You recharge a Saudi Arabia number from India by entering the Stc-Sawa KSA Direct Recharge number in Slashtel, picking a SAR plan and paying by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. The operator is detected from the number itself, so you do not need to choose a network or install anything, and the top-up goes straight to the number you entered.
A top-up is useful when a family member in Saudi Arabia needs credit and you are paying from India. You do not need a Saudi bank account or a local card. The amount you pay is in your own currency and the recipient gets SAR credit on the Stc-Sawa KSA Direct Recharge number.
Slashtel lists 8 Stc-Sawa KSA Direct Recharge plans, from SAR 17.39 to SAR 300, and every one is valid for 90 days. The receive amount is what lands on the Saudi number, so a SAR 20 plan gives SAR 20 of credit and a SAR 50 plan gives SAR 50.
The plans suit different needs. SAR 17.39, SAR 20 and SAR 25 are small top-ups for a short gap before payday or for a number that only needs to stay reachable. SAR 30 and SAR 50 cover a normal month of calls and messages for many people. SAR 100, SAR 200 and SAR 300 are larger top-ups, useful when you want to cover several months at once or when the person in Saudi Arabia relies on the number for work.
Because every plan runs for 90 days, a single top-up keeps the number funded for a full quarter. Choose the amount your family member actually uses rather than the largest one, since credit sits on the number until it is spent.
A Saudi Arabia number stays reachable for 90 days on any plan listed here, which helps when the person holding it is away from Saudi Arabia or when you in India are managing the line for someone else. A regular top-up keeps the number funded without a Saudi bank account.
Many families keep a Saudi number alive after a member returns to India, because banks, employers and friends still use it. A top-up from India means you can maintain that number from your own phone, paid with a card you already hold.
The 90 day validity on every plan makes planning simple. Note the date of your last top-up and repeat it before the quarter ends. You can send a small SAR 17.39 or SAR 20 top-up to hold the line, then add a larger amount when the person needs to make calls.
Saudi mobile numbers have 9 digits. In national form they are written with a leading zero, such as 051 234 5678. In international form the zero is dropped and the country code 966 is added, giving +966 51 234 5678. Enter either form and check the number before you pay.
The common mistake is keeping the leading zero after the country code. If you type +966 051 234 5678, the number is wrong. Drop the zero and use +966 51 234 5678.
The operator is detected from the number you enter, so the correct Stc-Sawa KSA Direct Recharge plan list appears automatically. Read the number back once against your contact list before confirming. A top-up sent to a wrong number cannot be pulled back, so this check matters more than any other step.
You pay from India by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and top-ups start from $10.80. The price you see is the amount you pay, and the SAR value shown for each plan is what the Saudi number receives after the operator's tax is applied.
Where a plan carries the operator's tax, the SAR figure listed is the amount that lands on the number, not a pre-tax figure. That means the credit your family member sees matches the plan you chose. Slashtel does not add hidden charges at checkout, and you confirm the total before paying.
Payments are processed in your own currency from an Indian card or wallet, so you do not need a Saudi account. Keep the confirmation after payment and share the plan details with your family member so they know what to expect on the number.
