    Purpose of the Programme

    The Referral Appreciation Programme exists to encourage responsible, informed introductions to regulated debt services in South Africa.

    It is important to note that this programme:

    • •Does not reward advice, persuasion, or outcomes
    • •Does not influence assessments, recommendations, or legal processes
    • •Does not guarantee debt review, debt review removal, or any result

    All services are rendered independently by an NCR-registered debt counsellor, strictly in accordance with the National Credit Act and applicable NCR guidance.
