Lloyds is the first major UK bank to launch a mobile app feature which allows cash to be paid in at over 30,000 convenient locations nationwide, using a barcode.
Lloyds Bank has announced a UK banking first from August 26 – with customers set to reap the benefits. Lloyds is the first major UK bank to launch a mobile app feature which allows cash to be paid in at over 30,000 convenient locations nationwide, using a barcode.
Available from 26 August, customers can go into the ‘Everyday’ area in their app, to generate a barcode. This can then be scanned at over 30,000 PayPoint locations across the UK, with over 94% of PayPoint sites open seven days a week.
Customers will be able to pay in up to £300 per day in notes and coins, up to a maximum of £600 a month, with the barcode valid for two hours. With 99.5% of people living within a mile of a PayPoint store, they provide a convenient way to take care of many everyday errands. From returning or collecting parcels, to paying bills, buying gift cards or topping up a mobile phone.

Customers can find their nearest PayPoint location using the Lloyds app or on the PayPoint website. Customers can continue to use branches of Lloyds, Halifax and Bank of Scotland to pay in cash quickly and easily, though.
And account holders can use Lloyds cash in and out machines located across the country, too. Customers can also visit a Banking Hub, available nationwide, which has counter services run by the Post Office.
They can also use 11,500 Post Offices across the UK to do their everyday banking, including paying in or withdrawing cash, the banking group has said.
Gabby Collins, payments director at Lloyds, said: “We’re always looking for smart ways to make banking more flexible and give customers more choice.
“Our latest app feature now allows customers to pay in cash at their local PayPoint in just a few minutes – ideal if they are popping in for milk or dropping off a parcel. With this new innovation, no other UK bank offers as many ways to manage money as Lloyds.”
Nick Wiles, CEO, PayPoint, said: “Our leading retail network provides a vast range of essential services at the heart of communities across the UK, for everything from banking, utility, parcel, cash and government services.
