FAQs

Where can customers buy 1Voucher?

What denominations can customers buy?

Generally R1 – R4,000 per voucher at participating retailers and platforms. Note: PEP currently sells fixed denominations of R50, R70, R100, and R200. Customers can use the 1ForYou app to combine multiple vouchers into a single voucher before paying.

Where can 1Voucher be redeemed?

1Voucher can be used online and in stores for a wide range of categories: retail, groceries, healthcare, entertainment, betting, travel, connectivity, and more. Check the current partner list on the 1Voucher website.

Are there fees for 1Voucher payments?

Customers: buy and redeem at face value (no extra fees from Netcash). Merchants: pay a set fee per successful transaction to Netcash. Contact us for current rates or a custom quote based on volumes.

How do I enable 1Voucher on my Netcash account?

Ensure Pay Now (Payment Gateway) is active, then activate 1Voucher under your Netcash NetConnector settings. If needed, our team will help you test and go live.

How and when do I get paid for 1Voucher?

When a voucher is redeemed at checkout, Netcash credits your merchant account. You’ll see payment confirmation immediately, and settlement occurs within 24 hours or the next business day, supporting healthy cash flow.

How long does it take to receive 1Voucher payments into my Netcash account?

You’re notified instantly on redemption and Netcash settles within 24 hours or the next business day. All transactions appear in your statements for easy reconciliation.

Can customers use multiple vouchers?

The voucher value must cover the full purchase. Customers can combine vouchers in the 1ForYou app to create a single voucher with enough value. If a voucher exceeds the cart total, Netcash automatically issues a new voucher for the remaining balance to the customer.

How does a 1Voucher checkout work?

At checkout, the customer selects 1Voucher, enters their 16-digit PIN, and confirms payment. If successful, the order completes immediately and your Netcash account is credited. No banking details or cards are exposed.

Is 1Voucher secure for my business and customers?

Yes. 1Voucher is prepaid, so there are no chargebacks and significantly lower fraud exposure. Customers don’t share card data. Netcash processes redemptions within a PCI DSS Level 1 environment, with full audit trails and notifications.

What if a customer loses a voucher?

Treat vouchers like cash. Lost or shared voucher PINs may be used by others. Ask customers to store vouchers securely and contact 1Voucher support for assistance; recovery depends on their policies and proof of purchase.
