From Tuesday all SA businesses with a COVID safe plan will have the ability to check customers in via a QR code system.
The SA government says the system will “enhance contact tracing” in the event someone test positive for COVID-19.
HOW IT WORKS FOR CUSTOMERS:
COVID SAfe Check-In is a new feature that has been added to the free mySA GOV app.
You can download the mySA GOV app using your smart phone. In the mySA GOV app, select the COVID SAfe Check-In tile when you arrive at a venue or business, and follow the prompts to scan their unique QR code and check in.
You are not required to login to use the COVID SAfe Check-In feature.
Download the app from Google Play or the App Store from the afternoon of Tuesday 1 December. Apple users will be able to sign in manually until the Apple version is updated and available on Tuesday afternoon.
If you do not have a compatible smart phone, a paper record will be available for you to provide your details.
When you first enter the COVID SAfe Check-In tile, you will be asked to fill in your details and mobile number. You will then get a text message with a unique code to enter in to the app. This is to verify your phone number. You will only have to do this once.
