For voters

Vote with confidence. Buy tickets without crossing your fingers.

Every event on voteMe is one tap away — online from any phone, or via USSD from any handset for paid voting events, without internet or a smartphone. Payments run on Paystack, tickets are signed with a code that cannot be cloned, and your receipts are always a click away.

Why you can trust it

A vote or ticket that is actually yours, with receipts to prove it.

voteMe is the infrastructure serious events in Ghana are moving to. Here is what that means for you specifically as a voter or ticket buyer.

When you pay for a vote or a ticket on voteMe, the money goes through Paystack — the same payment infrastructure your bank app uses. Your card or MoMo details never touch our servers. You get a Paystack receipt in your email at the same time you get our confirmation, and the two references match.

Every paid vote produces a downloadable PDF receipt with the event name, the contestant, the number of votes, the amount paid, the currency, and the Paystack transaction reference. If an organiser ever claims a vote did not come through, you have the receipt. Free votes — election access-code votes and hot poll votes — produce a confirmation email with the same audit trail, minus the payment details.

Tickets are signed with a rotatable HMAC key — a cryptographic lock on each QR code — so the ticket someone photographed off your phone cannot walk through the gate a second time. Transfers are a deliberate action: you send the ticket to a friend, they verify their email, and both of you get a record of the handover.

Online

Open the event page. Tap Vote. You’re done.

Every event lives at voteme.live/the-event-name — and at the-event-name.voteme.live if the organiser enabled a subdomain. Both URLs go to the same live event.

Pick a category, pick a contestant, pick the number of votes, and tap Vote now. Paystack's checkout opens; you pay with MoMo, card, or bank transfer. The moment Paystack confirms, your vote is counted and appears on the live leaderboard.

For paid award-style events, you can buy as many votes as you want in a single session — there is no limit per voter. For election-style events, you enter the access code the organiser emailed you; each code is single-use. For free hot-vote polls, nothing is required at all — tap, count, done.

USSD — paid voting events only

No internet for paid events? Dial the short code.

USSD voting is available on paid award-style events. If the event you want to vote in is a paid voting event, the organiser will publish a USSD short code on the flyer and event page.

Dial the short code from any handset — Nokia, Samsung, iPhone, Android, it does not matter. You will be asked for the contestant's 4-letter code, how many votes you want, and then a standard MoMo PIN prompt appears on your network. Five screens total. Your vote lands on the same live leaderboard the online voters see.

USSD is not available for election-style voting or free hot votes. Those modes require either an access code delivered by email or no authentication at all — neither maps well to a USSD menu. Online is the path for those events.

If you see a 4-letter code like AMAZ or YOFI on a flyer, that is a contestant's short code. Enter it exactly as shown — it is case-insensitive but the letters matter.

Receipts and history

Find everything later — at /my-votes and /my-tickets.

You do not need an account on voteMe to vote or buy tickets. But your email gives you access to everything you have ever done on the platform.

Go to /my-votes or /my-tickets, enter your email and the 6-digit short code from your confirmation email. We show every vote and ticket associated with that address. Download the PDF receipts, resend a ticket to yourself if you lost it, or transfer one to a friend.

If you used USSD, the confirmation and short codes arrive by SMS and email too. The link we send works from any device, signed-in or not. Bookmark it right after your vote if you think you might need it later.

What else you get

The small things that add up.

Six quiet features that make the voter experience feel handled rather than hacky.

Signed receipts

Every paid vote gets a downloadable PDF receipt with the Paystack reference. Keep it — it is your audit trail if anything is disputed.

USSD for paid events

Paid voting events support USSD. Dial the event short code from any handset, enter the contestant's 4-letter code, and pay from MoMo. No smartphone, no app, no data bundle.

Signed QR tickets

Tickets carry a rotatable HMAC signature. A ticket someone photographed off your phone cannot pass the gate a second time. The short-code fallback works even when cameras fail.

Your privacy, by default

Organizers only see what their event's registration rules allow. Voter lists are not shared with contestants. Your phone number is hashed for dedupe — never displayed anywhere.

Real-time results

Leaderboards update the instant a vote confirms — no refresh, no waiting. For awards that reveal at the end, the numbers stay hidden until the organiser unlocks them.

Transfer and refund rights

Tickets are yours. Transfer to a friend if plans change. Request a refund inside the organiser's policy window. The audit trail keeps the history honest for both sides.
