The National Social Security Fund (NSSF) has come out to provide members with a simple guide on how they can check and keep track of their retirement savings deducted from their monthly salaries, while urging them to make it a regular habit.

In a notice shared on its official social media platforms on Friday, July 17, 2026, the Fund encouraged members to frequently monitor their contribution statements to stay informed about the status of their retirement savings and verify that their monthly contributions have been remitted.

The steps

NSSF noted that members can conveniently access their contribution statements through its USSD platform by dialling *303#, selecting Member Services, entering their National ID number, keying in their NSSF PIN, and then selecting Contributions Information to view their savings.

The Fund emphasized that regularly checking contribution statements enables members to confirm the accuracy of their records, identify any missing or delayed remittances, and effectively plan for their financial future after retirement.

NSSF’s asset base

This comes days after The National Social Security Fund (NSSF) announced that its asset base has grown to approximately KSh 715 billion as of March 30, 2026 (unaudited), attributing the growth to increased compliance by employers and workers, as well as strengthened retirement savings across the country.

In a public statement issued on its X account on Friday, June 05, 2026, the Fund said the milestone reflects growing trust in the national pension system and renewed commitment by Kenyan workers to secure their future through structured savings.

“As at 30th March 2026, the Fund had grown to approximately Ksh.715 billion (unaudited), reflecting the trust and commitment of Kenyan employers and workers in fighting old-age poverty. This means better retirement benefits for workers as Kenya strives to catch up with its peers in the region, having trailed in saving for retirement in the East Africa region,” from the statement.

NSSF emphasized that social security remains a constitutional right under Article 43(1)(e) of the Constitution of Kenya, which guarantees every worker protection in retirement and obligates the State to progressively expand access to social protection.
