Frequently Asked Questions (Prepaid Specific)
- Can I use these for my main municipal connection? No, these are “sub-meters.” They are installed after your main municipal meter to manage consumption for tenants or specific sections of a building.
- How do tenants buy tokens? Our meters are compatible with most major vending systems, allowing tenants to buy tokens via EasyPay, On-Line stores, or mobile banking apps.
- Are the meters tamper-proof? Yes. Our meters include tamper-detection seals and software that can disable the meter if unauthorized access is attempted.
- Do you ship to remote areas? Yes, we offer nationwide delivery across South Africa, ensuring your project stays on schedule regardless of location.
