Overview

Paysoft Flow automates EFT payments and debit order collections while keeping your Xero accounting up to date in real time.

Eliminate manual payment processing, double capturing and reconciliation. Every transaction processed through Paysoft Flow automatically syncs with Xero, giving you faster payments, cleaner books and more time to focus on your business.

Proud Xero App of the Year Finalist in both 2024 and 2025.

EFT Payments

Pay suppliers, employees and SARS securely using Same Day or 1-Day EFT payments.

Simply sync your Bills awaiting payment from Xero, select the invoices to pay and submit a single payment batch. Paysoft Flow distributes the funds, emails proof of payment with remittance advice to suppliers, and automatically reconciles each bill back into Xero. A payment transaction is created in your connected Xero bank account, making bank reconciliation effortless.

Payroll payments can be uploaded directly from SimplePay or PaySpace CSV files, or submitted via API for complete automation.

Every payment is validated using real-time Check Digit Validation (CDV), verifying account numbers and branch codes before submission to reduce failed payments, rejected transactions and unnecessary bank charges.

Debit Order Collections

Collect recurring customer payments quickly and securely from all major South African banks.

Create and send Digital E-Mandates directly to your Xero contacts for secure electronic authorisation, eliminating paper mandates entirely. Once authorised, collections can be scheduled automatically with no manual intervention.

CDV validates banking details before every collection, reducing failed debit orders and the administration that follows. Debit order transactions are automatically reconciled and de-reconciled in Xero.

Paysoft Flow + Xero

Xero Integration Contacts

Paysoft Flow provides seamless two-way synchronisation with Xero Contacts.

Using the Sync function, all contact information is imported from your connected Xero organisation into Paysoft Flow. Banking details are intentionally excluded and managed securely within Paysoft Flow to reduce risk and maintain banking data integrity.

Banking details can be updated individually or in bulk within Paysoft Flow. Any changes made to contact information are automatically synchronised back to Xero.

Payments

Once connected to a Xero organisation, Paysoft Flow imports all Bills Awaiting Payment directly from Xero using the Sync button under Payments.

The following are not synchronised:

Draft Bills Bills Awaiting Approval Credit Notes

Select multiple bills from one or many suppliers and create a single payment batch. Supplier banking details must be captured within Paysoft Flow before payments can be processed.

After the batch has been approved, simply transfer the total batch value from your bank account to one of Paysoft Flow's accredited trust accounts.

Once the funds have cleared, Paysoft Flow will:

Distribute payments to each supplier. Email Proof of Payment together with a detailed remittance advice. Automatically reconcile all paid bills in your connected Xero organisation.

At the same time, Paysoft Flow creates a matching payment transaction in the selected Xero bank account, allowing you to reconcile the outgoing bank transaction with a single click.

Collections

Manage recurring collections directly from your Xero customer base.

Paysoft Flow enables you to:

Create and send Digital E-Mandates to contacts synced from Xero. Schedule recurring debit order collections. Automatically reconcile successful collections in Xero. Automatically de-reconcile returned or unpaid debit orders, ensuring your accounting records remain accurate.

Reliable, efficient, and great support!

Paysoft Flow has become an essential part of our month-end process for managing debit orders and payments across our accounts. The Xero integration takes a lot of the manual admin out of reconciliation, invoices are matched automatically once payments come through, which saves us significant time and reduces the risk of errors during our billing runs. Paying our creditors has also become so much simpler. We can settle multiple invoices from different suppliers in one batch, and the automatic POP emails mean neither we nor our creditors have to chase up proof of payment afterwards. It's a small thing that makes a big difference to the overall admin load on both sides. The CDV pre-validation on bank accounts has also helped cut down on returned or rejected debit orders, and having batch reports available makes it easy to track what's succeeded and what still needs attention. What really stands out, though, is the support. Whenever we've run into sync issues or had questions ahead of a debit order run, the team has been quick to respond and genuinely helpful in resolving things. It's reassuring to know there's a responsive team behind the platform. Overall, Paysoft Flow has made our payment and collections administration far more efficient, and we'd happily recommend it to any business looking to streamline this side of their operations.

Paysoft Flow Review

We have been using Paysoft Flow for quite some time now, and we can confidently say that it has made a significant difference to the way we manage our payment administration. The support we have received has been excellent. They are always quick to assist whenever we have needed help. The app is also incredibly user-friendly and easy to navigate, making our payment and debit order administration much simpler, faster, and more efficient. We are very happy with our experience and would highly recommend Paysoft Flow to any business!

Cannot recommend more!

PaySoft Flow has tremendously helped our clients strengthen their approval processes by introducing clear workflows, accountability, and better governance across transactions. It really helped reducing risk and improving control, and limited users to having access to bank accounts. At the same time, it has created significant efficiencies through automation, faster turnaround times, and reduced manual intervention, also leading to greater accuracy. Support is always on the ball with great turnaround times and the team is always super helpful. Our clients use it for payments, whilst we internally also use it for debit orders - success all around
