I paid the ₦2,000 at a bank branch with my Remita invoice, but my acknowledgement card is not showing yet. What should I do?

If you paid at a bank branch, log back into the BUK portal and click the 'check your payment' button so the system can verify your Remita payment and unlock your acknowledgement card for printing.
