How to Claim a Voucher

Step-by-step guide to claiming a voucher code into your wallet.

Before You Start

To claim a voucher you need a FinWallet account and a valid voucher code. Voucher codes are typically provided by the organisation running the rewards programme — via SMS, email, or in-app notification.

Vouchers are programme-specific. A voucher issued for one programme (e.g. FinWallet Internal ZAR) can only be claimed into a wallet that belongs to the same programme. If you receive an error, check that the voucher matches your wallet's programme.

How to Claim a Voucher

  1. Open the FinWallet app and log in to your account.
  2. Navigate to Vouchers in the main menu.
  3. Tap Claim Voucher and enter your voucher code exactly as received — codes are case-sensitive.
  4. Select the wallet you want to credit (if you have more than one).
  5. Tap Confirm. The denomination is credited to your wallet instantly.
  6. You'll receive a confirmation and your new balance will be visible immediately.

What Happens Next

Once claimed, the voucher moves to a Claimed state and is locked to your wallet. The balance appears immediately and a transaction record is added to your history.

Common Claiming Errors

  • "Voucher not found" — check for typos; codes are case-sensitive
  • "Voucher already claimed" — the code has already been used; contact support if you believe this is an error
  • "Voucher expired" — the code has passed its expiry date and can no longer be claimed
  • "Wrong programme" — the voucher belongs to a different programme; check which wallet it should go into

See the Voucher Problems article for detailed troubleshooting.

Tip: Vouchers have an expiry date. Claim them promptly — expired vouchers cannot be reinstated.
