SEPA Direct Debit¶
SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area) is a payment-integration initiative of the European Union that facilitates standardized and simplified electronic payments in euros across participating countries.
SEPA Direct Debit (SDD) is a payment provider that allows future payments to be collected from customers’ bank accounts based on a signed SEPA Direct Debit mandate. This mandate authorizes the recipient to automatically initiate one-time or recurring payments using SDD.

Online payments with SDD¶
Customers selecting SDD as a payment method are prompted to enter their IBAN to complete the SEPA Direct Debit mandate.
The SDD mandate is then automatically created in Draft based on the provided IBAN. To validate the information, customers must confirm each new mandate with a successful bank transfer of the expected amount using the specified payment reference (communication). Once this initial payment is received and reconciled, the mandate is automatically validated and updated to the Active status. Once a mandate is active, it is reused for all subsequent payments made with the SDD payment method. You can then collect them by uploading them to your online banking interface.
