FAQs - Administration
How easy is it to administer paperless Direct Debiting?
It’s very simple because there’s so little to do. Firstly, payers are signed up which can be done in one of three ways:
- By completing the paper mandate form and adding the name, address and bank details to our online administration service.
- Over the phone by keying direct into our online service.
- On your website, where the payer keys in the data themselves.
If the collection amount is fixed, we can then begin Direct Debiting right away and forward any relevant reports to you. If the amounts vary each month, they can be keyed onto our online system. The process can be partially or fully automated.
