The EasyPay contact number is 0860 994 162, the EasyPay Everywhere Banking contact centre, which also blocks cards and takes fraud reports; email customercare@epe-online.co.za. To check your EasyPay balance on your cellphone, dial *120*3737# from your registered number and enter your card PIN. EasyPay Loans is on 0801 11 18 80, EasyPay Insurance on 0800 100 201 (toll-free) and the complaints line on 0860 995 308. The contact centre works Monday to Friday 07:00 to 21:00 and Saturday 08:00 to 13:00. EasyPay says it is rebranding to Lesaka: “Same EasyPay. New name.”

EasyPay’s two official websites

EasyPay runs two official web portals, and they serve different businesses: easypay.co.za for EasyPay Web Services (bill payments, prepaid electricity and traffic fines) and epe-online.co.za for EasyPay Everywhere banking, loans and insurance. Always verify a phone number, email or banking route on one of those two portals before acting on it. Third-party web directories are not proof that a number or route remains current.

EasyPay online banking and the balance check

EasyPay lists five ways to check your balance: at any EasyPay Everywhere branch, on Online banking, with “Balance Peek” in the EasyPay Everywhere Banking app, with the USSD cellphone banking code, or at any EasyPay ATM. Online banking runs through your account at epe-online.co.za, where you can also download statements, pay bills and manage beneficiaries.

Self-service channels EasyPay verifies are:

  • USSD banking and loans menu: dial *120*3737# on your mobile phone to check balances, block lost cards, or apply for and manage loans.
  • SMS loan assistance request: send an SMS to 49201 to request assistance with your EasyPay loan; an agent calls you back on the number you texted from.
  • Mobile app and online portal: download the EasyPay Everywhere Banking App or log in to your account at epe-online.co.za.

The EasyPay cellphone banking code *120*3737#

The EasyPay cellphone banking code is *120*3737#. You must first activate USSD banking with your fingerprint: at enrolment, at a branch, or at an EasyPay ATM with your card and registered phone, when a one-time PIN is sent. Once it is activated you are registered automatically: dial *120*3737# from your registered mobile number, enter your EasyPay Everywhere card PIN and follow the prompts. USSD banking uses airtime; the app uses data.

Safety warning: EasyPay will never ask for your PIN, card CVV, full online banking password, or One-Time Pins (OTPs) over WhatsApp or unsolicited calls.

EasyPay SASSA loans contact number

Call the EasyPay Loans contact centre on 0801 11 18 80, or SMS 49201 and an agent will contact you on the number you texted from. To apply, dial *120*3737*7# and follow the prompts; EasyPay’s contact page also says you can dial *120*3737# and select Option 2. For a loan, EasyPay can use a 3-month bank statement or, if you do not have one, your SASSA Letter of Grant Approval. To check your loan balance or settle a loan early, first confirm the outstanding amount with an agent on 0801 11 18 80, by SMS to 49201 or at a branch. Email proof of a loan payment to easypayloanqueries@lesakatech.com.
