Payment Card
Your payment card can be used when you pay at any outlet displaying the following logos:
Cash, Cheque or debit card payments accepted. If paying by cheque, please make it payable to “Post Office Ltd”

Using your payment card is a convenient way to pay and you will not be charged to use this service.
Tell the cashier how much you want to pay. The card will then be passed through their till and handed back to you with a receipt for the payment made. You must make sure that you are given a receipt, keep this receipt safe as it is proof of your payment. Your account will show this payment the day after you have paid.
