PayTo use cases

The New Payments Platform Australia designed PayTo to offer a wide range of use cases across industries accepting digital payments. Use it for accounts payable and receivable, recurring e-invoices, QR-code payments, online marketplace purchases or one-off e-commerce sales. Here’s how you can use PayTo:

One-off or recurring online payment arrangements

Get multiple ways of paying and customisation with PayTo. Choose ad-hoc, recurring or one-off payment agreements by controlling the authorisation timeframes used. Base personalised authorisation timeframes on minutes, hours or days so you can tailor the timeframe to suit your billing model.

PayTo also empowers your customers to manage purchases the way they want. The agreement duration (for recurring payments only) and the payment initiation date are always in their hands. Customers now have greater visibility and control than with cards or direct debits.
