  3. 2.1.1. Certain details in relation to your Nominated Account (including security details which your Account Provider will require for the purposes of strong customer authentication); and
  4. 2.1.2. the amount of the initiated payment.

2.2. Using the provided details, Comma will assess the available functionality of your bank account to support the payment run created by the Authorised User.

2.2.1. This request is prompted by Comma where a payment run is identified to be unable to be processed by the Primary User’s existing bank account due to known limitations

2.2.2. Comma tracks and aligns to all bank specific information which is advised to Clients as part of our Support Hub

2.2.2.1. Payment limits are not applied by Comma but by each financial institution a Client may link to, Comma facilitates payments proposed by you under the assumption you have taken sufficient care to create the payment run in line with your banks advised limitations, or the payment is likely to fail

2.2.3. Dependent on the available functionality of the banks Open Banking APIs, Comma will offer you the ability to make the payment directly through Open banking or to open a Virtual Account to facilitate onward payment to the named beneficiaries of the payment run.

2.3. Where Open Banking is appropriately supported by the Clients bank, Comma will bring the authorised user through to their bank portal to complete a Strong Client Authentication journey to consent to authorise movement of funds from their bank account using the Open Banking Payment Initiation Service (PIS)

2.3.1. If the initiated payment relates to a transaction that is to be executed by your Account Provider immediately, you will not be able to cancel the initiated payment after you have provided your confirmation. If you have approved the Initiated Payment during a business day, it will be considered as received by us and approved by you on that day.

2.4. Where Open Banking does not provide sufficient functionality (i.e bank does not support bulk PIS payments), Comma will offer the Clients the option to Open a Virtual Account

2.4.1. this initiates additional information capture fields to facilitate further ID&V checks to be made against the Client

2.5. Once you have passed the relevant eligibility and KYC checks set-out in clause Comma will open a Virtual Account in your name.

2.6. You will be notified in the App once a Virtual Account has been opened and be asked to send a payment instruction to Comma containing the necessary payment order information set out in clause 2.1 to enable us to:

2.7. calculate the Settlement Value;

2.8. correctly identify each Payee; and

2.9. reconcile the correct amounts payable to each Payee.

2.10. Once we have calculated the Settlement Value you will be asked in the App to consent to initiate a settlement value payment via the Account Provider from your Designated Account into the Virtual Account.

2.11 Payments are then initiated using the Open Banking Payment Initiation Service (PIS) which will take you through to your bank account to authorise the payment using the banks security controls to the Virtual Account held by Comma in your businesses name

2.11.1 Comma is authorised to provide PIS and Account Information Services (AIS) as an agent of Yapily Connect

2.12. Once this payment has been initiated and the funds received into the Virtual Account, Comma considers the payment run to be authorised we will initiate payments from the Virtual Account to Payees in line with your instructions.

2.13. We will never hold funds in the Virtual Account and any funds which do not reach the nominated Payee will be returned immediately to your Designated Account.

2.14. You will be informed of all successful and failed transactions via the App.

2.15. You acknowledge and agree that the successful execution of an initiated payment is dependent upon the cooperation of your Account Provider and the correct functioning of the banking infrastructure. Once we have submitted the Initiated Payment Details to your Account Provider, the execution of the initiated payment is the responsibility of your Account Provider and we are not responsible for any delays in this respect.
