Questions

Good to know.

Can't find your answer? Call 012 023 1108 or WhatsApp 071 948 0612.

Do your meters replace my municipal or Eskom meter?
No. Flowsort meters are sub-meters. They sit after your municipal or Eskom supply and let you bill each tenant for exactly what they use.
Is installation included in the meter price?
Yes. Installation by a qualified installer who issues a Certificate of Compliance is included in the cost of a Flowsort meter.
Where do tenants buy tokens?
At selected retail outlets and ATMs, or directly from Flowsort. A 10% service fee (excl. VAT) applies to retail and ATM purchases, and 7% (excl. VAT) to purchases made directly with us.
When do I receive my tenants' payments?
We reimburse landlords for tenant token purchases on or before the 7th of the month after purchase.
Who qualifies for a Refund Advance?
Flowsort prepaid meter customers with a confirmed refund pending on their meter account. Apply online and we verify the refund before paying out.
