How will Text Payments benefit your organisation?
Providing customers with the flexibility to make payments in this way may help your organisation meet e-government targets for payment service accessibility. It would also put you in tune with the people who matter – your customers.
You’ll also benefit from having all transactional data made available the next working day over allpay’s secure web-based communication portal, Webconnect.
Why do customers want to text their payments?
Your customers are increasingly familiar with this form of communication.
5000 text messages are sent every second in the UK and over 75% of the UK adult population now own a mobile phone.*
To text a bill payment is now, for many customers, the height of convenience.
With allpay this method of communication is now a very real bill payment option for your customers.

How it works…
To begin texting bill payments, your customers simply need a UK-registered mobile phone, a valid allpay swipecard or barcoded bill and a current debit or credit card (debit card only if preferred).
After a very brief registration online at https://www.allpayments.net/textpay, your customers can pay their bills anytime, anyplace, anywhere – quite literally!
They text a simple code and the amount they wish to pay to a designated number every time they want to make a payment.
This service works in complete harmony with all other payment methods from allpay and is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
allpay provides us with various payment methods which we can offer our wide range of clients. This is vital because the more methods we can offer, the more income we are likely to receive.
