Topping up your wallets
In order to make payouts via our API, your wallet must have sufficient funds available. Where a payout request is made and the wallet has insufficient balance to complete the transaction, the transaction will fail.
Accordingly, if you intend to use payouts you may be required to pre-fund (top up) your pawaPay wallet.
In order to streamline the process you are encouraged to follow the instructions below whenever a top up is being made to your pawaPay wallet.
Send your funds to the correct bank account
When sending funds to top up your wallet in a particular country, you are requested to send those funds to the bank account for the respective market included in the list at the bottom of this page.
Notify our team of your top up
Transfer the funds
Transfer the funds to one of our bank accounts depending on how and where you are topping up.
Find all bank accounts below.

After you have sent us funds, you can inform us of a top-up by pressing on the “Support” button in the lower left corner of the page in our dashboard.

Our team will be in touch with you as soon as possible to confirm receipt of the funds and that your top up has been actioned.
