How do Debit Orders work?
Debit Order Setup
The account holder authorises the service provider in writing or electronically to deduct agreed payments from their bank account.
Payment Processing
The service provider uses a bank or third-party processor like Netcash to deduct the agreed amount of money from the account holder's bank account.
Cancellation Rights
Either party has the right to cancel the debit order, but this does not cancel the terms of the sale or service provided.

FAQs
What does it cost to run debit orders for my business?
The cost of debit orders depends on the number of customers you’re collecting from and the specific services you use. Contact Netcash for the most up-to-date rates and a custom quote tailored to your needs.

No – Netcash’s debit order system is completely cloud-based and web-accessible from any computer or mobile device. Instant setup means there’s no need for software installs or complex training. Support and quick-start guides are available to help you onboard smoothly.
Do debit orders incur bank fees?
Yes. Bank fees for debit orders vary from bank to bank – some charge a flat monthly fee, while others charge per transaction processed. These are separate from Netcash’s service fees.
What is the difference between a debit order and a stop order?
A stop order is a scheduled payment you set up directly through your bank, such as rent. A debit order, on the other hand, is initiated by an external party—like a business or service provider and automatically debited from your account with your permission.
What is the difference between Same-day and Two-day debit orders?
A Two-day debit order is a standard debit order processed on weekdays (Monday to Friday), with an authorisation cut-off time of two days before the action date. The funds are debited and available on the requested action date. A Same-day debit order is a premium service processed Monday to Saturday, with an authorisation cut-off time on the action date. The funds are debited on the same day but will reflect in the customer’s account on the following working day. Contact us for more information on our services.
