Debit order systems that simplify business processes

Direct Debit is a debit order collection company that provides comprehensive billing solutions to businesses of all sizes who are looking for a direct and professional collection channel.

Direct Debit provides clients with a direct debit order facility at the bank, where each client get their own bank account and can view what comes in and goes out of the account at any point in time. This provides our clients with substantially more transparency as to what is actually paid, unpaid, disputed and the fees billed.

Our direct debit order facilities are plugged in directly to Bankserv where you will be able to collect your funds on your own user code and reference, as well as get faster reconciliation of the successful, unpaid or disputed transactions.

Direct Debit provides debit order systems which assist businesses in the management of their debit order collection facilities. We have created our own payment systems and integrated with popular billing solutions to assist you in invoicing, management of clients and automation of your debit order batches.

Most collection bureaus only have one system available which is the simple file upload system. Using this system, you have to create an excel spreadsheet with your client’s banking details and submit the file for the specific day on a specific time to the bureau system.

Updating and changing the spreadsheet can take some time and forgetting to submit certain files on specific times can be a daunting and frustrating task all on its own.

Direct Debit introduces a number of systems that can automate the submission of debit orders and reconcile the payments to invoices to get rid of the headaches of forgetting and needing to change spreadsheets and manually reconcile each client’s account.

Debit order systems available at Direct Debit include the following:
