28 June 2019
Trace Mobile has announced that users will now be able to RICA their sim cards through the Trace app.
Currently, Trace Mobile is the only network in South Africa to offer data and airtime with no expiry date as well as exclusive Afro-urban content and more.
In order to apply for a simcard and to RICA it, users will need to download the Trace app, upload or take a picture of your ID and proof of residence, take/upload an ID-style selfie, fill in their details and select any Clicks collection point to collect the SIM card at the Pargo counter in 600 Clicks stores across South Africa.
The company added that If you decide to collect your Trace Mobile sim from a Clicks store within 48 hours, you get 200MB of free data.
This innovative ID and profile facial recognition to process RICA applications through the app, is compliant with the POPI and RICA acts to protect subscribers’ personal information.
The app is available to download for Android and iOS.
