AutoPay – Direct Debit Management Software
Create SEPA Compliant XML files for Direct Debits & Credit Transfers
Overview
AutoPay will allow your business to collect Direct Debits or process bulk Credit Transfer payments in conjunction with your bank. Currently used by over 400 organisations, it is the most widely used system in Ireland and is compatible with all European banks.
The SEPA Direct Debit Scheme (Single European Payments Area) is a European standard for the collection of Direct Debits and the processing of bulk Credit payments. Most Banks offer business customers the facility to collect payments by Direct Debit. Direct Debits are submitted to each bank electronically using XML files which are a standard file format accepted by all European banks.
AutoPay will allow you to process the required transactions and create an XML file which can be sent to your bank for processing. This makes the management of Direct Debits a simple task.
AutoPay also allows you to setup regular schedules of customers to process (e.g. Monthly) with fixed amounts.

Testimonials
Direct Debit allows us to offer our customers a more attractive means to pay for their advertising. When we were ready to start processing Direct Debits, SEPA was just coming about and we opted to start with SEPA, rather than have to make the changeover later. The AutoPay software met all of our requirements and Mercury Software made it very easy for us to get up and running.
We are a membership organisation and AutoPay has facilitated the collection of our members’ fees hugely. The software is really easy to use, and whenever we have needed some support the Mercury Software team has always been there promptly for us.
The AutoPay application has given us the ability to streamline payments out to suppliers and in from customers. Payment of suppliers in a bulk file format allows easier validation and speeds up the payment process greatly. Taking payment from customers by Direct Debit gives us better control over cashflow and credit limits. I would highly recommend the AutoPay application as a means to achieving this functionality and we have been very pleased with the level of support and advice offered by Mark and his team.
We offer our customers the option to pay their annual maintenance and monitoring charge by Direct Debit which helps to reduce the burden on our customers and it also gives us a competitive advantage. It also helps to reduce our costs in terms of issuing statements and debt collection. The AutoPay software makes the process very simple and efficient – we can process our monthly Direct Debit run in a matter of minutes.
