Police caution motorists against traffic fine payment fraud under Traffitech-GH

The Ghana Police Service has warned motorists against falling victim to fraudsters while attempting to pay traffic fines using the new Traffitech-GH automated traffic law enforcement system, which officially began on November 1, 2026. The system aims to automate enforcement of road traffic laws and improve compliance among motorists.

According to the Ghana Police Service, motorists should verify traffic violation notifications to ensure they come from the official sender ID, GPS-MTTD, as genuine notices will not be sent from ordinary mobile phone numbers. Recipients are advised to open their Electronic Notice of Violation (ENV) or ticket to check the vehicle photograph and registration number, as well as the location, date, and time of the alleged offense.

They should also watch the accompanying video, if available. To pay fines, motorists can use the National Investment Bank (NIB) payment portal (https://traffitech-ghpay.nib.com.gh), select the 'Make Payment' option, enter the ticket number, and follow the instructions. Alternatively, they can dial *710*0# and follow the prompts using their ticket numbers.

The Police Service urges motorists to avoid paying fines into personal mobile money numbers or through unofficial accounts and to remain vigilant against fraudulent payment requests. Assistance can be sought by contacting the Police Service at 059 692 2402.
