How to Upgrade to GOtv Max
Upgrading to GOtv Max can be done via the GOtv self-service portal, the myGOtv app, or USSD code *423#. All methods require the IUC number found on the red sticker on the underside of the decoder.
On the self-service portal, users sign in with their registered mobile number and 10-digit IUC code, select Build a Package, choose GOtv Max, and pay via M-Pesa or another method. The switch takes about 10 minutes. On the myGOtv app, users sign in and select GOtv Max from the package list, then pay via M-Pesa or card. For USSD, dial *423# from the registered SIM, select Change Package, enter the IUC number, and follow the prompts.
Troubleshooting and Support
If the package does not update after payment, wait at least 10 minutes and restart the decoder. If a wrong IUC number is entered, double-check the red sticker—the IUC is 10 digits. If the USSD code fails, ensure you are using the SIM registered to the GOtv account. If payment is debited but the subscription is not activated, note that paying alone does not upgrade the subscription; the change must be completed through the portal, app, or USSD.
GOtv Kenya customer support is available at +254 711 066 555 or mchoice@ke.multichoice.com. The official website is gotvafrica.com, the self-service portal is selfservice.gotvafrica.com, and the M-Pesa paybill number is 423655 with the IUC number as the account number.
