- The transaction reference
- FAKE0000000000
Where to find it. The Abay Bank SMS, or the Abay Mobile transaction list.
The thing that catches people out
Abay publishes receipts through its mobile banking host rather than a dedicated receipt domain, so the link a customer shares often points at a page that needs the reference on the end. Send the whole link rather than a screenshot of it.
How to check an Abay Bank payment before you hand over goods
- 1.Get the reference, not a screenshotAsk for the the receipt link. The Abay Bank SMS, or the Abay Mobile transaction list. A screenshot is a picture of a claim; the reference is the thing Abay Bank can confirm.
- 2.Look it upPaste it in, or send it to the API from your own system. links.et fetches the receipt from abaymobile.com.et, which is Abay Bank's own receipt service.
- 3.Check the amount and the receiverCompare both against your own record. A Abay Bank receipt that resolves but pays a different account is the most common real fraud, and it is easy to miss when you only read the status line.
- 4.Check it is not a repeatConfirm the reference is not one you have already accepted. A genuine Abay Bank receipt shown to two sellers verifies for both of them, and nothing on the receipt itself says it has been spent.
Questions about Abay Bank
How do I verify an Abay Bank transaction?
Take the the receipt link from the Abay Bank receipt and paste it into links.et. It fetches the receipt from abaymobile.com.et, which is Abay Bank's own receipt service, and returns the amount, sender, receiver, reference and timestamp exactly as the bank recorded them. The Abay Bank SMS, or the Abay Mobile transaction list.
What does an Abay Bank transaction reference look like?
Abay Bank accepts 2 kinds of input: the receipt link, the transaction reference. An example of the first shape is https://abaymobile.com.et/info/413FAKE00000000000000000000, which is invented rather than a real reference.
Can an Abay Bank payment screenshot be faked?
Yes. Any screenshot can be edited, and edited Abay Bank screenshots are common enough that a picture should never be treated as proof on its own. What cannot be edited is the receipt Abay Bank publishes at abaymobile.com.et. links.et goes and reads that, so the amount you see is the bank's, not the image's.
Why did my Abay Bank lookup come back empty?
Abay publishes receipts through its mobile banking host rather than a dedicated receipt domain, so the link a customer shares often points at a page that needs the reference on the end. Send the whole link rather than a screenshot of it.
Is Abay Bank verification down?
links.et probes abaymobile.com.et every few minutes from inside Ethiopia and publishes the result at https://links.et/status/abay, with the history behind it. If that page shows an outage, the bank's receipt service is unreachable and no verification tool can read it, including this one. Payments made during an outage still verify normally once it clears.
