New cash card launched for Moroccan social security claimants
2006-04-26
As part of the process to simplify access to social security benefits, a new cash card is being distributed up by the department in partnership with Barid Al Maghrib.
By Hassan Benmehdi for Magharebia in Casablanca – 26/04/06
![]() [File] The card will eliminate the need for Moroccan pensioners to queue at the post office counter. |
Barid Al Maghrib and the Moroccan Social Security Department (CNSS) signed an agreement on 20 April that will establish a cash card payment procedure to allow CNSS benefits to be paid to claimants who do not have bank accounts. The new product, which will be launched in June, will allow card holders to access funds through the various services run by the CNSS.
The new card, under the Visa label, will also serve as a debit card for withdrawals from all automatic teller machines run by Barid Al Maghrib and banks affiliated with the Centre Monétique Interbancaire and for electronic payment for goods at retail outlets.
Saïd Ahmidouche, director general of the CNSS, said that this partnership will strengthen ties between the two institutions, which are firmly committed to a global modernisation process to benefit their customers and users.
Anas Alami, director general of Barid Al Maghrib, expressed hope a similar process can contribute to the successful implementation of compulsory health insurance.
Adding that the launch of the card does not contribute to profit-making, he was careful to explain that the project has a social dimension that will benefit most of the Moroccan population now. Alami feels the cards will make the electronic payments available to all Moroccans without any distinction. Barid Al Maghrib has promised to ensure a 95 per cent availability rate across its automatic teller network.
The card will bear the logos of the CNSS and Barid Al Maghrib and be valid for a period of three years at a price of 20 dirhams annually. Owners will thus have easy access to payments made by the CNSS with the simple-to-use card.
Created in 1961, the CNSS manages all social security payments for employed individuals. Currently, it covers 163,026 affiliated companies, 1,757,847 contributing workers and 300,501 pensioners.
Barid Al Maghrib is a multiple service business with international coverage. Set up in 1998, it provides messaging, postal and financial services.

Thank you for your hard work. We ask you to intervene so that workers benefit from 26 days in a month, because the entrepreneurs don't meet their obligations. As to medical coverage, why doesn't the insured take advantage of it...? Thank you- I hope there will be an advertising campaign so that everyone knows his obligations and rights. Thank you...

I have been living in Italy for 10 years. I have a son who has Italian citizenship. After hard efforts to get my retirement in this country and after accepting my application, they asked me to bring a certificate from the Social Security Fund in Morocco proving that I am not a pensioner in Morocco or that I don't benefit from the social security in Morocco. I was told in Oujda at the Social Security Office that this paper cannot be issued because you aren't registered with us. If this is so, it is stupid not to grant me this certificate. Is there a solution to this Moroccan problem?born on 01/01/1925.

hassan Posted 2009-02-26
I hope that the administration finds a solution to the problem which I tired of. It is allocations of children. It is not logical that we receive them at the end of the month by the post officer after we used to receive them with the wage in our account. We want to go forward not go backward.

This was three months ago. How can I confirm the sincerity of his words? Please don't neglect my request because it is very important and I have a family to take care of. Thank you.

حميد Posted 2009-04-30
In the name of God the most gracious the most merciful. I am 64. I stopped work four years ago. The number of days then was 2096. In order to complete the necessary number of days to benefit from pension, 3240. therefore I began to pay about 1000 dirhams to CNSS. I receive a form every three months to pay the required amount for CNSS to cover 78 days which will be added to my balance, 26 days for every month. During these days, I received the paper for the months of January-February-March 2009. By adding the days of these months, 78 days, my balance will be 3214 days, which means one month after I have completed the legal number which is 3240. The problem is, am I entitled to submit the pension file this month, May, as April is over which granted me 26 additional remaining days or will I have to wait for the month of July when I will receive receive the statement for the months of April-May-June? Please explain this issue or provide me the email of CNSS. Thank you.

After greetings. Thanks to the site. I am a Moroccan citizen, married and father of two. I am 36. I was residing in Tunisia for 8 years. I was affiliated to the Social Security Fund in Tunisia as a TV and vehicle radio repair technician for over 5 years. I used to receive all my rights. When I came back definitively in 2006, I went to the Moroccan social security fund in Agadir but it provided no help about transferring my affiliation to Morocco. I presently do the same job in fez and I am still deprived of social and health coverage. Moreover, health coverage offered by Barid Al Maghreb is unaffordable for those who do independent jobs like me. So please inform us about this topic with my thanks.
