Getting started

1. Register

When you register to use Batch Payments, you will be asked for some basic information about your business so we can set you up on the Batch system. We will check whether you have a valid SAN or GLN (a code that identifies your business to all the suppliers); if you don't, we can help you to get one.

2. Select your suppliers

When you have started the registration process, we will send you a link to an online form where you can tell us which publishers and distributors you would like to deal with through Batch. We will take the invoices from those suppliers and put them on your Batch account. When we see there are transactions appearing, we will send you a link to the BatchOne login portal from where you will have access to all your financial information 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year.

3. Authorise your first payments

Batch puts you in charge: select which suppliers to pay and authorise the amount three days before the deadline for payment. (The Authorisation Deadlines are in a box on our Home page.) Make one payment a month per currency to pay all your invoices.
