Payment Timings
Direct Debit
The Direct Debit cycle can be confusing if you aren't used to it, so lets break it down.
Example: For a collection Due on Wednesday
Monday: The latest the collection information can be sent to the banks
Tuesday: Direct Debit is logged to be collected
Wednesday: Direct Debit collected from customers bank account and we receive the funds
Thursday: Failures are then applied and money is taken back by the banks
Friday: We settle with you on a next day payment

Card Payments (Via PayPal)
Card payments are instant, whether that's for a one off collection or a subscription. Therefore for a collection on Wednesday, the request would be submitted at around 8am and the success/failure response will be immediate. The money is then cleared in your bank account 2-3 working days later.
