247Online — fibre, LTE and 5G internet provider in Johannesburg, South Africa
247Online is a South African internet service provider founded in 2017, working from Randpark Ridge in Johannesburg and a second office on the Garden Route. It does not run a network of its own. Instead it resells and fulfils across several of the country’s established ISPs, which lets it put whichever of fibre, LTE, 5G or AirFibre actually reaches your address on the table. Connectivity is the whole business here; the company sells no voice service.
Key facts
| Who they are | An internet service provider founded in 2017, based in Johannesburg with a second office on the Garden Route. The company describes itself as an affiliate and reseller for established South African ISPs, and says it also manages end-to-end fulfilment for network providers |
| Connectivity | Four access types are named: Fibre to the Home, LTE, 5G and AirFibre. Because the company resells rather than builds, which of those you can actually get is decided by whichever underlying network reaches your street |
| Networks resold | The homepage carries the marks of Webafrica, Vox, RSAWEB, Supersonic and Telkom LTE. Those are the suppliers 247Online publicly associates itself with, so ask which of them is live at your address rather than assuming the whole list is |
| How they work | The company positions itself as a one-stop shop, with what it calls connectivity experts assessing your requirements and proposing a tailored option, and it states that it assists clients through the onboarding process. That help navigating an ISP’s paperwork is the practical service being sold on top of the line itself |
| Voice services | None. No VoIP, hosted PBX, SIP trunking or phone system appears anywhere on the site. If you need business telephony alongside the connection, that is a separate supplier |
| Head office | 61 Bosbok Road, Randpark Ridge, Johannesburg, 2194, Gauteng. A second office operates from York Street, George Central, George, in the Western Cape |
| Coverage | National in principle, since the company resells across several networks, but availability at any given address depends entirely on the underlying operator. No coverage map is published, so a direct address check is the only reliable answer |
| Not to be confused with | A separate business, Online Direct, operates from the same Randpark Ridge address. It has its own domain, its own phone number, its own Google profile and states it was founded in 2004, and unlike 247Online it does sell voice. Neither company publishes any relationship between them, so this listing asserts none — but check which of the two you are dealing with |
| ICASA licence | No ICASA reference is published, and as a reseller 247Online would not necessarily hold one. The licence normally sits with the underlying ISP carrying your line. Ask which licensed operator your service actually runs on if your procurement process records that |
| Pricing | Quote-based. No package prices, installation fees or contract terms are published. Since the line comes from an underlying ISP, expect the price to follow that operator’s rate for your area |
| Site currency | The website copyright line reads 2023. The business is contactable and its Google profile is live, so treat this as a site that has not been refreshed rather than a company that has stopped trading, and confirm the supplier list is current |

A broker for the line, not the owner of it
The useful thing about a reseller who works across several networks is that they have no reason to talk you into the wrong product. A company tied to one fibre operator will tell you fibre is the answer. 247Online can look at Webafrica, Vox, RSAWEB, Supersonic or Telkom LTE and propose whichever actually reaches you, and if nothing is trenched to your street it can reach for LTE, 5G or AirFibre instead. For an address on the edge of coverage, or for a business with sites in both Johannesburg and the Garden Route, that flexibility is worth more than a headline price. Set expectations properly, though. Nothing is published: no prices, no contract terms, no coverage map, and the site has not been refreshed since 2023, so the supplier list needs confirming. You are also one step further from the network than you would be buying direct, which matters when a fault needs escalating, so establish upfront who you phone at 22:00 and whether 247Online or the underlying ISP owns the fix. Compare the wider market in the fibre provider directory.
Who 247Online is a fit for
- Addresses where it is not obvious which network, if any, has coverage
- Businesses with sites in both Johannesburg and the southern Cape
- Buyers who would rather someone else handled the ISP application and onboarding

Lead with the exact street address, because with a reseller the first real question is which underlying networks are live there. Say what speed you need, whether a mobile or wireless fallback matters, and how quickly you need it installed. Ask two things in writing: which licensed operator will actually carry the line, and who owns fault escalation once it is running.

When was 247Online founded?
The company states it was founded in 2017 and is located in Johannesburg and on the Garden Route.
Does 247Online run its own network?
No. It describes itself as an affiliate and reseller for established South African ISPs, and says it also manages end-to-end fulfilment for network providers. The line you get comes from an underlying operator.
Which ISPs does 247Online resell?
Its homepage carries the marks of Webafrica, Vox, RSAWEB, Supersonic and Telkom LTE. Ask which of those is actually available at your address, as coverage decides the shortlist.

No. Nothing on the site offers VoIP, hosted PBX, SIP trunking or business telephony. It sells connectivity only, so voice would come from a separate supplier.
