I’ve been an NCBA customer for nearly a year. And while I don’t transact with them as often as I do business with Equity bank, they’re just as good. In fact, the NCBA paybill number makes it easy to make payments for goods and services 24 hours a day.
The NCBA M-pesa paybill number is 880100. Use this number to make payments for goods and services wherever NCBA is available. Also, note that NCBA has a loop service, which uses the paybill number 714777. This number is strictly for depositing funds in loop accounts.
With the high level of flexibility that NCBA mobile banking offers, you don’t have to carry cash or Credit/Debit card with you.
Make cashless payments anywhere and keeps your funds secure.
