Request for payment

The request for payment functionality is available in select countries. It offers a way to request funds from debtors and allows those debtors to receive and act on requests. This can help increase efficiency with reconciliation while improving your working capital over time. When used with Real-Time Payments, it also offers instant acknowledgment of associated payments, with increased AR/AP efficiencies. The benefits of this functionality include:

 

  • Improved working capital by reducing late payments 
  • Streamlined invoicing and reconciliation processes  
  • Enhanced transparency on bill payments

 

Innovations that are available with some schemes include alias registration and routing, QR code generation and scanning, and eCommerce integration. These services ease payment burdens and enhance the customer experience.
