The confirmation screen will display the recipient’s details, the amount you are issuing, and the payment method you have selected. Review the details carefully to ensure that they are correct before proceeding to the final step.

Step 7: Press Send to Complete Transaction

Once you have confirmed the details, press the “Send” button to complete the transaction. PayPulse will deduct the amount from your account or card and issue a BlueVoucher to the recipient instantly.

Step 8: Receive SMS with BlueVoucher Number and PIN

After completing the transaction, you will receive an SMS with the BlueVoucher number and PIN. Make sure to keep this information safe, as it will be required for redemption.
