Bulk Payments
What is a batch payment?
A batch payment (also called a mass or bulk payment) is where you can pay multiple recipients in one transaction. Uploaded batch payments can easily be edited. Once a payment approval workflow is set up, the approver can bulk approve them with just one click.
Making stress-free payment runs
Processing hundreds of payments individually takes time, increases transaction fees, and makes reconciliation a headache. Combine multiple bills for the same vendor into a single payment and say goodbye to busywork.
Pay thousands of staff in minutes
Reduce Australian Banking Association (ABA) files, manual bank transfers and data leak risks with our Employment Hero integration. Make payroll payments in one click within a secure encrypted connection.
Domestic and international batch payments
Schedule hundreds of domestic or international invoice payments with a batch file. Uploaded batch payments can easily be edited in the platform if changes are required. Once a payment approval workflow is set up, the approver can bulk approve them with just one click.
Set up partial payments
Set up and schedule future dated split payments by percentage or dollar amount. Great for importers, new supplies or managing cash flow.

Can I limit the payroll permissions and view of my staff members’ information?
Yes, you can segregate duties across your team members and set different roles and views in the platform. If you outsource your accounts payable to someone outside of your company, you can also give them permission with limited control and access.

All of our plans (Business, Business Plus and Configure) give you access to our batch payment features, and more. For more info, see our pricing plans.
Is it compatible with Xero?
Yes. You can connect your batch or payroll payments to Xero through the OFX Business Account. This integration will push your payroll payments made from Xero. It will not pull your payroll file from Xero into our platform.
To connect your business account to Xero, simply follow the steps below:
- Log in to your OFX Business Account
- Click on “Setup” from the left sidebar menu
- Click on “Integrations” from the dropdown menu
- Click toggle to connect to Xero
- Read the acknowledgment and confirm
- Follow the on-screen instructions to authorise the integration with Xero
Is the platform compatible with other accounting or Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platforms?
Yes. Besides having a direct software integration with Employment Hero and Xero, you can also export data from your OFX Business Account as a CSV file and import it into your accounting or payroll platforms.
We’re working on integrating other accounting packages with our platform, which will be available soon.
