BPAY is a fast, safe and easy method of payment commonly used to pay bills or any other payments and can be made with more than 150 financial institutions across Australia. BPAY enables bill payers to transfer funds electronically from their account to the billers as long as the recipient is a BPAY registered institution.
With BPAY your business can accept payments using BPAY Payins. You can also use BPAY Payout to facilitate payments to suppliers and partners connected to your platform. Unique, branded Biller Codes make it easy to recognise payment sources.
Some common use cases for BPAY Payout include PropertyTech platforms, where landlords on the platform use BPAY Payout to pay the water utility company for a property’s water bill.
- Businesses using SaaS accounting software can make bill payments to other small and medium enterprises (SMEs) for goods or services provided.
BPAY PayIns offers your customers an easy and safe way to make payments directly from their bank account to your business. All they need is the branded biller code and a Customer Reference Number (CRN) which identifies the payer and their payment, both provided to you by Zai.
All you need to do is to add these to your communications with customers. Zai sends 3 daily notifications to update you when a payment is on its way.
By enabling BPAY Payouts on your platform, your end-users can make a bill payment directly from within your platform to their intended biller. The transaction is completed entirely on your platform. This vastly improves the customer experience, since end-users are not redirected to their Bank’s website to make the bill payments.
BPAY is known and loved by Australians of all ages and is the most popular method of paying household bills in Australia, so your paying customers will be familiar with it and comfortable using it, with minimal need for explanation and support. The control a customer gets from being able to check their balance and push the payment when they are ready can give them a lot more confidence in the payment process.
Additionally, Zai automatically matches inbound payment with the associated request for payment resulting in minimal exceptions. This improves reconciliation and reduces delays and associated costs.
Funds also clear with no risk of chargebacks as the vast majority of BPAY payments are funded via everyday savings and transaction accounts, not credit cards. Due to the reduced risks associated with BPAY payments they have lower fees making BPAY ideal for billers who are expecting higher value payments from customers.
When you integrate with Zai's BPAY, automation will do the work for you. We issue you with a unique Biller Code, (e.g Your Business Name) and Assembly’s API generates a Customer Reference Number (CRN) which is used by the customer when paying their bill.
BPAY payments are only processed on banking business days with a cutoff time of 5pm to 6pm on weekdays. If the payment is made before cutoff time, billers receive their funds on the next banking business day.
Zai sends 3 notifications per day notifying you when a payment is on it’s way. While this may suit some business models, more immediate payment methods are available to enhance customer experience such as real time payments. Credit cards are another alternative form of payment to BPAY.
BPAY is one of the most widely used bill payment services in Australia. It is an easy, fast and safe way for users to pay their bills by transferring funds electronically from their bank accounts to billers such as the city council, local utility service providers and businesses that accept BPAY as a form of payment.
BPAY payments have a range of characteristics that mean they are lower in risk than credit card payments and direct debit payments.
