PSID Generation - Required for Online Payment

PSID (Payment Slip ID) is a unique 17-digit reference number required for paying Punjab e challans online. It acts as a bridge between your challan and payment system.

How to Generate PSID

Step 1: Download ePay Punjab App

Install ePay Punjab from Google Play Store or Apple App Store. This is the official Government of Punjab payment gateway app.

Step 2: Open Traffic Challan Section

Launch app → Select "Traffic Challan / Safe City" from main menu → Choose "Generate PSID" option.

Step 3: Enter Challan Details

You can generate PSID using any one of these:

  • Challan Number: From PSCA portal or SMS notification
  • Vehicle Number + CNIC: System fetches all pending challans
  • Vehicle Number only: For quick PSID generation
Step 4: Select Challans to Pay

If multiple challans exist, select which ones to pay now. You can pay all together or one at a time. System calculates total amount including late fees if applicable.

Step 5: Generate PSID

Click "Generate Payment ID" button. System creates unique 17-digit PSID valid for 48 hours. Note down or screenshot this PSID - you'll need it for all payment methods.

💡 Important: One PSID can include multiple challans. PSID expires after 48 hours or after successful payment. Generate new PSID if expired.
