NAEDO: Great, debit orders that raise your collection rates

By Tim Smart


Ask not what your organization is capable of doing for monthly payment collection, but what efficient, low priced payment collection is capable of doing within your business enterprise. By far the most efficient, cost effective payment techniques available today is a NAEDO or Non-Authenticated Early Debit Order. This payment system mixes the effectiveness of debit orders with the smart monitoring of credit payments to boost the likelihood of successful collections and reduce fees devoted to retries and returned debits.

NAEDO debit orders were released together with AEDO or Authenticated Early Debit Orders in South Africa in September 2006. These somewhat new payment systems were brought in to maximize debit order effectiveness by letting smart, fair action of your debit order as near to a credit payment (e.g. salary deposit) as possible. AEDO payments are usually linked with pos transactions where the future dated debit is mandated by pin authentication, with a debit or credit card or banking account for instance. NAEDO debits don't require pin authorization, have got a R5,000.00 per item transaction cap and therefore are only authorized to generally be submitted on accounts.

To get rid of the increasing problem of preferential payment access where some classes of beneficiaries always had admission to account holder funds before others the NAEDO along with its contemporaries were released. The roll-out of new legislation allowed for the phasing out from existing preferential practices doing away with unfair reduced collection success rates for some beneficiary classes and establishing an identical stage for everyone. NAEDO's are processed in a random, non-preferential basis, providing every beneficiary or vendor with a equal and fair ability to collect payments.

The wonder behind a Non-Authenticated Early Debit Order (NAEDO) is it could be enhanced by using tracking facilities. This simply means the beneficiary or service agency can stretch the mandated date over a number of months allowing the debit order instruction to end up being kept active, but unprocessed, until a credit payment is receive within the account. This significantly improves the creditor's possibility of collecting.

All looked at, a NAEDO doesn't only give your business a reasonable possibility of collecting funds, but increases your likelihood to do so by permitting tracking to trigger the debit at the most opportune time. In case you are anxious about your collection effectiveness now would be the time to switch to NAEDO.
