Instantly collect an upfront payment, and setup a Direct Debit mandate, in one smooth flow.

Direct Debit is great for business services firms to collect recurring payments from a client, but it can’t instantly process an upfront payment. Which leaves them relying on admin-heavy bank transfers.

With Instant Bank Pay, your users can offer a simple payment flow that takes an instantly-authorised, one-off payment. Either standalone, or together with a Direct Debit mandate setup.
