How do I get paid?
We offer a variety of payment options. Whatever method you choose, it’s mandatory that you have up-to-date ID on your account. If your ID is out of date, you can update it at your local EMR site or using our online customer portal.
All sites:
- Bank transfer (same day or next day available) — A quick, secure option.
- SecOre payment card — Instantly load money onto your card and spend wherever you see the Mastercard logo.
- Cheque cashing — If it is your first time cashing a cheque, you’ll need to provide up-to-date ID and complete a registration form. After that, you'll need to show ID every time you use the service.
Selected sites:
- ATM — Simply scan the QR code on your ticket using the ATM machine, confirm the amount on screen, and your money will be dispensed.

- UK/EU passports
- UK biometric immigration documents
- EU National ID cards
For proof of address, we accept:
- Utility bills (issued within 3 months, not mobile phone bills)
