HOW TO VEND DIRECLTY VIA NATIONAL PREPAID METERS:
-
Load "National Prepaid Meters" as a beneficiary on your banking site only if you bank with Absa, Standard Bank, FNB, Nedbank or Capitec.
-
Do an EFT for the amount you wish to spend on water/electricity (minimum R20)(service fee of 9.9% plus vat is included in transactions).
-
ONLY USE the 11 or 13 digit meter number as the reference. NO spaces/gaps/words.
The token will be sent to you via SMS to the cell phone number you entered on the submission form.
PLEASE TAKE NOTE:
This vend direct system is only active after 24 hours of the installation of the meter.
If you use an incorrect reference number or transact with an amount less than R20, your token will not be processed and there is NO refund. If you do not receive the token via SMS after 10 minutes, turn your phone off and on again to reboot.
