Businesses take on new features, new technology, new customers and new ideas at a rapid rate. It’s the only way you can survive in any industry. The problem is however, that all this expanding is making everything seem stressful. Even something as straightforward as making payments. If you have a fair number of employees and other outgoing payments then it can become hassle doing everything yourself. You could be making over a hundred payments on a regular basis and need to able to manage cash flow and eliminate human error. As you know, or at least should know, there is an answer.
BACS, or Bankers’ automated clearing services as it was originally named back in 1968, refers to the electronic automated payments by which 95% of UK Payments are made. As the name suggests it sends and receives payments automatically, on schedule and very easily. Originally, payments were made and initiated manually. However, BACS allows you to authorise regular payments so you no longer need to lift a finger to meet them. The owner of the account can authorise the payments and have them taken out of their account automatically on the same day of every month so there are no surprises. There are also no surprises when it comes to changes in policy or amount you will be instantly notified and given an option to proceed or cancel the payments. BACS automated payments can be ended at any point.
Almost all UK employees are being paid via an automated payments transfer due to the simple benefits and use of the service. All the employer needs is the banking information of the employer for the first payment and they can then set up a payroll profile that includes all the data needed to calculate the payment. With the protocols set, the payments can be made automatically at an agreed date and amount. Payroll cheques are not needed and waiting for the cheques to clear electronically takes 3 days. To enter, process and clear it.
There are many benefits to the use of this system. The most obvious being that you no longer need to write out all those cheques by hand. It involves very little paperwork as it is just simply a number on your bank statement. Also, the service is highly secure and the automated payments system BACS, has a record of no errors since it was created in 1968. So overall the system is fast, simple and reliable.
