        Go to www.computicket.com to buy a voucher.

        The virtual voucher can only be used in-store (not online) by entering the unique voucher number into the pin pad at check out.

        Vouchers can only be redeemed once, with no change given if the purchase value is less than the voucher value. The remaining value will be loaded onto a gift card in store.

        Vouchers cannot be exchanged for cash and cannot be redeemed at MediRite pharmacies or at Money Market counters.

        Vouchers are valid for three years.

 

In addition to virtual vouchers, customers can also send money to recipients without bank accounts at the Money Market counters located in selected Shoprite, Checkers and Usave stores.
