They say necessity is the mother of invention. That must have been exactly what went through the mind of local online entrepreneur Anton van der Merwe on the day he created Online Company South Africa and solved one of the most common problems that licensed drivers are faced with. 

With one quick visit to onlinecompanysa.co.za, you can book an appointment to renew your driver's license. You will still have to go to your nearest traffic department office to collect the card, but you will no longer have to queue. Best of all, the process is cost-effective. 

Booking the appointment and collecting your new card in person is free - you would only have to pay the stipulated renewal fee at your selected traffic department office. 

Booking through Online Company South Africa also allows you to choose a delivery option. Your card can reach you if you live as far as Rustenburg at an additional delivery fee of R204,34.

For more information on how the system works, you can listen to the conversation below.
