How to Check If Your MK Party Membership Has Expired
Before renewing, you can easily verify your membership status on the MK Party’s official portal.
Step 1: Log In to the MK Party Membership Portal
Go to membership.mkparty.org.za and sign in using your registered Gmail account or the credentials you used when signing up.
Step 2: View Your Profile
Once logged in, open your Member Dashboard. Your membership status will appear on your profile — either “Active” or “Expired.”
Step 3: Check Expiry Date
Each MK membership is valid for 24 months (2 years) from the date of registration or last renewal. If the date has passed or your status shows as “Expired,” it’s time to renew your MK membership.
Tip: Don’t wait until an election period to renew. Keeping your membership active ensures your IEC-linked information and digital card remain valid year-round.
How to Renew Your MK Membership Online
The online renewal process is designed to be fast and secure, allowing members to update their records and make payments without visiting any office.
Here’s how to renew your MK membership in four simple steps:
Step 1: Log In
Visit the MK Party Membership Renewal Page and log in using your registered credentials.
Step 2: Confirm or Update Your Details
Check your personal information, such as your ID number, contact details, and address. Make sure everything is up to date before proceeding.
Step 3: Upload Proof of Payment
Renewal requires a R20 membership fee, valid for 24 months. Upload your proof of payment using your ID number as the payment reference.
Step 4: Download or Reissue Your Card
Once your payment is verified, your renewed MK Membership Card will be available for download in your profile dashboard.
That’s it! Your membership is active again, and your digital card will reflect your updated renewal date.
Payment Options for Renewing Your Membership
The MK offers flexible payment methods to make renewal convenient for all members across South Africa.
You can choose between:
- Online Payment Gateway: Make your R20 payment directly through the secure online system.
- Direct Deposit: Deposit R20 into the MK Party’s designated bank account. Be sure to use your South African ID number as the payment reference for quick approval.
Once payment is confirmed, your renewal will be processed automatically – usually within a few hours.
Note: Donations are optional. You can contribute more if you wish, but your R20 membership fee covers your renewal for the next two years.
