Game’s ways to pay and save this Black Friday

 ·22 Nov 2022

With consumer budgets more stretched than ever, saving on the items we need – and want – has become the cornerstone of purchasing decisions.

This is especially true as we approach Black Friday – a time of year where many consumers plan to purchase big-ticket items, such as large appliances, electronics and TVs.

The good news is that Game is making it easier than ever before to save on your wish-list items this Black Friday, offering several ways to finance your purchases.

“We are aware that the South African consumer continues to battle the rising cost of living, inflation and interest rates.”

“This impacts their ability to make purchases, including necessities.”

“As a responsible retailer, we have answered the call from our customers for more innovative ways to pay and save on their purchases,” says Andrew Stein, Vice President of Game.

How to save at Game this year:

Game Price Beat Promise

Game launched its Price Beat Promise in 1970 as part of its commitment to offering customers unbeatable prices on every item.

Essentially, the Price Beat Promise guarantees Game shoppers the absolute lowest price on any and every item that Game stocks, in-store and online – both before and for 21 days after purchase.

Making use of this savvy shopper’s dream policy is simple – you do not need to sign up or be part of a programme and it applies to products stocked at any local retailer, in-store or online.

Follow these simple steps and never pay more than you need to again:

How it works before purchase:

  • If you find a product stocked by Game cheaper elsewhere, you can bring in the valid leaflet to any of Game’s 108 stores across the country.
  • You are then able to purchase the item at the lower price, less a further 10% on the difference between prices.

How it works after purchase:

  • If you find a product you have purchased from Game cheaper elsewhere, within 21 days of your purchase, you can bring in the valid leaflet to any of Game’s 108 stores across the country, along with your till slip.
  • You are then eligible for a refund of the difference between the prices, plus a further 10% on the difference between prices.

How it works online

You can Price Beat online orders in one of the below ways:

  1. Click here to upload a screenshot of the competitor’s product and price, as well as the URL link from the competitor’s site. Put ‘Price Beat’ in the subject line and then give the order ID in the description if you’ve already bought the product.
  2. Send an email to [email protected]. Put ‘Price Beat’ in the subject line and upload screenshots of the competitor’s product and price with the URL link (Mention Game order ID if you have already purchased the product).
  3. Phone 0861 426 333. You will need to share screenshots of the product and the URL link over email. Mention the order ID if you’ve already purchased the item.

Buy Now, Pay Later with PayJust Now

The most recent payment option added – PayJustNow – offers customers the opportunity to spread the cost of their purchases across three months interest and fee free, while receiving the goods immediately.

The Game myStore Card

Customers must apply for this card and the application will need to be approved by RCS. They can then buy the items on credit and pay it off over installments as defined in their credit statement. The customer can take their items home immediately.

Makro and Builders Store Cards

A customer can also pay using their Makro and Builders store cards.

This will work exactly the same way as their Game myStore Card, and they can take their items home immediately.

All payment options are available in all 108 stores across the country.

This Black Friday, not only can customers look forward to convenient payment options, but the retailer will also open stores across the country from 00:00 – 20:00 on Friday, 25 November, giving shoppers extended time to get their hands on never-to-be repeated deals.
