# Verifying Telebirr Payments

> Step-by-step guide for Telebirr (Ethio Telecom)

## Required fields

| Field                | Example             |
| -------------------- | ------------------- |
| `bank`               | `telebirr`          |
| `transaction_number` | `MP250610123456789` |

Telebirr does **not** require `account_number` - the transaction number alone is sufficient.

## Finding the transaction number

In the Telebirr app, open the transaction → **Share** button → the share URL contains the reference. You can also copy the reference from the SMS confirmation.

## Example

```bash theme={null}
curl -X POST https://api.check.et/api/v1/verify \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer chk_xxx" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "bank": "telebirr",
    "transaction_number": "MP250610123456789"
  }'
```

## Via receipt URL

Telebirr share links are fully supported:

```bash theme={null}
curl -X POST https://api.check.et/api/v1/verify \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer chk_xxx" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "receipt_url": "https://apps.ethiotelecom.et/receipt/..."
  }'
```
