The initiative is to make it easier for Ghanaians to join the party.
The National Chairman of the NPP, Stephen Ayesu Ntim, introduced the system at the party's headquarters in Accra last Tuesday citing the party's increasing popularity and high demand for the party cards.
Popularity
"Due to the increasing popularity of the NPP and the bold solutions being championed by the flag bearer of the party, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, more Ghanaians are into it, expressing interest in joining the New Patriotic Party," he said.
"In view of the high demand for the party card, the national leadership of the party have resolved to decentralise the issuance of the party cards at the constituency and regional levels to enhance the acquisition of the party cards to boost dues payments as part of our resource mobilisation efforts," Mr Ntim said.
He said it was a strategic move to increase membership and strengthen grassroots support ahead of the 2024 elections.
"The system will enhance the acquisition of party cards and boost dues payment," Mr Ntim said.
He called for partnerships with private vendors to increase membership drive.
