Capitec Error 011 on App | Fix Steps

If you’re seeing Capitec error code 011, it usually means the app can’t verify the installation or your device. You might see a message like “We’re unable to verify your app installation.”

🔍 Common Causes

• Unstable internet—weak Wi-Fi or mobile data can block server verification

• App installation verification failure—the app may not recognize a legit setup

• Device not supported—only Android 5.0+, iOS 11+, and Huawei EMUI 10+ are officially supported. Rooted or jailbroken phones often fail verification

• Insufficient permissions—if the app lacks access to storage, phone or network services, the verification may fail

• In some cases, Capitec servers or authentication systems are experiencing issues—Error 011 may be accompanied by Error 004

User reports on platforms like HelloPeter and X confirm that while this issue is common, it may not always be due to user error:

“Trying to login to my banking app, and it keeps failing, showing error code 011 and 004.”
“Updated my Capitec app—now I can’t log in. Keeps showing error 011.”
