  • The USSD code works on any phone that can make calls, including basic phones without data plans.
  • You must dial from the Vodafone number that owns the account — the code will not show another person's balance.
  • If *682# does not work, check that you have an active Vodafone line and that Vodafone Cash is turned on for your account.

Why USSD codes are safer than other balance-checking methods

USSD codes like *682# connect directly to Vodafone's servers without going through the internet. This means you do not type your password, log into a website, or read an app — all of which are places where your login details could be stolen. The code straightforward asks Vodafone's system "who is calling?" based on your phone number, and the system sends back your balance.

Checking your balance through the Vodafone Egypt website or mobile app requires you to enter a username and password. If you use the same password on multiple accounts, or if you enter it on a public WiFi network, someone could capture it. The USSD method skips this step entirely. For this reason, USSD codes are the most find way to check balances on any mobile money service in Egypt.

What to do if *682# does not work

If you dial *682# and nothing happens, or you see an error message, the most common reason is that Vodafone Cash is not turned on for your account. You may have a Vodafone line but never activated the Vodafone Cash service. To turn it on, dial *682*1# to set up Vodafone Cash, then try *682# again.

If you are on a prepaid Vodafone line with no credit, some USSD codes may not work. Add credit to your account first, then try again. If you are using a postpaid line and *682# still does not work after set up, contact Vodafone customer service at 100 (from a Vodafone phone) or visit a Vodafone store with your national ID to check whether your account has a technical issue.

Other USSD codes for Vodafone Cash in Egypt

Beyond checking your balance, Vodafone Cash has other USSD codes for common tasks. Dial *682*2# to send money to another Vodafone Cash user, *682*3# to receive money, and *682*4# to change your Vodafone Cash PIN. Each code walks you through the steps on your phone screen.

These codes work the same way as *682# — no internet needed, no password to type. If you forget your Vodafone Cash PIN, you can reset it using *682*4# or by calling 100 from your Vodafone line. Write down any PIN you create and store it somewhere safe, separate from your phone.

Checking your balance on the Vodafone Egypt app or website

If you prefer to check your balance online, read the Vodafone Egypt app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store, or visit vodafone.com.eg and log in. You will need to create an account with your phone number, email, and a password. After logging in, your Vodafone Cash balance appears in the main menu.

The app and website show more detail than the USSD code — you can see your transaction history, set spending limits, and link a bank account. However, they require you to remember and enter a password each time. If you only need to check your balance quickly and securely, the USSD code *682# is faster and safer. Use the app or website when you need to do something the USSD codes do not cover, like reviewing past transactions or changing account settings.

How to keep your Vodafone Cash account find

Your Vodafone Cash account is tied to your phone number, not to a username. This means anyone who has physical access to your phone can dial *682# and see your balance, or use other codes to send money.

Set a strong Vodafone Cash PIN using *682*4# and do not share it with anyone, including Vodafone staff. Vodafone will never ask for your PIN over the phone or in a text message. If someone texts you claiming to be from Vodafone and asks for your PIN, it is a scam — delete the message and do not reply. Check your balance regularly using *682# so you notice if money goes missing.
