi-Fi router with every cheap fibre deal, configured and ready to plug in on installation day. The router stays with you for as long as you keep the line; if you cancel inside the first 12 months you may be billed for it.
Once you sign up and the network confirms coverage, installation is typically scheduled within 7–14 working days. The technician runs the fibre cable from the boundary to your wall, mounts the ONT, and plugs in the router. The line is usually live the same day.
For one work-from-home user, yes - provided you choose a deal with at least 10 Mbps upload. On this page the cheapest line meeting that bar with a 40 Mbps download to go with it is Afrihost's Openserve Web Connect 40/20 Mbps at R427. For two simultaneous video-callers, jump to a symmetrical line - the cheapest 50 Mbps-plus symmetrical package here is MWeb's Metro Nova 50/50 Mbps at R539, a promotional rate that reverts to R639.
The fibre line itself doesn't need power, but your router and the network's local PoP (Point of Presence) do. Most major FNOs (Vumatel, Openserve, Frogfoot, Octotel) have battery backup at their PoPs covering up to 4 hours of load-shedding. To stay online at home, add a small UPS for your router and ONT.
