How to Recover Lost E-pin After Payment

If you don’t receive your ePIN via SMS or lose it, simply text [UTMEPIN] or [DEPIN] to 55019 to have it resent to your phone.

Once you have your ePIN, take it to a JAMB-accredited center for registration for this year’s exam.

Participating banks must adhere to strict guidelines for processing JAMB candidates. They are required to collect the Profile Code from candidates’ phones and receive payments, vending ePINs exclusively via SMS—no calls or written records allowed.

Banks are authorized to facilitate POS payments when necessary and must provide candidates with evidence of payment. Crucially, ePINs should be issued electronically after payment and not handwritten.
