All the above confidential data are encrypted between you and CIB by implementing end-to-end encryption. Thus, InstaPay has no access, rights or ability to obtain or store such confidential data.

IPA stands for Instant Payment Address. It is a simplified address for your account, which can be used to send and receive cash transfers instead of a full bank account number or card details. Think of it as an email address that can be used to transfer money.
IPN allows customers to send money to any of the following:
- Bank accounts using:
- Account number
- Mobile number (for IPN on-boarded customers only)
- IPA (Instant Payment Address for on-boarded customers only)
- Digital wallets (using mobile number)
- Meeza cards (using 16-digit card number)
You can send money using one of the following beneficiary’s details:
- Instant Payment Address (IPA)
- Mobile number registered with IPN
- Digital wallet using mobile number
- Bank account number or IBAN
- Debit, credit or prepaid card from a member bank using a 16-digit number
The money you will receive will be sent to your chosen default account.
Each app allows you to create one IPA for each account, which means you can have any number of IPAs based on the number of accounts you have at different banks and the number of IPN apps used.
InstaPay is guided by data integrity and purpose limitation principles. The app collects data mainly for two purposes:
- Building your profile during the registration process, where the collected data is limited to name, date of birth, gender, email and mobile number
- Processing transactions after collecting the transaction value and the beneficiary’s name
In all cases, no confidential data is collected by InstaPay.
It is a money transfer request sent to an IPN user through their IPA or mobile number.
The request can be accepted or declined by the user.
IPN PIN is a 6-digit number that is set by the customer per account upon successfully adding new accounts. IPN PIN is used for authenticating all transactions performed on the IPN network.
If the transaction status on InstaPay is “successful,” this means that the amount was successfully credited to the beneficiary’s account. Please provide the beneficiary with the transaction’s reference number to check the issue with their bank.
All your bank accounts and Meeza prepaid card funds belonging to one of the network’s banks.
