🎓 Why South African students use TurnitinMy
Students in South Africa often have no way to run a Turnitin check before the final submission — the university runs it once, and a failed report can cost a semester. TurnitinMy gives South African students the same Turnitin report for less than the price of a printout, paid by card or USDT so it works even when international card payments are difficult.
📏 Similarity limits at universities in South Africa

What similarity score do universities in South Africa accept?

Is the report the real Turnitin report?
Yes — the original Turnitin PDF: overall similarity percentage, source list and colour-highlighted text, the same report your lecturer sees. We run it in No Repository mode, so your file is not stored and will not match against itself when your university checks it later.
Can you check the AI-writing percentage too?
Yes. The AI + Plagiarism package (RM7.99, ≈ R33.6) adds Turnitin's AI writing detection score to the similarity report, in a single PDF.
