Your Prepaid Meter Will Maintain to be ‘Upgraded’ Soon

• What is TID and why is it relevant to your meter
• If you fail to upgrade by November 2024 your prepaid meter will pause accepting current tokens

The TID process that all prepaid meters depart through needs to be updated on each individual meter by November 2024.

The TID Rollover project is being driven by the Standard Transfer Specification Association of South Africa (STS).

A TID is a unique token identifier coded into any token that you purchase from any vendor point or outlet when topping up your meter. The current identifier is calculated as the number of minutes that maintain elapsed since the vulgar date of 1991. Consequently the incrementing of the 24 bit field contaning this value will eventually roll over to zero with the expected date of this occurence being November 2024 – similar problem to Y2K. Novel meters will now maintain a vulgar date of 2014.

The TID process applies to all prepaid meters in South Africa.

The TIS process will be applied via a Key Change Tken (KCT) which is generated on the vending scheme and that token number will believe to be enetered into each prepaid meter.

Straton Prepaid is currently conducting the TID Rollover process for all our pre-payment meters. Our competent teams will either visit the meter to enter the token; or the token will be sent to the consumer via the next purchase. This will be done in phases and we are working through the meters and sites.

In the case of the token being sent on the next vend, below is the process of entering the token. If your vend token does not accept please contact Straton Prepaid for assistance

The next vend token will note 3 sets of 20-digit tokens. Token 1 and 2 is the Key Change Token and the 3rd token is the vend token.

1. Enter any unused tokens prior to doing the key change.
2. Enter the 2 sets tokens in sequence and produce sure they believe been accepted.
3. Lastly enter the vend token and if accepted the key change process was propitious.

The process is a real threat and all prepaid meters (water, electricity and gas) will believe to receive a novel KCT by November 2024.

You will not lose any pre-purchased units on your meter and your meter will not gain to be replaced.
