Monoova and PayTo

PayTo

PayTo is the newest type of digital payment from Australian Payments Plus (AP+), and Monoova is the most experienced PayTo provider in the country.

But what exactly is PayTo? In its simplest form, PayTo is the real-time digital successor to direct debits. It’s a modern account-to-account payment solution that delivers more security, more transparency and more successful transactions with fewer disputes. It delivers funds settled and cleared to your account in seconds for a low fixed fee per transaction.

Monoova is your PayTo go-to! As the first payments provider to deliver PayTo at scale, we’re responsible for the majority of all PayTo agreements across Australia.* Our team of experts is here to help you keep payments flowing and business on track.

Smarter than traditional

At Monoova, we're all about giving your business and your customers options. From traditional direct debit to PayTo, we've got you covered.

PayTo can be used for one-off, ad-hoc and recurring payments. It’s card-on-file payments without card surcharge. It’s direct debit with more flex and less expense, and minus the complications of dishonours and payment delays. It’s all in real time.

More than simply a smarter way to get paid, you can use PayTo to efficiently handle your own bill payments, corporate payroll and accounts payable as well.

Payments with benefits for you and your customers

benefits for you and your customers

For business, PayTo delivers

  • Real-time payments
  • Instant account validation on new agreements
  • Real-time sufficient funds check
  • Instant notifications of payment failures and updates
  • Fewer errors and exceptions
  • Automated reconciliation
  • Fixed fee per transaction pricing

And your customers can

  • Enjoy a fee-free payment option
  • Access and manage payment agreements in their existing bank apps
  • Set up new payments easily
  • View and track transactions
  • Rely on consistent payment dates (even on weekends and public holidays)
  • Avoid dishonour fees
The key benefit of PayTo is that cash flow component. When you do card payments it's real-time status, but the funds arrive sometime later. With PayTo you send through the request, you receive and approve PayTo transactions, you get the funding within the next couple seconds or so. That flow of funds is crucial for any business.

Transition before bank transfers and direct debit are retired.

Transition

The BECS (direct entry) system has been serving us well but it is set to be retired in 2030. Now is the time to start switching your customers to PayTo and NPP. Monoova can help you make the transition smoothly.

With Monoova you can continue to offer the payment methods that your customers know and trust (e.g., direct debits and BPAY) while – in parallel – begin the work of moving to better options (e.g., PayTo and PayIDs). Move at the pace that works for you and your customers.

We know PayTo, NPP and PayIDs inside-out and will guide you through. Experts in PayTo, we're ready to help you create the best payment solution for your business.
