Introduction to Econet data bundles

Zimbabwean operators typically offer data bundles that cover specific popular services such as WhatsApp in addition to traditional data bundles found elsewhere.

Social Media Bundles

Econet’s social media data bundles, bouquets as Econet now calls them, can be put into three depending on the validity period of the data. After the validity period lapses, all unused data disappears. There are daily, weekly and monthly social media bouquets.
