Quick Payments

We often have people we send money to on a regular basis and bills that we pay often. To save you the trouble of going through the whole transaction process every time you want to send money or make a regular payment ZB WhatsApp banking has the quick payments functionality. With quick payments, whenever you wish to send money or make a regular payment, you simply use the nickname you used to save these details.

Below is an example of how to make a quick payment:

“Send/Pay <nickname> amount” e.g. Send Mom 200 or Pay driver 50 for internal transfer and ZIPIT.
“Pay/Buy biller <nickname> amount” e.g. Pay COH 500 or Buy $5 ZESA token.
You can also view your balance by typing: What’s my balance? OR Get balance OR Balance OR My recent transactions OR Get my statement.
