Recharging a Nepal number from Australia takes a few minutes online. You enter the 10 digit number, the operator is detected automatically, you choose an Ncell or Nepal Telecom plan and pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. The top-up goes straight to the number you entered, so your family in Nepal does not need to do anything.
Nepali numbers use the country code 977. A national number such as 984-1234567 is written internationally as +977 984 1234567, and it is 10 digits long. There is no leading zero to drop when you send from Australia.
Most people send a top-up for a parent, a partner or a child studying in Nepal. Because the operator is detected from the number, you do not need to know which network the person uses before you start.
The plans on this page cover both Ncell and Nepal Telecom. Simple recharges include NPR 144, NPR 200, NPR 220, NPR 240, NPR 300, NPR 335, NPR 500 and NPR 535. Data plans include 7GB All Time Data for 28 days and 10GB with unlimited calls for 28 days. There are 16 plans in total.
A plain recharge is the flexible choice. The amount lands on the balance and your family can spend it on calls, data or whatever they need that week. Ncell and Nepal Telecom both offer the NPR 144 and NPR 200 recharges, so the same amount works on either network.
If the person you are helping uses a lot of data, the 7GB All Time Data plan from Ncell runs for 28 days. The Ncell 10GB plus unlimited calls plan also runs for 28 days and suits someone who calls often as well as browsing.
Where a plan is taxed by the operator, the amount shown is what lands on the number after that tax. You see the plan value in the list, not a reduced figure.
A regular top-up is the simple way to keep a Nepal number in use while you live in Australia. Sending a small recharge now and then keeps the balance moving and the number in the hands of your family. It also means the number stays ready for calls and messages when you visit Nepal.
Many Nepali families in Australia hold a local number for visits home or for relatives who still use it. A recharge from Australia means you can support that number without asking someone in Nepal to visit a shop.
Small amounts such as NPR 144 or NPR 200 are easy to send when the balance runs low. If the number is mainly for data, the 28 day plans give a clear period before you think about the next top-up.
Enter the Nepal mobile number as 10 digits, for example 984-1234567. The international form is +977 984 1234567. Do not drop a leading zero, because the example number has none to remove. Check the digits once before you pay, since the top-up goes to the number exactly as entered.
Nepal uses the dial code 977. When you type the number into the order form, the operator is detected from it, so a correct number also means the right network is chosen for you.
If you are copying a number from a message, remove any spaces or punctuation and keep the 10 digits. A mistyped digit sends the top-up to a different person, and the order cannot be pulled back once it is processed.
You pay in Australian dollars with a card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Top-ups start from $2.53. The price you see is the price for the plan you choose, and the plan value is shown in NPR so you know what lands on the number. There are no surprises at checkout.
Payment is taken when you place the order. The top-up is then sent to the Nepal number you entered. If a plan carries the operator's tax, the amount that lands is the figure shown in the plan list, after that tax.
Keep the order details until the top-up arrives. If something looks wrong, contact support with the number and the plan you bought so the order can be checked.
