Paying, and what happens after

Paying, and what happens after

Paying from your own bank with Akahu, paying on site, and where the order goes.

01Three ways to pay

A business chooses which of these it takes. Both Akahu options move the money from your own bank account, so there are no card fees, and both need a signed in account.

Pay now
Charged to your Akahu enduring payment consent, with no redirect. The first time you choose Pay now with a business, you approve its consent at your bank, on the account you choose, and every charge stays inside the limits you approved. If your bank is not connected to Able yet, you share your accounts first, so that first time takes two visits to your bank. To raise the limits, revoke the consent in Purchases and choose Pay now again.
One-off payment
Your bank opens, you approve this one payment there, and the checkout confirms once it settles.
Pay on site or on delivery
The order is placed with nothing charged online, and you pay the business directly. The business records your payment when you pay them.
Something that renews, like a membership, is paid with Pay now or on site, one at a time, and never as a one-off payment. With Pay now, each later period is charged to the same consent.

02GST

Prices are GST inclusive. The checkout prints the GST share only when the business is GST registered.

03After you pay

The order lands with the business as an item in its flow, which is where they work on it. Your confirmation and anything the business sends you follow from there.
