Discover how Mamo Pay works, register and how to get started.
To check if a friend is already on Mamo Pay, open the app and type out the amount you want to send. Once you are on the contact selection screen, you will see that some of your contacts have a blue Mamo icon next to their name. These contacts already have Mamo Pay. Search for the person you want to send money to and check if they have the blue Mamo icon. If they don’t, they are not on Mamo Pay and will receive a link via SMS or email letting them know you’ve sent money.
If you've sent at least AED 20 on the app before March 1st, then you are eligible to earn referral rewards.
Every time you refer a new friend to use Mamo Pay, both you and your friend will receive AED 5 each. For every 10 people you refer, you'll receive an additional bonus of AED 100. For example, if you refer:
The program is valid all throughout the month of March 2021. So anyone you send money to until 31 March 2021 will be considered your referral, even if they claim the money in April.
You simply have to send any amount of money to someone who isn’t already on Mamo Pay. On your app, you can see who from your contacts is already on Mamo and who isn’t, so when you send money to someone who isn’t, they’ll receive a link via SMS or email letting them know you’ve sent money.
Based on the number of referrals each week, your referral rewards will be added to your Mamo wallet. This will be done every Monday.
Transfers are instant between Mamo Pay users.
Unfortunately, due restrictions imposed by banks we are unable to process withdrawals below AED 100. This is a little annoying for us too, we are working with banks to see if this can actually be resolved but for now please kindly make sure withdrawals are greater than AED 100. Please email us on support@mamopay.com from the email address linked to your Mamo Pay account.
Please ensure that you are sending money to the right person. The safest way to do this is to grant Mamo Pay access to your phone contacts while sending money. If a payment has unintentionally been sent to the wrong person Mamo Pay will try its best to request the respondent to return the money, but we cannot guarantee that they will agree. Please email us on support@mamopay.com from the email address linked to your Mamo Pay account.
Adding and withdrawing money from your Mamo Pay wallet is completely free.
