  6. Enter the Personal Identification Number (PIN) on your e-PIN
  7. Click Submit and wait for the results window to come up

How to Buy WAEC Result Checker PIN

WAEC has already given each candidate its result checker PIN and Serial Number. You can check the Smart Identity Card used during the conduct of the examination to check for your Result Checker PIN and Serial Number.

The cost of a WAEC result checker PIN is N3,654.82. Candidates interested in purchasing the e-PIN/result checker can do that on the council’s Request Management System portal. Follow the procedure below to buy WAEC result checker PIN:

How to Check WAEC Results offline Via SMS
