How to Login or Use Intellimali and the Contact Details for When You Need Help

Intellimali is a great option for funders or institutions who are responsible for sponsoring any student in a South African university. It does not just make allocation and management of funds easier for the funder or institution, but it also gives students easy access to the allocated fund and still keeps the funder or institution in control. With the use of the Intellimali card called Intellicard, students can purchase food, clothing, books, and most of their basic necessities.

Before you can start making use of your Intellicard after you have been registered as a fund recipient by a funder or institution, you will need to register or activate your card first. The process of doing this is pretty simple, and there are several methods of doing it which students can choose from, depending on their preference.

Intellimali Is A 51% Black Owned Private Company

In order to lift the burden of allocating funds appropriately to students by funders or institutions, Intellimali was created in 2009, as a private company that aims at facilitating payment and management of funds from funders or institutions to students. 51% of the company is owned by black people which puts the company at level two B-BBEE. Since its inception in 2009, they have continued to stay true with their goal and have been of immense benefit to funders, institutions, students, and merchant stores.

Student allocations are categorized into different sections like food, clothing, accommodation, books, cash, and tuition in order to help funders manage and control funds better. And with the Intellicard, students can purchase any of these things.

Another thing Intellimali takes pride in as an achievement is its reliability and 99.9% uptime. To ensure service continuity and security, they are server-based and not card-based and their web-based server hosting is supported by facilities like firewall security, data backup, generation service, and a backup battery for their card swipe machines.
