Verification transfer

If you are asked to make a transfer, it means that the company you want to use needs to check your information. This is a fast and secure way of confirming your personal details and is done completely online - no need to send documents or visit a branch.

What is a verification transfer?

A verification transfer is a symbolic transaction (e.g. £1) that you make from your bank account. This gives the company the assurance that:

• the details you have provided match the details of the bank account holder,
• the account actually belongs to you,
• You have provided the correct account number (BBAN).

This form of verification is used, for example, when applying for credit, deferred payment, registering for financial services or entering into online contracts.

What does the process look like?

1. You apply for a particular service or product on the company's website.
2. You are redirected to the Autopay payment gateway, where you select your bank.
3. You log into online banking and approve the automatically prepared transfer.
4. After the transfer is made, your details are passed on to the company that commissioned the service.

💡 Important

• Do not change the transfer detailsthat you will see on the screen - these are automatically generated and must remain unchanged for the verification to be successful.
• Make the transfer as soon as possible after it is generated - Each transaction has a specific expiry time. If the money arrives after the deadline, the service will be discontinued.

Which banks can I use?

The list of supported banks may change, but the following banks are currently available for verification transfer:

• Alior Bank
• Bank Millennium
• Bank Pekao S.A.
• Postal Bank
• BNP Paribas
• BOŚ Bank
• Credit Agricole
• Citi Handlowy
• ING Bank Śląski
• Inteligo
• mBank
• Nest Bank

If you temporarily do not see your bank listed in the payment gateway, this may indicate temporary unavailability - e.g. due to maintenance work.

Where to report a problem with a verification transfer?

If you have a problem with the transfer or are unsure if it has been processed correctly, it is best to contact the company directly that asked you for verification. Autopay only provides the transfer technology and consultants do not have access to information about the status of the request or the company's decision.
