Tracking your National Social Security Fund NSSF contributions is essential for long term financial planning and ensuring your employer is remitting your deductions. In 2026 the NSSF has increased the upper and lower contribution limits meaning higher earners are now seeing larger portions of their salary directed toward their pension.
Monitoring these balances allows you to verify that your retirement savings are growing correctly. Here is how you can check your NSSF statement and contribution history in Kenya.
-
Using the NSSF Self Service Portal The most detailed way to view your contribution history is through the official NSSF Self Service portal. To use this service you must first register on the portal to create a username and password. Once logged in navigate to the Member Self Service links and select NSSF Contributions Statement. You can filter by year to see every monthly remittance made by your employer.
-
The NSSF Mobile App The NSSF Mobile app available on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store provides real time access to your account details. After downloading the app and creating a secure login you can view your total accumulated balance and a summary of your recent transactions. This is often the most convenient method for regular tracking as it offers a user friendly interface on your smartphone.
-
Checking via USSD Code For those who prefer a quick check without using data or a computer the NSSF provides a USSD service. By dialing the designated NSSF USSD code for Kenya you can follow the prompts to register or login using your NSSF number and ID. Once authenticated you can request a mini statement or check your current balance directly from your mobile handset.
-
Visiting an NSSF Branch or Huduma Centre If you experience technical issues with the digital platforms you can always visit any NSSF branch or an NSSF desk at a Huduma Centre. By presenting your National ID card and NSSF number a customer service officer can print a full contribution statement for you. This physical document is often required for certain official applications or when correcting discrepancies in your records.
Why Regular Tracking Matters in 2026 With the implementation of the new NSSF Act contribution tiers have become more complex. For instance Tier I and Tier II contributions now vary depending on your gross income. Regular tracking ensures that your employer is using the correct percentages and that your funds are being credited to your account promptly. If you notice a missing month or an incorrect amount you can address the issue immediately with your HR department.
