allpay Limited launches Open Banking and Confirmation of Payee, for its Banking cardholder customers

Share this post

allpay are delighted to announce the launch of their Confirmation of Payee solution. Built inhouse, the technology will allow the Hereford based payment service provider’s 16,000 Banking Lite cardholders to benefit from the Open Banking ecosystem.

Customers have the option to link their allpay prepaid account to other banks, building societies and financial service providers. They can also utilise budgeting tool apps allowing them to view balances, make payments and share transaction data. As part of the wider financial inclusion initiative, customers can access credit and debt advice or financial advice making banking in general simpler, quicker, and more convenient.

As an additional fraud prevention measure, allpay are also introducing Confirmation of Payee (CoP) to its Prepaid service.
With APP fraud, now worth an estimated £500m, CoP will allow customers of participating Banks, Building Societies and Credit Unions to double-check, ahead of making a payment, that the account holder’s name matches the owner of the bank account number.

CoP checks will become an integral part of allpay’s service when making a payment on behalf of its cardholders and will be further introduced to allpay’s UK based contact centre which takes an estimated £1 million of payments each year.

allpay’s have also developed a SaaS solution which will be available to eligible participants.

With the heart of allpay’s business built around its ability to create leading payments products in-house and deliver these without the reliance on partnerships or third-party providers, the Confirmation of Payee product will be used to support eligible participants.

I didn't receive an e-mail

Tip: Check your spam

Sometimes our e-mails end up in spam. Make sure to check your spam folder for e-mails from The Payments Association

Tip: Check “other” tabs

Most modern e-mail clients now separate e-mails into different tabs. For example, Outlook has an “Other” tab, and Gmail has tabs for different types of e-mails, such as promotional.

Tip: Click the link within 60 minutes

For security reasons the link will expire after 60 minutes. Try submitting the login form again and wait a few seconds for the e-mail to arrive.

Tip: Only click once

The link will only work one time – once it’s been clicked, the link won’t log you in again. Instead, you’ll need to go back to the login screen and generate a new link.

Tip: Delete old login e-mails

Make sure you’re clicking the link on the most recent e-mail that’s been sent to you. We recommend deleting the e-mail once you’ve clicked the link.

Tip: Check your security policies

Some security systems will automatically click on links in e-mails to check for phishing, malware, viruses and other malicious threats. If these have been clicked, it won’t work when you try to click on the link.

Need to change your e-mail address?

For security reasons, e-mail address changes can only be complete by your Member Engagement Manager. Please contact the team directly for further help.
