Xero Bill Payments can help your business

Overview

Xero makes it easy to manage, approve pay bills. Select the bills you want to pay using direct bank transfer, and authorise the batch payment directly from your banking app or online banking. Funds are transferred from your bank account by Crezco using open banking - it's all about making life easier and saving time on your accounts payable.

  • Pay multiple bills: Bulk pay bills in a single batch, and save time paying each bill separately or exporting a payment file. Consolidate the bills owed to a single supplier into one convenient batch payment in Xero.

  • Payment approval workflow: Allow employees or your advisor to help prepare bills for payment then handover to you for the final review and payment authentication, maintaining full control over your bank account.

  • Schedule payments: Schedule bills to be paid at a future date. Avoid potential bank charges for same day transactions, missing due dates and manage what comes out of your bank account and precisely when it does.

  • Multi-factor authentication (MFA): Authorise all payments from Xero using multi-factor authentication providing peace of mind that your financial data and money is protected. In addition, if Confirmation of Payee is enabled by your bank, your supplier's banking details will be verified before any funds leave your account.

  • Real-time payment status: View the status of your payments at any time without needing to log in to your bank account. You can also see an overview of all bill payments made using direct bank transfer giving you an accurate, digital record of which suppliers have been paid and when.

Bill payments is available on Xero UK-based Business Edition subscriptions. There are no monthly subscription fees, only pay when you select direct bank transfer as the payment method.

Note: We recommend checking with your financial institution to see if open banking is supported, and if there are any banking rules or restrictions on the type of account or payment limits that may apply.

Efficient and straight forward

Great addition to the app eco system making it simple to push payments to the bank directly from Xero. This consolidated accounts payable processes for a number of my clients reducing time to pay suppliers and update the associated bookkeeping records merging the process to a single workflow.

Quick & Easy to Use

This new integrated feature has streamlined the payment runs for our clients and means everything can be done within Xero. This makes the whole process really efficient and easy. There is a bit of set up to get going but worth persevering with this to get things up and running!

Quick and Easy Bill Payments within Xero

Requires a setup initially but once it's running, this is an amazing process. Easy and quick to use, no need to leave Xero to make the payment or try to integrate other external software. It has the ability to prepare the payment for someone with bank authority to then approve, so great for bookkeepers helping clients have one thing less to do in their busy work schedule. Highly recommend getting this up and running!
