You can pay anyone in NZ with a NZ mobile phone. Your mobile phone contacts who have Dosh are identified with the blue Dosh icon next to their name in your Dosh contacts list.

Your Dosh contacts will receive instant notification that they have received money from you.

You can also pay contacts who have not yet downloaded Dosh. Simply select their name, enter the amount and hit confirm.

They will receive an SMS inviting them to download Dosh to accept your payment. If they use your referral code when they sign up to Dosh, you will receive a $5 referral bonus (only one referral code can be used per customer signing up to Dosh).

As soon as they open their Dosh app, your payment will be waiting for them. :)

If you don't have the person's mobile number in your contacts list, you can scan their personal QR code, then enter the amount you want to pay them. Access your QR code in the Dosh app, by tapping the QR icon on your Home Screen. Easy!

Top tip: Make sure your Dosh notifications are turned on, so you know when you have received a payment, or a payment request.
