How do I make a payment to someone I’ve paid before?

There are a number of ways you can make a payment to someone you’ve paid before.

  • Online Banking

    You can easily make payments by going to the top menu on your Online Banking homepage and selecting ‘Pay and transfer’ and then ‘Make a payment’.

    Making a payment is a 3-step process

    1. Enter payment details

    2. Confirm details

    3. Receive receipt

    1. Enter payment details

    Since you've made a payment to this person previously, their details will be on your payee list. So you’ll just need to type a reference. This could be anything that will be helpful for you (and the person you're paying) to identify the payment.

    2. Confirm details

    Please make sure you check the payment details carefully before you confirm the payment.

    3. Receive receipt

    You'll see a screen confirming all the details of your payment, including the expected time it will take to reach the account. You can also download a PDF of the receipt.
