How It Works

Register

Send /start to the bot, register your business, and add your bank account. Our admin approves you within minutes.

Add Employees

Add your cashiers by phone number. They join the bot and start verifying payments immediately — no access to your bank account needed.

Verify Instantly

Employees send a transaction ID, bank SMS, or receipt photo. Bonno fetches the official receipt and confirms the match in seconds.
