Slashtel sells direct Tigo El Salvador top-ups that are delivered to the number in minutes. You pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and the operator is detected from the number you enter. The person receiving the credit does not need to install an app or visit a shop.
The amount that lands on the phone is shown before you pay. For Tigo El Salvador, the plans listed here are not taxed, so the amount you select is the amount credited to the line. Validity depends on the plan: Paquetigo $10 lasts 7 days, Paquetigo $12 lasts 10 days, Paquetigo $15 lasts 15 days, and Paquetigo $20, 50 GB & Unlimited Social Media, and Paquetigo Unlimited data $30 each last 30 days.
The recharge options of $8, $10, $12, $15, $20, $25, $30 and $50 do not carry a stated validity period in the plan list. They are simple balance top-ups, so the credit sits on the line until the operator applies its own expiry rules.
If any plan on a Tigo number is taxed, the amount shown is what lands after the operator's tax. That means the credit reaching the phone is the figure displayed at checkout, not a larger figure reduced later.
Tigo El Salvador numbers have 8 digits and use the 503 dial code. Write the national number as 7012 3456, or the international format as +503 7012 3456. There is no leading zero to drop, so the number you enter should match the digits the person uses on their phone.
A wrong digit can send the top-up to a different line. Check the number against a recent message or call from the person before paying. The operator is detected from the number, so if the checkout shows a network other than Tigo, go back and correct the number.
Most top-ups arrive in minutes. If the credit has not appeared, first check that the number was entered in the correct format and that the operator shown was Tigo. Then ask the person to restart their phone and check their balance again.
If the number was correct and the payment was taken, keep the order confirmation. A top-up that fails to deliver is usually returned to the payment method by the payment provider, but timing depends on the bank or wallet. Do not send a second top-up to the same number until the first one is resolved.
