How It Works

The Token System

Simple. Automatic. No debt.

Our prepaid meter system gives tenants full control of their utility usage while protecting landlords from non-payment. Here is how it works from start to finish.

  1. 01

    Go to a retailer

    The tenant visits a participating shop — such as Sasol, Engine, Pick n Pay, SPAR, or Woolworths — and requests a prepaid token.

  2. 02

    Provide your meter number

    The tenant provides their unique meter number at the counter. This number is tied specifically to their unit's meter.

  3. 03

    Token is generated via UNIPIN

    A request is sent to UNIPIN, who process the payment and return a unique token for the amount purchased.

  4. 04

    Enter the token into the meter

    The tenant punches the token into their meter using the keypad. The meter is updated with the purchased units of electricity or water.

  5. 05

    Monthly transfer to the landlord

    Consolidated funds are transferred to the property owner's account by the 7th of each month — automatically, with no manual collection required.
