Collection and Reconciliation
An important distinguishing element of Docdata Payments' service offering is its capability to fully reconcile payments to individual merchant order information. Docdata Payments is a collecting payment service provider which means that Docdata Payments is not only technically processing payments, but is also collecting merchant funds, reconciling these funds before they are settled to the merchant.
When accepting payments that are made through different payment methods, supported by different financial institutions in different countries, you will receive settlements in different currencies, at different times, accompanied by different reports in different technical formats. Reconciling this information with the order information that you have stored in your order systems, implies the use of a large part of your financial and administrative resources.
The business benefits of Docdata Payments collection and reconciliation services are:
- One single settlement flow for all orders, independent of the payment method that the end customer has used;
- One single settlement flow for all your sales channels, (web, call centre, mail order), countries, products, etc.;
- One reporting format for all of your online sales transactions;
- Online access to real-time financial information, using the financial reporting interface of Docdata Payments;
- The financial information and payment status information can be sent to the merchants in a variety of technical formats which can automatically be uploaded to the merchant’s accounting systems, thus further automating the reconciliation functionality within the merchant’s order-to-cash process;
- Possibility to create reports and download reports from the financial reporting interface;
All the above mentioned business benefits translate in large cost- and time savings.
