How to buy and redeem FRiENDi gift cards

What a FRiENDi gift card actually does

FRiENDi is a mobile brand in the Gulf region. Its vouchers add credit to a prepaid line without a bank card or a trip to a corner shop. You buy a code from us, get it by email, then load it onto your number through the carrier's own recharge process. The credit shows up on your balance and you can use it for calls, SMS, or data depending on your plan.

I have seen people confuse these vouchers with app store gift cards. They are not that. A FRiENDi voucher is strictly airtime credit for a FRiENDi mobile account. So before you buy anything, make sure the number you are topping up is actually on the FRiENDi network in Saudi Arabia or Oman.

Denominations and approximate prices

We stock vouchers in two currencies, OMR for Oman and SAR for Saudi Arabia. Every price below is approximate because exchange rates shift slightly over time. The amount of credit you receive matches the face value of the voucher, not the USD price you pay.

• OMR 0.5 voucher, about 1 USD
• OMR 1 voucher, about 3 USD
• OMR 3 voucher, about 8 USD
• OMR 5 voucher, about 14 USD
• SAR 15 voucher, about 4 USD
• SAR 20 voucher, about 5 USD
• SAR 30 voucher, about 8 USD
• SAR 50 voucher, about 13 USD

Pick the currency that matches the country where your SIM is registered. An OMR voucher will not work on a Saudi number, and a SAR voucher will not work on an Omani number. This is the single most common mistake I see customers make.

How to buy a FRiENDi voucher from us

The purchase takes under two minutes if you already know which denomination you want. You do not need an account on our store to check out, though having one lets you track your orders and revisit old codes if you lose the email.

1. Open the FRiENDi gift card page on BlinkCodes and select the denomination that matches your SIM's country.
2. Choose the quantity you need, then click the checkout button to move to payment.
3. Enter your email address carefully, because this is where the voucher code will be delivered.
4. Complete payment using your preferred method and wait for the confirmation page to load.
5. Check your inbox for an email from us containing the voucher code and a short summary of your order.

If the email does not arrive within a few minutes, look in your spam folder before reaching out. When you contact support, use support@blinkcodes.com and include your order number so we can find the transaction quickly.

How to redeem the code on your phone

Redemption happens on the FRiENDi network, not on our site. We only deliver the code. The exact USSD string or method can vary by country, so the steps below cover the general approach that works for most prepaid FRiENDi users in Saudi Arabia and Oman.

1. Open your phone's dialer and enter the recharge code provided in your email, typically starting with a star and ending with a hash.
2. Press call and wait for the network to process the request.
3. Read the confirmation message that appears on screen, which should state the new balance added to your account.
4. If the code is rejected, double-check that you typed every digit correctly and that the voucher currency matches your SIM's country.

Some users prefer to redeem through the carrier's app or website instead of USSD. That works too, as long as the platform accepts voucher codes for prepaid top-ups. The result is the same. Credit lands on your line and becomes available immediately.

Common issues and what to do

A voucher code that returns an error is almost always one of three things. The code was entered incorrectly, the voucher currency does not match the SIM country, or the SIM itself is not on the FRiENDi network. Check all three before assuming the code is faulty.

Codes do not expire quickly, but they do expire eventually, so redeeming within a reasonable window after purchase is a good habit. If you buy a voucher today and try to use it six months later, there is a real chance the carrier will reject it.

For any problem that is clearly on our side, such as a code that never arrived or an email that went to the wrong address, contact us at support@blinkcodes.com with your order number and we will sort it out. We are an independent reseller and do not have a direct relationship with the carrier, which means we cannot fix network-side issues. But we can make sure the code you paid for reaches you and is valid.
