PROXY STATEMENT
_______________

     We are furnishing this proxy statement in connection with the solicitation by our board of directors of proxies for use at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held at President Place, 6th Floor, Cnr. Jan Smuts Avenue and Bolton Road, Rosebank, Johannesburg, South Africa on November 19, 2014 at 16h00, local time (09h00 Eastern Time). Our annual report on Form 10-K and our proxy materials were first mailed on or about October 10, 2014.

VOTING RIGHTS AND PROCEDURES

     Shareholders who owned our common stock at the close of business on October 3, 2014, the record date, may attend and vote at the annual meeting. Each share is entitled to one vote. There were 46,475,623 shares of common stock outstanding on the record date.

     A majority of the total number of outstanding shares of common stock, present either in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the annual meeting. Shareholders who are present at the annual meeting in person or by proxy and who abstain, and proxies relating to shares held by a bank or broker on your behalf (that is, in “street name”), that are not voted (referred to as “broker non-votes”) will be treated as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present. In the event that there are not sufficient votes to approve any proposal at the annual meeting, the annual meeting may be adjourned in order to permit the further solicitation of proxies. The inspector of election appointed for the annual meeting will tabulate all votes and will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes.

     The following describes how you may vote on each proposal and the votes required for approval of each proposal:

     If you provide your voting instructions on your proxy, your shares will be voted as you instruct, and according to the best judgment of the persons named in the proxy if a proposal comes up for a vote at the annual meeting that is not on the proxy.

2

     If you do not indicate a specific choice on a proxy that you sign and submit, your shares will be voted:

     If your shares are held in “street name,” and you do not instruct the bank or broker as to how to vote your shares on Proposals 1 or 3, the bank or broker may not exercise discretion to vote for or against those proposals. This would be a “broker non-vote” and these shares will not be counted as having been voted on the applicable proposal. With respect to Proposal 2, the bank or broker may exercise its discretion to vote for or against that proposal in the absence of your instruction. Please instruct your bank or broker so your vote can be counted.

The Board of Directors recommends:

Revocability of Proxies

     You may revoke your proxy at any time prior to exercise of the proxy by delivering a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy with a later date by mail to our corporate secretary at Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc., PO Box 2424, Parklands 2121, Johannesburg, South Africa, or by attending the meeting and voting in person. If you hold shares through a bank or brokerage firm, you must contact that firm to revoke any prior voting instructions.

Special Instructions to South African Shareholders

     We are required to comply with certain South African regulations related to circulation and tabulation of proxies issued to our South African shareholders. The proxy form marked “Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc. Proxy for Shareholders Registered on South African Branch Register” must be used by South African shareholders. The South African proxy must be lodged, posted or faxed to Link Market so as to reach them by 16:00 on November 14, 2014. South African shareholders that have already dematerialized their shares through a CSDP or broker, other than with own-name registration, should not complete the South African proxy. Instead they should provide their CSDP or broker with their voting instructions, or alternatively, they should inform their CSDP or broker of their intention to attend the annual meeting in order for their CSDP or broker to be able to issue them with the necessary authorization to enable them to attend such meeting. South African shareholders that hold their shares in certificated form or dematerialized own-name registration should complete the South African proxy and return it to Link Market.

Solicitation

     We will bear the entire cost of the solicitation, including the preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of this proxy statement, including the proxy card and any additional solicitation materials furnished to our shareholders. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding shares in their names that are beneficially owned by others so that they may forward this solicitation material to such beneficial owners. We may reimburse these persons for their reasonable expenses in forwarding solicitation materials to beneficial owners. The original solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by a solicitation by personal contacts, telephone, facsimile, electronic mail or any other means by our directors, officers or employees. No additional compensation will be paid to our directors, officers or employees for performing these services. Except as described above, we do not presently intend to solicit proxies other than by mail.

PROPOSALS TO BE VOTED ON AT THE ANNUAL MEETING

PROPOSAL NO. 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

     The terms of office of each of our current directors will expire at the annual meeting. The Board has determined to nominate for re-election each of our current directors (see “Information Regarding the Nominees” for information on all directors) for a one-year term.

      The persons named in the enclosed proxy intend to vote properly executed and returned proxies FOR the election of all nominees proposed by the Board unless authority to vote is withheld. In the event that any nominee is unable or unwilling to serve, the persons named in the proxy will vote for such substitute nominee or nominees as they, in their discretion, shall determine. The Board has no reason to believe that any nominee named herein will be unable or unwilling to serve.

     The Board recommends that you vote FOR election of each of the director nominees.

PROPOSAL NO. 2: RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

     The Audit Committee of our Board has proposed that Deloitte be selected to serve as independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015. A representative of Deloitte is expected to be present at the annual meeting. Such representative will have an opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so and is expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders. Deloitte currently serves as our independent registered public accounting firm.

     We are asking our shareholders to ratify the selection of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015. Although ratification is not required by our by-laws or otherwise, the Board is submitting the selection of Deloitte to our shareholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. In the event our shareholders fail to ratify the appointment, the Audit Committee may reconsider this selection. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may select a different registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in our best interests and the best interests of our shareholders.

     The Board recommends a vote FOR ratification of the selection of Deloitte.

6

PROPOSAL NO. 3: AN ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

     We are providing you with the opportunity to vote to approve, on an advisory, non-binding basis, the compensation of our executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table under “Executive Compensation,” whom we refer to as our “named executive officers” or NEOs. This proposal, which is commonly referred to as “say on pay,” is required by Section 14A to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or Exchange Act.

     The philosophy of our executive compensation program is to link compensation to the achievement of our key strategic and financial goals. Therefore, we reward our executives for their contributions to our annual and long-term performance by tying a significant portion of their total compensation to key drivers of increased shareholder value. At the same time, we believe our program does not encourage excessive risk-taking by management. The “Executive Compensation” section of this proxy statement beginning on page 13, including the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” describes in detail our executive compensation program and the decisions made by the Board’s Remuneration Committee with respect to our fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.

     The Board is asking shareholders to cast a non-binding advisory vote on the following resolution:

     “Resolved, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to the disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussions, is approved on a non-binding advisory basis.”

     Because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding upon the Board or the Remuneration Committee. However, the Board and the Remuneration Committee value the opinions expressed by our shareholders and will consider the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation decisions.

     The Board recommends a vote FOR approval of the compensation of our named executive officers.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

MEETINGS OF THE BOARD AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

     Our Board typically holds a regular meeting once every quarter and holds special meetings when necessary. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, our Board held a total of five meetings. All of the directors who served during our 2014 fiscal year attended 100% of the meetings of the Board. All of the directors attended 100% of the aggregate number of meetings of those committees of the Board on which such director served during the year. We encourage each member of the Board to attend the annual meeting of shareholders, but have not adopted a formal policy with respect to such attendance.

     All of our directors who served during fiscal 2014 attended last year’s annual meeting, except Mr. Pein. The non-management directors meet regularly without any management directors or employees present. These meetings are held on the day of or day preceding other Board or committee meetings.

     The Board annually examines the relationships between the Company and each of our directors. After this examination, the Board has concluded that Messrs. Seabrooke, Pein and Edwards are “independent” as defined under Nasdaq Rule 5605(a)(2) and under Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act, as that term relates to membership on the Board and the various Board committees.

COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD

     The Board has established an Audit Committee, a Remuneration Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The members of our Board Committees are presented in the table below:

Audit Committee

     The Audit Committee consists of Messrs. Seabrooke, Pein and Edwards, with Mr. Seabrooke acting as the chairperson. The Board has determined that Mr. Seabrooke is an “audit committee financial expert” as that term is defined in applicable Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, rules, and that all three members meet Nasdaq’s financial literacy criteria. The Audit Committee held seven meetings during the 2014 fiscal year. See “Audit Committee Report” on page 28.

     The Audit Committee was established by the Board for the primary purpose of overseeing or assisting the Board in overseeing the following:

Remuneration Committee

     The Remuneration Committee comprises Messrs. Pein, Seabrooke and Edwards, with Mr. Pein acting as the chairperson. The Remuneration Committee held four meetings during the 2014 fiscal year. The Remuneration Committee has the following principal responsibilities, authority and duties:

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

     The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee comprises Messrs. Seabrooke, Pein and Edwards, with Mr. Seabrooke acting as the chairperson.

     A copy of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charter is available without charge on our website, www.net1.com under the “Investor Relations – Governance” section.

BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE AND BOARD OVERSIGHT OF RISK

Board Leadership

     Our Board of Directors is led by our Chairman, Dr. Belamant, who is also our Chief Executive Officer. The Board believes that Dr. Belamant’s service as both Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer is in our best interests and the best interests of our shareholders.

     A combined Chairman and Chief Executive Officer leadership structure is commonly utilized by public companies in the United States, and our Board believes that this leadership structure has been effective for us and minimizes the potential for duplication of efforts and conflict of roles. Dr. Belamant possesses detailed and in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities and challenges facing us, and is thus better positioned than a non-employee chairman to focus the Board’s time and attention on the matters that are most critical to us. Additionally, having one person serve as both Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer enables decisive leadership, ensures clear accountability and enhances our ability to communicate our message and strategy clearly and consistently to our shareholders, employees, customers and suppliers.

     While our Bylaws do not require that the roles of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer be filled by the same person, our Board believes that having Dr. Belamant fill both positions is the appropriate leadership structure for us.

     We do not have a lead director. The Board believes that all of our independent directors are active and engaged Board members and that a number of them fulfill a lead director role at various times depending upon the particular issues involved. Further, Mr. Seabrooke, who is the Chairman of both the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Audit Committee and is a member of the Remuneration Committee, presides over all executive sessions of the independent directors.

The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

     Managing risk is an ongoing process inherent in all decisions made by management. The Board of Directors discusses risk throughout the year, particularly at Board meetings when specific actions are considered for approval. The Board of Directors has ultimate responsibility to oversee our enterprise risk management program. This oversight is conducted primarily through various committees of the Board as described below.

     Our Enterprise Risk Management Committee is responsible for identifying, assessing, prioritizing and developing action plans to mitigate the material business, operational and strategic risks affecting us. The Enterprise Risk Management Committee comprises our Chief Executive Officer (who serves as chair), Chief Financial Officer and Group Compliance Officer. The Group Compliance Officer meets semi-annually with the leaders of our various business units and his findings are reported to and discussed by the Enterprise Risk Management Committee. The Enterprise Risk Management Committee meets and reports to the Audit Committee semi-annually.

10

     The Audit Committee directly provides oversight of risks relating to the integrity of our consolidated financial statements, internal control over financial reporting and the internal audit function. The Remuneration Committee oversees the management of risks related to our executive compensation program. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees the management of risks related to management succession planning.

REMUNERATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

     None of the members of our Remuneration Committee has at any time been one of our officers or employees. None of our executive officers serves or in the past has served as a member of the Board or remuneration committee of any entity that has one or more of its executive officers serving on our Board or our Remuneration Committee.

NOMINATIONS PROCESS AND DIRECTOR QUALIFICATIONS

     The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews with the Board the skills and characteristics required of Board members. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that the committee will consider a candidate’s independence, as well as the perceived needs of the Board and the candidate’s background, skills, business experience and expected contributions. At a minimum, members of the Board must possess the highest professional ethics, integrity and values, and be committed to representing the long-term interests of our shareholders. They must also have an inquisitive and objective perspective, practical wisdom and mature judgment. The committee may also take into account the benefits of diversity in candidates’ viewpoints, background and experience, as well as the benefits of constructive working relationships among directors. Other than as set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, the committee does not have a formal policy with respect to diversity.

     The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also reviews and determines whether existing members of the Board should stand for re-election, taking into consideration matters relating to the number of terms served by individual directors, the ability of an individual director to devote the appropriate level of time and attention to Board duties in light of other positions he holds (including other directorships) and the changing needs of the Board. We do not have a limit on the number of terms an individual may serve as a director on our Board.

     The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee utilizes a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating nominees for director. The committee regularly assesses the appropriate composition, size and independence of the Board, and whether any vacancies are expected due to change in employment or otherwise. In the event that vacancies are anticipated, or otherwise arise, the committee considers various potential candidates for director. Candidates are evaluated at regular or special meetings of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and may be considered at any point during the year. The committee will consider shareholder recommendations for candidates for the Board that are properly submitted in accordance with Section 4.16 of our by-laws in the same manner it considers nominees from other sources. In evaluating such recommendations, the committee will use the qualifications standards described above and will seek to achieve a balance of knowledge, experience and capability on the Board.

SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE BOARD

     Any shareholder who wishes to communicate directly with the Board may do so via mail or facsimile, addressed as follows:

Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc.
Board of Directors
PO Box 2424
Parklands, 2121, Johannesburg, South Africa
Fax: 27 11 880 7080

11

     The corporate secretary shall transmit any communication to the Board, or individual director(s), as applicable, as soon as practicable upon receipt. Absent safety or security concerns, the corporate secretary shall relay all communications, without any other screening for content.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE GUIDELINES

     The Board has adopted a set of corporate governance guidelines. We will continue to monitor our corporate governance guidelines and adopt changes as necessary to comply with rules adopted by the SEC and Nasdaq, and to conform to best industry practice. This monitoring will include comparing our existing policies and practices to policies and practices suggested by various groups or authorities active in corporate governance and the practices of other public companies. A copy of our corporate governance guidelines is available on our website at www.net1.com under the “Investor Relations – Governance” section.

CODE OF ETHICS

     The Board has adopted a written code of ethics, as defined in the regulations of the SEC. We require all directors, officers, employees, contractors, consultants and temporary staff, including our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer (who also serves as our principal accounting officer) and other senior personnel performing similar functions, to adhere to this code in addressing the legal and ethical issues encountered in conducting their work. Our code of ethics requires avoidance of conflicts of interest, compliance with all laws and other legal requirements, conduct of business in an honest and ethical manner, integrity and actions in our best interest. Directors, officers and employees are required to report any conduct that they believe in good faith to be an actual or apparent violation of the code. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires companies to have procedures to receive, retain and treat complaints received regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters and to allow for the confidential and anonymous submission by employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters. We currently have such procedures in place. A copy of our code of ethics is available upon request made either by mail to our corporate secretary at Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc., PO Box 2424, Parklands 2121, Johannesburg, South Africa or by telephone to our Investor Relations Department at + 1 917-767-6722. A copy of our code of ethics is also available free of charge on our website at www.net1.com under the “Investor Relations – Governance” section.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

     Directors who are also executive officers do not receive separate compensation for their services as directors. During fiscal 2014, our non-employee directors received compensation as described below.

     (1) As of June 30, 2014, the number of shares of restricted stock held by each non-employee director is as follows: Mr. Edwards – 9,394; Mr. Mosehla – 0; Mr. Pein – 12,614; Mr. Seabrooke – 15,768. 
     (2) Represents shares of restricted stock granted on August 21, 2013, one-third of which vest on August 22, 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively. Vesting of such shares is conditioned upon the recipient’s continuous service as a member of our Board through the applicable vesting date. The dollar value reflected is based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. Based on this price, the number of shares granted was as follows: Mr. Edwards—4,863; Mr. Mosehla—3,741; Mr. Pein—6,530 and Mr. Seabrooke—8,163.
     (3) Mr. Mosehla resigned on October 31, 2013. Upon his resignation, he forfeited 7,171 shares of unvested restricted stock.

12

     (4) Fees earned or paid in cash ($) includes $60,000 paid to Mr. Seabrooke in recognition of the considerable extra time and effort spent by him in fiscal 2013 as Chairman of the Audit Committee but outside of normal Board and Audit Committee forums, in particular in regard to matters arising from the SASSA tender award. No additional fees were, or will be, awarded for time and effort spent by him in fiscal 2014.

     In determining fiscal 2014 compensation, the Board analyzed the annual compensation of non-employee directors of US- and UK-listed transaction processor companies with a range of market equity capitalizations above, below and comparable to ours. The peer group comprised: Micros Systems Inc, Heartland Payment Systems, Inc., Global Payments Inc., Wright Express Corporation, Euronet Worldwide, Inc., Total System Services, Inc., Verifone Systems, Inc., Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. and Sage Group plc. In addition, the Board considered the various roles of the non-employee directors. Directors receive a base fee for membership on the Board. Directors who serve on Board committees and/or serve as chair of Board committees receive additional compensation in recognition of the additional time they are required to spend on committee matters.

EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN INFORMATION

     The following table sets forth information regarding our compensation plans under which our equity securities are authorized for issuance as of June 30, 2014:

     (1) In connection with the acquisition of Prism in July 2006, we granted Prism employees options to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $22.51 per share, which was the average of the high and low sale prices of the common stock on the date of grant. These options are all currently exercisable and expire on August 24, 2016.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

ANALYSIS OF RISK IN OUR COMPENSATION STRUCTURE

     As part of its responsibilities to annually review all incentive compensation and equity-based plans, and evaluate whether the compensation arrangements of our employees incentivize unnecessary and excessive risk-taking, the Remuneration Committee evaluated the risk profile of our compensation policies and practices for fiscal 2014 and concluded that they do not motivate imprudent risk taking. In its evaluation, the Remuneration Committee reviewed our employee compensation structures, and noted numerous design elements that manage and mitigate risk without diminishing the incentive nature of the compensation, including:

13

     The Remuneration Committee also reviewed our compensation programs for certain design features that may have the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking, including: over-weighting towards annual incentives, highly leveraged payout curves, unreasonable thresholds, and steep payout cliffs at certain performance levels that may encourage short-term business decisions to meet payout thresholds. The Remuneration Committee concluded that our compensation programs do not include such elements.

     In addition, the Remuneration Committee analyzed our overall enterprise risks and how compensation programs may impact individual behavior in a manner that could exacerbate these enterprise risks. For this purpose, the Remuneration Committee considered our growth and return performance, volatility and leverage. In light of these analyses, the Remuneration Committee concluded that it has a balanced pay and performance program that does not encourage excessive risk-taking that is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. We believe our compensation programs encourage and reward prudent business judgment and appropriate risk-taking over the long term.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Fiscal 2014 Compensation Summary

14

Overview

     The goal of our executive compensation program is the same as our goal for operating the Company—to create long-term value for our shareholders. To achieve this goal, we seek to reward our named executive officers for sustained financial and operating performance and leadership excellence, to align their interests with those of our shareholders and to encourage them to remain with us for long and rewarding careers. This section of the proxy statement explains how our compensation program is designed and operates in practice with respect to the four individuals who comprised our named executive officers at the end of our 2014 fiscal year—Dr. Belamant and Messrs. Kotzé, Oh and Soma. Our named executive officers have the broadest job responsibilities and are the only individuals who have policy-making authority.

     Each element of our executive compensation program is designed to fulfill one or more of our performance, alignment and retention objectives. These elements consist of salary, bonus and both equity and non-equity incentive compensation. Each named executive officer receives one or more, but not necessarily all, of these elements. In determining the type and amount of compensation for each executive officer, we focus on both current pay and the opportunity for future compensation and seek to combine compensation elements so as to optimize his or her contribution to us. We consider the mix of our compensation components from year to year based on our overall performance, an executive’s individual contributions, and compensation practices of other US- and UK-based public companies including companies in our “peer group” described below. We do not have an exact formula for allocating between cash and non-cash compensation. We do, nonetheless, provide for a balanced mix of compensation components that are designed to encourage and reward behavior that promotes shareholder value in both the short and long term.

     The chart below illustrates the mix of the elements of the 2014 compensation program we established for our named executive officers, using target levels for the cash incentive component.

15

Compensation Objectives

     Performance. We reward excellent performance by our named executive officers and motivate them to continue to produce superior, long-term results through a combination of cash bonuses, incentive payments that depend on achievement of pre-defined levels of financial and operating goals and equity awards in the form of stock options or restricted stock that derive their value from increases in our share price and/or satisfaction of other financial and strategic performance goals. Base salary, bonus and non-equity incentive compensation are designed to reward annual achievements and be commensurate with each executive officer’s scope of responsibility, demonstrated ingenuity, dedication, leadership and management effectiveness. Equity incentive compensation generally focuses on achievement of longer term results.

     Alignment. We seek to align the interests of our named executive officers with our shareholders by evaluating them on the basis of financial and non-financial measurements that we believe ultimately drive long-term shareholder value. The elements of our compensation package that we believe align these interests most closely are a combination of annual quantitative and qualitative cash compensation awards, stock option awards which increase in value as our stock price increases and restricted stock awards which vest over time and are granted or become vested upon the satisfaction of specified performance goals.

     Retention. The Remuneration Committee recognizes that the talent pool in South Africa is more limited than in other more developed countries. In addition, the long tenure of our South Africa-based management team, in particular, Dr. Belamant and Messrs. Kotzé and Soma, has made them especially knowledgeable about our business and industry and thus particularly valuable to us. Dr. Belamant in particular has intricate knowledge of, and has created large parts of the proprietary technology and software deployed by us in our operations, which is an indispensable part of our technological advantage in our various operations and future developments in our growth pipeline. We wish to avoid losing these long-tenured officers and their invaluable knowledge, particularly given how important they are to our future performance. Therefore, retention is a key objective of our executive compensation program. We attempt to retain our named executive officers by seeking to provide a competitive pay package and using continued service as a condition to receipt of full compensation. The extended vesting terms of equity awards have the effect of tying this element of compensation to continued service with us.

Implementing our Objectives

     Process for Determining Compensation. The Remuneration Committee analyzes compensation data of companies that it selects as a peer group to better understand how our pay package compares with those companies. The Remuneration Committee then uses this knowledge to develop our executive compensation program based on its judgment of what is appropriate and necessary to fulfill and maintain our staffing needs. As described in more detail below, it considers internal pay equity as between the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer and uses a formulaic approach to set the Chief Financial Officer’s compensation relative to the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation but does not do so for the other named executive officers.

     The peer group selected by the Remuneration Committee comprises a broad spectrum of companies, which range significantly in size from a revenue, profitability and enterprise value perspective. The peer group consists of payment processing companies generally considered comparable to us in terms of their businesses (such as being a payment systems provider) as well as other companies within other parts of the information technology sector and those operating in or providing services in emerging markets.

     Our peer group, which includes both US and UK listed companies, consists of the following companies: Micros Systems Inc., Heartland Payment Systems, Inc., Global Payments Inc., Wright Express Corporation, Euronet Worldwide, Inc., Total System Services, Inc., Verifone Systems, Inc., Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. and Sage Group plc.

     The Remuneration Committee's process for determining compensation includes an analysis of all elements of compensation. The Remuneration Committee compares these compensation components separately and in total to compensation at the peer group companies, taking into account, among other things, the relative market capitalizations of the Company and the members of the peer group. The Remuneration Committee sets the compensation of Mr. Kotzé based on the total compensation package of Dr. Belamant. Since the role played by Mr. Kotzé is significantly broader than that of a typical chief financial officer, the Remuneration Committee's goal is to set this package at approximately 45% to 65% of Dr. Belamant's total compensation package. Because the Remuneration Committee considers international comparables in its compensation analysis for both Dr. Belamant and Mr. Kotzé, their total compensation packages are denominated in US dollars. Because Mr. Soma's compensation package is derived from the amount of compensation we pay to Mr. Kotzé, his compensation package is also denominated in US dollars. Our executive officers based in South Africa may elect to be paid in a currency other than US dollars, in which case the US dollar amount is converted into South African Rand ("ZAR") at the exchange rate in effect at the time of payment. In the early part of each fiscal year, the Remuneration Committee establishes base salaries and sets the short-term cash incentive award plan remuneration targets and payment criteria for Dr. Belamant and Mr. Kotzé. Following the end of each fiscal year, the Remuneration Committee determines the annual incentive cash payments and bonuses, if any, to be made to each executive officer based on their and our performance during the fiscal year.

     Compensation for fiscal 2014 for Mr. Oh was determined in accordance with his employment agreement. Mr. Oh’s compensation is denominated and paid in Korean won (KRW) in accordance with the terms of his negotiated employment agreement. Under the employment agreement, he receives a base salary and is entitled to receive a cash incentive payment based upon the achievement of certain targets that are linked to the operating performance of KSNET. We have aligned KSNET’s year end with ours. However, in order to remain consistent with our Korean peer competitors, we continue to determine Mr. Oh’s cash incentive payment (and our KSNET staff’s remuneration) using KSNET’s financial results for the twelve month period ending December of each year. Accordingly, we determined Mr. Oh’s cash incentive payment for the twelve month period ended December 2013.

     Before the Remuneration Committee makes decisions on compensation for the year, it discusses with Dr. Belamant each executive officer’s performance during the year, his or her accomplishments and specific areas of progress. Dr. Belamant bases his evaluation on his knowledge of each executive officer’s performance (with due regard to the operational environment) and targets that have been set for a particular performance period. The executive officers are then evaluated based on their individual performance during the fiscal year. Dr. Belamant makes a recommendation to the Remuneration Committee on each executive officer’s compensation, except for his own and Mr. Kotzé’s compensation. Executive officers do not propose or seek approval for their own compensation. Dr. Belamant’s and Mr. Kotzé’s annual performance review is developed by the Remuneration Committee as a whole.

     The Remuneration Committee also consults with Dr. Belamant and Mr. Kotzé regarding non-executive officer employee compensation and is responsible for approving all awards under our Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan (the "Stock Incentive Plan").

     Equity Grant Practices. We believe that long-term performance of our company is achieved through a culture that encourages long-term performance by our executive officers through the use of stock and stock-based awards. Accordingly, awards of stock options and restricted stock are a fundamental element in our executive compensation program because they emphasize long-term performance, as measured by creation of shareholder value, and foster a commonality of interest between shareholders and employees. We have granted equity awards through our Stock Incentive Plan which was adopted by our Board of Directors and approved by our shareholders to permit the grant of stock options and other stock-based awards to our employees, directors and consultants. Options granted under the plan vest ratably over a period of three to five years after grant unless otherwise provided in a particular award agreement and have ten-year terms from the date of grant.

17

     In determining the size of an equity award to an executive officer, the Remuneration Committee considers the executive’s then current cash total compensation package (which includes salary, potential bonus and cash incentive award plan compensation), any previously received equity awards, the value of the grant at the time of award and the number of shares available for grants pursuant to our Stock Incentive Plan.

     We record stock-based compensation charges over the vesting term of the equity award as required under current accounting standards. When awarding equity compensation, management and the Remuneration Committee seek to weigh the cost of these grants with their potential benefits as a compensation tool. We believe that combining grants of stock options and restricted stock effectively balances our objective of focusing our employees, including our named executive officers, on delivering long-term value to our shareholders, with our objective of providing value to our employees with the equity awards. Stock options have value only to the extent that our stock price on the date of exercise exceeds the stock price on the date of grant or any particular minimum share price necessary to vest such options, and thus are an effective compensation tool only if the stock price appreciates during the vesting term. In this sense, stock options are a motivational tool.

     Employment Agreements. Our South African resident executives are employed on an “at will” basis, without employment agreements, severance payment arrangements (except as required by local labor laws), or payment arrangements that would be triggered by a change in control. The absence of such arrangements enables us to terminate the employment of these named executive officers with discretion as to the terms of any severance arrangement that might be provided upon such termination. This is consistent with our performance-based employment and compensation philosophy. We do have restraint of trade agreements with each of these named executive officers. The terms of these agreements provide that upon the termination of the executive’s employment, the executive is restricted, for a period of 24 months, from soliciting business from certain customers, working for or holding interests in our competitors or participating in a competitive activity within the territories where we do business.

     However, we do from time to time enter into employment agreements with senior executives of companies that we acquire in connection with the acquisition. Compensation under that initial employment agreement would not ordinarily be determined by reference to peer group comparisons. We entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Oh in October 2010 in connection with our acquisition of KSNET. The agreement expired on June 30, 2014 and was renewed for a three-year term commencing July 1, 2014. Concurrently, we appointed Mr. Oh as a representative director of Net1 Korea and entered into a three-year employment agreement with Mr. Oh pursuant to this appointment, which provides only for nominal compensation. The terms of the two new three-year agreements were based on the original KSNET agreement and no peer group comparisons were performed.

     Under the employment agreement that was in effect for fiscal 2014, Mr. Oh was entitled to receive the following cash compensation: (i) an annual base salary of KRW 375 million for the entire term, (ii) an annual conditional guaranteed bonus of KRW 200 million and (iii) an annual conditional incremental bonus equal to 2.72% of base salary multiplied by an operating profit growth multiple. The annual guaranteed bonus was conditioned on KSNET achieving operating profit in a fiscal year (defined as KSNET net income before interest, taxation and the conditional guaranteed bonus and the conditional incremental bonus) that was greater or equal to operating profit for the immediately preceding fiscal year. Operating profit growth multiple was defined as the amount (expressed in percentage terms), if any, beyond which operating profit in a fiscal year exceeds operating profit for the immediately preceding fiscal year by 15%. The combined conditional guaranteed and incremental bonus was limited to 125% of annual base salary. Because KSNET’s fiscal year ends in December, Mr. Oh’s annual conditional guaranteed and incremental bonuses were calculated on the 12 month period ending December 31.

     Under the terms of his employment agreements, Mr. Oh is entitled to participate in national health insurance and the national pension plan provided under the laws of Korea, to receive reimbursement for annual physical examinations for him and his spouse, education expenses and to make use of a company provided car and driver for business and reasonable personal use.

18

     Similar to the restraint of trade agreements that we have with our other named executive officers, Mr. Oh’s employment agreement provides that upon the termination of his services with us, he is restricted, for a period of 36 months, from soliciting business from certain customers, working for or holding interests in our competitors or participating in a competitive activity within the territories where we do business. The employment agreement also provides for certain payments upon his termination of service by us without just cause, which payments are described below under “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change-inControl” on page 25.

     Considerations Regarding Tax Deductibility of Compensation. Section 162(m) of the US tax code places a limit of $1 million on the amount of compensation that we may deduct in any one year with respect to our Chief Executive Officer and each of the three most highly compensated executive officers other than our Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer. Certain qualified performance-based compensation is not subject to this deduction limit. To maintain flexibility in compensating our named executive officers in a manner designed to promote our various corporate goals, it is not a policy of the Remuneration Committee that all executive compensation must be tax-deductible. The Remuneration Committee believes that the importance of retaining this flexibility outweighs the benefits of tax deductibility.

     Compensation Consultants. Neither we nor the Remuneration Committee have any contractual arrangement with any compensation consultant or used the services of any compensation consultant who has a role in determining or recommending the amount or form of executive officer compensation.

     Role of Shareholder Say-on-Pay Votes. We provide our shareholders with the opportunity to cast an annual, nonbinding advisory vote to approve executive compensation (a “say-on-pay proposal”). At our annual meeting of shareholders held on November 18, 2013, approximately 74% of the votes cast on the say-on-pay proposal at that meeting were voted in favor of the proposal. The Remuneration Committee considered the outcome of that advisory vote to be an endorsement of the Remuneration Committee’s compensation philosophy and implementation. The Remuneration Committee will continue to consider the outcome of say-on-pay votes when making future compensation decisions for our named executive officers.

Elements of 2014 Compensation

     Base Salary. Salaries for fiscal 2014 were determined in the first quarter of the 2014 fiscal year after a review of our peer group companies described above. The annual base salaries of Dr. Belamant and Messrs. Kotzé and Soma were increased by 5% to $937,125, $496,125 and $302,400, respectively. The increase in annual base salary in each case was effective July 1, 2013. Mr. Oh did not receive a base salary increase for fiscal 2014.

     Payments under Cash Incentive Award Plan. During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Remuneration Committee established a cash incentive award plan for Dr. Belamant and Mr. Kotzé pursuant to which each of them would be eligible to earn a cash incentive award based on our fiscal 2014 financial performance and his individual contribution toward the achievement of certain corporate objectives. The plan provided for a target-level cash incentive award of 100% of the executive’s base salary for fiscal 2014, 70% of which was to be based on a quantitative metric (achievement of specified levels of fundamental diluted earnings per share) and 30% of which was to be based on the level of achievement of the qualitative factors described below.

     The quantitative portion of the award provided for threshold, target and maximum amounts of 50%, 100% and 200% for Dr. Belamant, or 50%, 100% and 150% for Mr. Kotzé, respectively, of the executive’s base salary multiplied by 0.70 (to reflect that 70% of the target award was based on the quantitative factors). The qualitative portion of the award was limited to 100% of the executive’s base salary multiplied by 0.30 (to reflect that 30% of the target award was based on qualitative factors).

19

     Quantitative Portion of the Cash Incentive Award Plan

     The quantitative portion of the cash incentive award plan was based on the achievement of specified levels of fundamental diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2014. The following levels of fundamental diluted earnings per share entitle the executive to receive the following percentages of this portion of the award:

     Quantitative Portion of the Cash Incentive Award Plan—Potential and Actual Payments

     The table below presents our potential and actual payments to Dr. Belamant and Mr. Kotzé related to the quantitative portion of our cash incentive award plan for fiscal 2014:

     After the close of fiscal 2014, the Remuneration Committee met and determined each element of the Company’s financial performance described above and each executive’s contribution toward the progress against the qualitative objectives. Based on achievement of fundamental diluted earnings per share of in excess of $1.80 per share, the Remuneration Committee determined to award Dr. Belamant and Mr. Kotzé cash incentive payments of $1,311,975 and $520,931, respectively, in respect of the quantitative portion of the cash incentive award plan. These amounts represent the maximum payment under the quantitative portion of the cash incentive award plan.

     Qualitative Portion of the Cash Incentive Award Plan

Each of Dr. Belamant and Mr. Kotzé were entitled to receive up to 30% of his annual base salary based on his individual contribution toward the achievement of the following Company-wide objectives no later than August 2014 (which is the scheduled time during the year that the Remuneration Committee reviews performance against the qualitative metrics of our cash incentive award plan):

     After the close of fiscal 2014, the Remuneration Committee considered whether to make payments in respect of the qualitative portion of the cash incentive award plan. The Remuneration Committee determined to award each of Dr. Belamant and Mr. Kotzé 87%, or $243,653 and $128,993, respectively, of the qualitative portion of the cash incentive award.

20

     In reaching its conclusion, the Remuneration Committee considered several factors. First, the Company implemented two BEE transactions on favorable terms which minimized dilution and resulted in increased shareholder value. These transactions were designed to enhance the Company’s ability to win any new tender from the South African Social Security Agency. Second, the Company successfully disposed of two non-core businesses (MediKredit and NUETS), which will enable management to focus more time and attention on its core operations and growth businesses, including its Net1 Mobile Solutions business, which introduced a number of innovative products during the year. The Remuneration Committee also considered the rate of progress made on regulatory issues.

     Conditional Guaranteed and Incremental Bonus for Mr. Oh. Mr. Oh met his conditional guaranteed bonus target and therefore an amount of $190,572 was paid to him for fiscal 2014. Mr. Oh did not meet his conditional incremental bonus target and therefore no incremental bonus was paid to him for fiscal 2014.

     Bonus for Mr. Soma. Mr. Soma, our Vice-President – Information Technology received a bonus of $290,304 for fiscal 2014 as a result of his participation in various new business development initiatives (particularly the development and successful testing of our biometric ATM solution); maintaining and strengthening our relationships with key IT suppliers, card associations and IT regulatory bodies; ongoing oversight of various software development projects, including the applications for delivery of financial inclusion in South Africa; and continuing oversight of the information technology component of our Sarbanes-Oxley compliance.

     Equity Incentive Awards. In August 2013, Dr. Belamant, Mr. Kotzé and Mr. Soma were awarded options to purchase 121,428, 64,285 and 39,183 shares of common stock, respectively. These options are exercisable at a price of $7.35 per share, which was the closing price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on August 21, 2013. One-third of the options awarded to Dr. Belamant, Mr. Kotzé and Mr. Soma vest on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date and expire ten years after the grant date, conditioned on the continuous service of the recipient through the applicable vesting date.

     In addition, on August 21, 2013, Mr. Oh was awarded 13,333 shares of restricted stock. One-third of the award shares vest on the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date, conditioned on his continuous service through the applicable vesting date.

     Other. We provide on-site residential security services for Dr. Belamant consisting of two armed guards. These services are provided based on bona fide business-related security concerns and are an integral part of our overall risk management program. The Board believes that provision of these security services is a necessary and appropriate business expense because Dr. Belamant’s personal safety and security are of the utmost importance to us and our shareholders. These security services may be viewed as conveying a personal benefit to Dr. Belamant. Under Mr. Oh’s employment agreement, he was paid or reimbursed for the items described under “—Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Implementing our Objectives—Employment Agreements.”

REMUNERATION COMMITTEE REPORT

For the Year Ended June 30, 2014

     The information contained in this report shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or “filed” with the SEC or subject to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Exchange Act, except to the extent that Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc. specifically incorporates it by reference into a document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or the Exchange Act.

     The Remuneration Committee, which comprises three independent directors, has reviewed and discussed the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this proxy statement with our Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Serge C.P. Belamant, and our Chief Financial Officer, Herman G. Kotzé. Based on this review and discussion, the Remuneration Committee recommended to our Board of Directors that the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and this proxy statement.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION TABLES

     The following narrative, tables and footnotes describe the “total compensation” earned during fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, as applicable, by our named executive officers. The total compensation presented below in the Summary Compensation Table does not reflect the actual compensation received by our named executive officers or the target compensation of our named executive officers in fiscal 2014. The actual value realized by our named executive officers in fiscal 2014 from long-term equity incentives (options and restricted stock) is presented in the Option Exercises and Stock Vested Table on page 25. Target annual incentive awards for fiscal 2014 are presented in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards table on page 23.

SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE ⁽¹⁾

     The following table sets forth the compensation earned by our named executive officers for services rendered during fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012.

22

GRANTS OF PLAN-BASED AWARDS ⁽¹⁾

     The following table provides information concerning non-equity and equity incentive plan awards granted during fiscal 2014 to each of our named executive officers.

23

OUTSTANDING EQUITY AWARDS AT 2014 FISCAL YEAR-END ⁽¹⁾

     The following table shows all outstanding equity awards held by our named executive officers at the end of fiscal 2014. The market value of unvested shares reflected in this table is calculated by multiplying the number of unvested shares by the per share closing price of $11.38 of our common stock on June 30, 2014, the last trading day of the fiscal year.

24

OPTION EXERCISES AND STOCK VESTED ⁽¹⁾

     There were no stock options exercised by our named executive officers during fiscal 2014. The following table shows all stock awards that vested during fiscal 2014.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE-IN-CONTROL

     As described above under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis”, we do not have employment, severance or change of control agreements with named executive officers, other than the employment agreement with Mr. Oh. In addition, none of our outstanding equity awards include provisions for accelerated vesting upon a change in control of our company or termination of employment following such a change in control.

     Under the terms of Mr. Oh’s employment agreement, if he is removed from office as a director of KSNET without justifiable cause, he is entitled to receive the amounts of base salary and the bonus (if any) that would have been due and payable to him if he was fully employed with us for the remainder of the then-current fiscal year. The term “justifiable cause” includes any of the following circumstances, as well as any other circumstances permitted under applicable law:

25

     Assuming that Mr. Oh was removed from office as a director of KSNET without justifiable cause on the last day of fiscal 2014, i.e., June 30, 2014, Mr. Oh would not have been entitled to receive any cash severance because he would have already received all amounts of base salary and bonus for the fiscal year.

     Mr. Oh is also entitled to a severance payment equal to 300% of his monthly base salary for each completed year of service at KSNET. Using exchange rates applicable as of June 30, 2014, and seven years of completed service, Mr. Oh would be entitled to a severance payment of $625,313.

     Except as described above with respect to Mr. Oh, there would be no compensation, other than that prescribed by local labor laws in the case of unfair dismissal or retrenchment, that would become payable under the existing plans and arrangements if the employment of any of our named executive officers had terminated on June 30, 2014.

     We do not have any ongoing obligation to provide post-termination benefits to our named executive officers after termination of employment.

     CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Review, Approval or Ratification of Related Person Transactions

     We review all relationships and transactions in which we and our directors and named executive officers or their immediate family members are participants to determine whether such persons have a direct or indirect material interest. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are primarily responsible for the development and implementation of processes and controls to obtain information from the directors and named executive officers with respect to related person transactions and for then determining, based on the facts and circumstances, whether we or a related person has a direct or indirect material interest in the transaction. As required under SEC rules, transactions that are determined to be directly or indirectly material to us or a related person are disclosed in our proxy statement. In addition, our Audit Committee reviews and approves or ratifies any related person transaction that is required to be disclosed. In the course of its review and approval or ratification of a disclosable related party transaction, our Audit Committee considers:

26

     Any member of the Audit Committee who is a related person with respect to a transaction under review may not participate in the deliberations or vote respecting approval or ratification of the transaction, provided, however, that such director may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the committee that considers the transaction.

Related Party Transactions

     There were no related party transactions during fiscal 2014 that are required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation S-K.

AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT FEES

     All Other Fees – There were no such fees paid in the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 or 2013.

27

Pre-Approval of Non-Audit Services

     Pursuant to our Audit Committee charter, our Audit Committee reviews and pre-approves both audit and non-audit services to be provided by our independent auditors. The authority to grant pre-approvals of non-audit services may be delegated to one or more designated members of the Audit Committee whose decisions will be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting. During fiscal years 2014 and 2013, all of services provided by Deloitte with respect to fiscal years 2014 and 2013 were pre-approved by the Board and the Audit Committee.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

     The Audit Committee of the Board consists of three independent directors, as required by Nasdaq listing standards. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board and available on our website at www.net1.com under the “Investor Relations – Governance” section. The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing our financial reporting process on behalf of the Board. The members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Seabrooke, Pein and Edwards. The Audit Committee selects, subject to shareholder ratification, our independent registered public accounting firm.

     Management is responsible for our financial statements and the financial reporting process, including internal controls. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States and of our internal control over financial reporting and for issuing a report thereon. The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes.

     In this context, the Audit Committee has met and held discussions with management and Deloitte. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer represented to the Audit Committee that the consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and the committee reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements with our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and Deloitte. The Audit Committee discussed with Deloitte the matters required to be discussed by the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1. AU §380), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T. These matters included a discussion of Deloitte’s judgments about the quality (not just the acceptability) of our accounting principles as applied to our financial reporting.

     Deloitte also provided the Audit Committee with the written disclosures and letter required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Deloitte’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and the Audit Committee discussed with Deloitte the firm’s independence. The Audit Committee further considered whether the provision by Deloitte of the non-audit services described above is compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence.

     Based upon the Audit Committee’s discussion with management and Deloitte and the Audit Committee’s review of the representations of management and the disclosures by Deloitte to the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that our audited consolidated financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2014, for filing with the SEC.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND
MANAGEMENT

     The following table presents, as of October 3, 2014, information about beneficial ownership of our common stock by:

     Beneficial ownership of shares is determined in accordance with SEC rules and generally includes any shares over which a person exercises sole or shared voting or investment power. The beneficial ownership percentages set forth below are based on 46,475,623 shares of common stock outstanding as of October 3, 2014. All shares of common stock, including that common stock underlying stock options that are presently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days after October 3, 2014 (which we refer to as being currently exercisable) by each person are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by that person for the purpose of computing the ownership percentage of that person, but are not considered outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Unless otherwise indicated, to our knowledge, each person listed in the table below has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares shown as beneficially owned by such person, except to the extent applicable law gives spouses shared authority.

     Except as otherwise noted, each shareholder’s address is c/o Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc., President Place, 4th Floor, Corner of Jan Smuts Avenue and Bolton Road, Rosebank, Johannesburg, South Africa.

Corporate Secretary. You also may request additional copies of the proxy materials by notifying us in writing at the same address.

     If you share an address with another shareholder and currently are receiving multiple copies of the proxy materials, you may request householding by notifying us at the above-referenced address.

Other Matters

     The Board knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the annual meeting. Return of a valid proxy, however, confers on the designated proxy holders the discretionary authority to vote the shares in accordance with their best judgment on such other business, if any, that may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.
