Batch payouts (Asima)

John Blackmore - 10th Mar, 2025

Batch payouts allow you to upload a payment batch that can be processed at once, and require only one authorisation per batch. Bulk payouts are most commonly used for paying supplier invoices or payroll.

Batch payouts allow you to make payments from a single account that you control to multiple payees without having to authorise each individual payment. These bulk payment runs are suitable for tasks such as paying supplier invoices, or running staff payroll. Batch payouts are exclusively available to enterprise customers on our Asima Open Banking PIS plans.

Bank restrictions

We support the Open Banking specification for processing file payments. Your bank may place additional requirements on initiating file payments. These may include limits on the number of payments in each batch, the total combined value of the payments, or restrictions on recipients being existing named beneficiaries.

We have compiled a list of banks that we are aware of that may place restrictions on file payments. Not all banks support file payments, so if you bank is not listed you should first check with your account manager that Open Banking file payments are supported. If you need any additional help please raise a support ticket.
