The aCoin Voucher is another prepaid payment solution that you can use to pay for a variety of products and services online - even if you only use cash. But not just cash - it can be purchased online, too, using an EFT, Scode, and Ozow.
In this article, we’ll try to shed some light on what aCoin is, where it can be purchased, and how it can be used online.
Introduction to aCoin Vouchers
aCoin Voucher is another prepaid payment solution available in South Africa. Unfortunately, there’s not much information available about aCoin. The service is run by Endor Technology (Pty) Ltd, based in Gauteng, incorporated in 2020.
Like its competitors, it offers a simple way to transact at retailers and online. Being a newcomer, it lacks the widespread acceptance of its competitors, but it’s still an up-and-coming brand worth keeping an eye on.
How to Buy aCoin Vouchers?
Unfortunately, the aCoin website doesn’t have a list of partners like its competitors. What it has, in turn, is a means of buying the voucher directly online. To purchase an aCoin voucher:
Head over to the aCoin website at acoin.co.za.
Select “Buy voucher”
Choose your payment method
Ozow
Through ABSA, FNB, Nedbank, and Standard Bank ATMs
EFT through ABSA, FNB, Nedbank, and Standard Bank accounts
SCode
Follow the on-screen instructions
You can buy aCoin Vouchers with values between R5 and R5,000. For amounts over R100, in turn, you’ll have to register and verify your account.
How Do You Verify Your aCoin Account?
To verify your aCoin account, you need to:
Head over to the aCoin website
Select “Register”
Select the arrow pointing down next to your phone number
Select “Verification” from the dropdown
Select “Start Verification”
Enter your ID number
Consent to the verification
Submit your proof of identity and proof of address when prompted
Non-verified accounts can only purchase vouchers worth R100 per month.
How to Redeem an aCoin Voucher?
You can redeem an aCoin Voucher much like you would redeem any other. When you buy it, you receive a 16-digit PIN number. You’ll have to paste or type in the voucher code at the merchant’s website (or the online casino) to use it.
As usual, using your aCoin Voucher will not cost you a thing. You can redeem the entire amount you paid for.
How to Use aCoin Voucher for Online Betting and Gaming
As we mentioned before, aCoin is a relative newcomer to the market. This means that it is not as widely supported as its competitors. We only found one South African mobile casino that accepts aCoin Voucher deposits:
To deposit using aCoin, you have to:
Log into your account
Access the Cashier section of the site
From the available payment methods, choose aCoin
Enter the desired amount, then paste or type in the 16-digit voucher code
Redeem
The amount of your voucher will show up in your bankroll instantly. Note that you won’t be able to redeem your aCoin voucher partially, only the entire amount. Also, most casinos require you to play through the entire amount deposited using a voucher before you can initiate a withdrawal.
Security and Reliability
aCoin claims to be a secure and reliable payment method - and so far, their track record seems very good. You only need to be careful about not losing the receipt with your PIN or not disclosing it to third parties. Other than that, prepaid vouchers are as secure as they can be.
Troubleshooting
Your voucher code may sometimes be declined when you try to redeem it. In this case, you should double-check if you typed the PIN code correctly. If you still can’t redeem it, you should contact the merchant, and they will handle the matter from now on.
If you need to contact aCoin, you can contact the company by visiting its website (https://acoin.co.za/) and tapping “Support”. This will open a live chat window where you can ask any question not covered in the FAQ.
