Accept EFTs from any bank with Netcash

Bank EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer) is a familiar, yet manual, online payment method. Customers can make secure payments directly from their bank account online or offline to your Netcash account, providing an essential B2C and B2B payment option for your business. Your Netcash account is bank agnostic, so payments are cleared, paid, and reconciled into your account at the same fee and timing, regardless of which bank they originate from.

How does it work

With Netcash, you can accept EFTs from all major banks, reconciled into one account, on one statement. 

At checkout, customers select the Bank EFT option as their preferred payment method.

They will be shown your Netcash account’s EFT details and a payment reference number to use.

Customers will login to their online banking app, or if preferred, take these details to a branch to make payment offline.

The customer will then make payment using the details provided, and once successfully processed, you will be notified via SMS or Email that payment has been received.

Note that Bank EFT payments may take more than 24 hours to be made and settled, depending on how soon the customer makes payment.
