Bank verification
Verify Awash Bank Transactions
Awash Bank publishes transaction receipts as public HTML pages on awashpay.awashbank.com. The share link has a two-part token: the first part is the numeric Transaction ID encoded in base-36, and the second part is a server-side counter that increases with transaction time. The link is sent automatically via SMS after every transaction. You can also share it from the Awash app.
Required information
- Transaction reference (required), e.g. 2KDL95Z0NR-4U61O6
Reference number format
Awash share link from SMS (e.g. https://awashpay.awashbank.com:8225/-2KDL95Z0NR-4U61O6). The first segment is base-36 of the Transaction ID; the second segment is a server counter.
