Work.

The Payment Process
Scan the QR code
The seller shows you a QR code. Use your phone camera to scan it - this opens a secure payment page in your browser.
Review the amount
You'll see the exact amount set by the seller. Verify the total matches your purchase before proceeding.
Choose your bank
Select your bank. You'll be redirected securely to your bank's own app to authorise.
Authorise securely
Your bank app opens for your approval. Authenticate using your normal PIN or biometrics - just like a regular transfer.
Payment confirmed
Once authorised, the transaction is complete. The seller receives instant confirmation and you get a receipt page.
Completely safe
Your bank handles all security. Tillify never sees your account details, card numbers or personal information.
Digital receipt
Appears as a regular bank transfer in your account. You have a clear, verified record of what you paid for, when and to whom.
