How to Get POP on the ABSA App

Getting a Proof of Payment (POP) on your Absa app is actually quite simple once you know where to look. Whether you need it for your records, to send to a friend, or for a service provider, the app makes it quick and easy.
To get Proof of Payment (POP) on the Absa app, simply log in to your Absa Mobile Banking App, navigate to your transaction history or the beneficiaries section, locate the specific payment you need proof for, and then select the option to download or share the 'Notice of Payment' or 'Proof of Payment' as a PDF document.
It's a common thing to need proof that you've sent money. I remember one time, I paid my rent, and my landlord had a small mix-up with their records. Instead of stressing out or driving to the bank, I just opened my Absa app, pulled up the payment, and sent the POP right from my phone. It took literally a minute and saved me a lot of hassle. It's really useful for those moments when you need quick confirmation.
Let's break down the steps to get your POP.
Your Quick Guide to Getting POP on the Absa App
Here’s how you can get your proof of payment on the Absa banking app:
1. Open and Log In to Your App: First things first, open the Absa Mobile Banking App on your smartphone or tablet and log in using your passcode or biometric details.
2. Find the Menu: Look for the "Menu" option. This is usually at the bottom right of your screen and might look like three horizontal lines or dots. Tap on it to open up more options.
3. Go to Transaction History or Beneficiaries:
- For recent payments: Many times, you can go to "Transaction History" to see a list of all your past money movements. You might need to choose the type of transaction you're looking for.
- For payments to saved people: If you paid someone you've saved as a beneficiary, head to the "Beneficiaries" section. Then, on the "Payments" tab, select the specific beneficiary you paid.
4. Select the Payment: From the list of transactions or within the beneficiary's payment history, find and tap on the exact payment you need the proof for. A detailed view of that payment will open.
5. Download or Share the Proof: Now, look for an option that says "Download Proof of Payment," "Send notice of payment," "Download notice of payment," or even a "Share" button. Tap on this. The proof will usually be generated as a PDF file.
I was helping my cousin set up his Absa app a few months ago, and he was really surprised by how much you can do. He needed a POP for a payment he made to SARS, and we quickly found the option under his transaction history. He then just clicked the share button and emailed it to himself to keep it safe. It’s definitely a handy feature.
Once you download it, the proof of payment will usually save to your phone's "Downloads" folder, or you can choose to share it directly via email or other messaging apps.
Being able to manage your money and access important documents like a proof of payment directly from your phone is super convenient. It makes dealing with bank tasks so much faster and easier.
