NYSC Foundation Membership Portal

How can we help you?

A simple guide to joining the NYSC Foundation, making your membership payment, completing your registration and getting your membership ID card.

Simple from start to finish

Your membership journey

Start with your NYSC State Code. The portal will guide you through the remaining steps.

1
State Code Enter and confirm your NYSC State Code.
2
Payment Make your membership payment securely.
3
Registration Complete your details and create your password.
4
Dashboard Access your NYSCF membership account.
5
ID Card Add your passport photo and download your card.
Step 1

Begin with your State Code

Your NYSC State Code is used to identify the appropriate NYSC Foundation membership category for you.

Enter your State Code twice

The accepted formats are:

AA/YYB/NNNN  or  AA/YYB/NNNNN

For example:

BY/25A/1234

  • AA — State/FCT prefix
  • YY — Service year
  • A, B or C — Batch
  • 1234/12345 — Serial number
Aa

Uppercase or lowercase?

Either is fine. The portal recognises your State Code whether you type it in uppercase, lowercase or a combination of both.

For example, ab/25a/8181 and AB/25A/8181 are treated as the same State Code.

You don't need to choose your membership category. The portal determines the appropriate category automatically from your State Code.
Step 2

Make your membership payment

After your State Code is accepted, the portal displays your membership category and the amount you are required to pay.

Choose the payment method that works best for you

On the Paystack payment page, you may be offered options such as Debit/Card payment, Bank Transfer, Bank payment, USSD or other available Paystack channels.

Debit / Card Bank Transfer Bank Payment USSD Other available Paystack options

You may use any option Paystack makes available to you. NYSC Foundation does not prescribe any particular payment method.

If you choose Bank Transfer or another method that takes time to confirm: Allow the transaction to finish processing. Please do not rush to start another payment simply because confirmation is not immediate.

After completing the transfer in your banking app or bank page, return to the Paystack payment page and click the confirmation button shown there, such as “I have made payment”, “I've made the transfer” or any similar confirmation button displayed by Paystack.

Already paid? Please don't pay again.

If you have already made a successful membership payment, do not make another payment.

Go to the Member Login page and log in using your registered email address and password.

If your registration has not yet been completed, the portal will take you to the appropriate registration page so you can continue from where you stopped and complete your registration.

Having trouble after payment?

Here is what to do if the payment or registration process does not continue as expected.

1

Payment is taking longer than expected

Follow the instructions displayed by Paystack and allow the current payment process to finish. Some payment methods may require additional time for confirmation. Do not immediately start another payment.

2

You paid but registration was interrupted

Do not pay again. Return to the NYSCF portal and log in. If your registration is incomplete, the system will direct you to continue and conclude your registration.

3

You are not sure whether payment completed

Do not rush to make another payment. If you remain uncertain after allowing reasonable time for the payment to complete, contact NYSC Foundation Support for assistance.

!
Closed the browser after making payment? If your payment completed successfully, do not make another payment simply because the browser was closed. Return to the portal and log in. If your registration is incomplete, the system will take you back to the appropriate registration page so you can complete it.
Step 3

Complete your registration

After successful payment, complete your membership registration to create your NYSC Foundation account.

Confirm your information

Your registration is connected to the information provided during the payment process, including:

  • Full name
  • Email address
  • Telephone number
  • NYSC State Code
  • Your membership payment

Follow the instructions on the registration page and create your password to complete your membership account.

What happens when you finish?

After registration is successfully completed, your NYSC Foundation membership account is created.

The portal signs you in and takes you to your member dashboard.

Your membership payment has already been made. You do not need to make another payment when completing your registration.
