Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Pre-Authorized Debit agreement?
Pre-Authorized Debit (PADs) are an agreement between a business and customer which permits the business to withdraw funds from the customer bank account. Withdrawals can be one-time or recurring transactions.
Who can setup PAD payments?
PAD payments can be setup by any registered Canadian business.
Do I need customer authorization to collect payments?
Yes, customer authorization is required to collect pre-authorized debit payments in Canada. Authorization is obtained from the customer during the digital onboarding experience. Customers can view and download the embedded PAD agreement before finalizing the setup. This authorization ensures that the customer has provided consent for the merchant to debit their account for the specified amounts and intervals. Obtaining proper authorization is crucial to comply with legal and regulatory requirements and to maintain transparency and trust with customers.
What happens if the customer has insufficient funds?
You can verify available funds prior to a payment collection using VoPay’s iQ11. If funds cannot be verified and the payment is still processed, you could be subject to an NSF fee in the event that the customer does not have enough available funds.
