1. Open the menu

Open your mobile-money menu and choose the option for paying a bill or a business.

2. Enter the business number

Enter the trust’s business number. On the Give page it is shown for your network, with the exact amount.

3. Enter an account

Use your name as the account number, so we can match the payment to your pledge.

4. Confirm

Enter your PIN. You get a confirmation message; keep it as your receipt.

5. Tell us
