FAQ

A Mass payment or a batch payment is when you send payments to multiple recipients in a single batch, rather than processing each one individually. Our mass payments method allows you to create and send multiple transactions to multiple receivers in various currencies with a single payment. It’s ideal for companies who have a need to make multiple regular payments to a large number of receivers in various currencies. It has immense potential to save you both time and money.

You have the option of choosing whether the sender or recipient pays the fee:

1. If Sender is paying:

In the ‘Specify Send or Receiver Amount’ column in the payment file select ‘receive amount’ if you want to pay the charge for a particular payment. We’ll factor in the fee while figuring out how much to pay.

In the Specify Send or Receiver Amount’ column in the payment file select ‘send amount’ if you want your recipient to pay the charge for a particular payment. We’ll factor in the fee when calculating the amount your recipient receives.

We suggest paying for your batch of payments as soon as you send us the file(s) for processing via email. This will ensure that you get the latest exchange rate for that day as we can only process your payments once we receive the funds. If you are unable to pay immediately, your transfers will be kept typically for a day before being automatically cancelled by our system – we can discuss this further based on your specific requirements.

This means that you can monitor the payments at an individual level by logging in to your Aeon dashboard.

We will notify you if this happens and re-process the transaction where applicable.

We will process the payments as soon as we receive the funds from you. Once Aeon has processed them, it typically takes from a few hours to a few days depending on the country and currency you are sending to. For details on processing times by corridor click here

You can download a file that shows which of your transfers have errors and why if you receive an error during the file upload process. To do so, select the “download output” file option from the pop-up menu. This file will create a copy of your original batch file with the addition of a new column named “error code.” It will show you all of your transfers and which ones have errors. You can go over the file and make any changes you want. Save it and re-upload it when you’re done.

If you’ve double-checked everything and still can’t upload the batch file, please contact our business support team and send us the output file along with the error messages. You may also continue with setting up the transfers that are free of errors. Only the ones with errors will be removed from the batch.

1. The format of your file is not .xls.

2. The size of your file exceeds 5MB.

3. Your batch file contains more than 1,000 transfers or recipients.
