Online Recharge Methods
The very first method to recharge STC online is by using a bank account. You can recharge STC from NCB, Samba, Riyadh Bank, Sabb, and Alrajhi Bank. I am using the NCB bank portal. However, the process is almost similar to using other bank accounts.

By using this transaction channel, you can recharge any STC Sawa Number. Ok, let’s dig out the process of STC recharge from NCB bank.

How To Extend STC Sim Validity
Whenever you recharge Sawa STC sim, the sim validity extends itself. On a recharge of 15 Riyals, the validity increases for 90 days. If you don’t use the sim and its validity expires, then the balance gets zero. After that, you have 3 months to recharge it again.
If you don’t recharge it within 90 days, then STC terminates your connection. In that case, you will have to buy a new sim.
