FAQs Section – Addressing Common Concerns
What is the payment collection process for businesses?
The payment collection for businesses depends on the form of payment used. Online payments and SEPA direct debit payments, for example, involve a cardholder (the customer), the merchant (your business), an acquirer (the payment processor), and the bank (the sender/receiver of the transaction funds).
When the customer agrees to a transaction, the merchant and acquirer pass the transaction through a payment gateway to authorise the transaction and to check for fraudulent activity. If successful, the acquirer communicates with the bank to send/receive the funds of the transaction.
Which forms of payment can my business accept?
Businesses in Ireland can accept payments through many methods. Common examples include cash, direct debit, SEPA transactions, contactless tap and mobile phone, vouchers and gift cards, international credit card, buy now pay later, financing, mobile wallet, cryptocurrency, and more.
Flexipay’s payment collection platform facilitates the reconciliation of payments for both business owners and customers alike. Business owners can select which forms of payment they wish to accept and easily integrate them into their online shop and/or POS terminal.
How secure is payment collection?
It depends on the form of payment you and the customer agree upon. Cash notes and coins have carrying risks in the event of a burglary, whereas digital forms of payment and direct debit are much more secure. Collecting direct debits from customers is highly secure. Although there is a risk for customers via contactless debit payment if the card is stolen and used fraudulently, Ireland’s daily contactless card limit is €50 which reduces the severity for the customer.
Digital forms of payment and financing payment instalments handled by trustworthy third parties such as Stripe are highly secure for business owners.
