Bureau Services

As a BACS approved bureau, APS can perform a key role for you in managing your BACS payments/collections by automating the process from file generation, to submission, and returning your reports. All without the requirement of a smartcard.

What is a BACS Bureau?

If you want to gain control over your payment collections, appointing a BACS approved bureau to manage them for you will revolutionise your accounting systems.

Being a BACS approved bureau enables us to send payments through BACS software on your behalf. You export a payment file, submit this to us via email, SFTP, our online portal, or our API, and we then submit it to BACS on your behalf. This debits a lump sum out of your business bank account without any direct interaction needed with the bank. To do this, you need to sign-up to receive a SUN (service user number) from your bank.

Introducing Direct Debit to your organisation will bring your business up-to-date with the latest technology. APS bureau can be integrated with applications such as Xero and Sage to improve efficiency and minimise unnecessary administration.

We offer our BACS Approved Bureau Services to organisations in all industries. If you have your own Service User Number (SUN) or are in the process of obtaining one, we can help with processing your Direct Debit and/or Direct Credit Payments.

Direct Debits, Paperless & AUDDIS

Direct Debit is a simple, secure and convenient payment method that allows businesses and organisations to automatically collect recurring payments from a payer’s bank account with their prior authorisation. Often used for bills, subscriptions, and memberships, Direct Debit streamlines the payment process by reducing the risk of late or missed payments, offering payers a hassle-free experience while providing businesses with improved cash flow and reduced administrative work.

Direct Credits

BACS Direct Credit enables businesses, large and small, to make payments by electronic transfer directly into bank or building society accounts. It’s simple, secure, and reliable, and it reduces the time and costs associated with traditional methods of payment processing.

The difference between Direct Debit and Direct Credit for businesses is the difference between requesting payments from people who owe you (Direct Debit) and making payments to people you owe (Direct Credit).
