Pay a loved one's bill without asking for their details
Your buddies save their bills under nicknames like "Mum's House" or "Tunde's DStv". When you want to help, you see only the nickname and a masked number, and pay it directly. The money goes to the bill itself, and you both get a receipt.
Bills you can gift
- Electricity (prepaid and postpaid)
- Cable TV
- Airtime
- Data bundles
- Betting wallets
