When you switch to Iteras, and have previously sent payment slips or Betalingsservice (BS) payment requests, your BS agreement must be updated or a new one must be created. This article explains how, depending on which BS agreement you previously had.
Switching from Betalingsservice Web
Betalingsservice Web is a product that allows you to send Betalingsservice payment requests and payment slips via a browser.
Iteras cannot operate on a Betalingsservice Web agreement. The Nets agreement must therefore be upgraded to a Total Agreement, which can be done at https://betalingsservice.dk.
Technically, this means you will get a new agreement with a new PBS number, but customers who are billed automatically can be migrated during the process.
The information you need from Iteras can be found below. PBS has slightly changed the procedure since we first created this helpdesk article, so they no longer ask for all of the details:
Integration to accounting system: Yes (this is for Iteras)
Product: Total solution / Betalingsservice with payment slip
Betalingsservice Archive: Not required for Iteras
Debtor group number: Optional (“00001” is fine)
What should appear on the payment overview: Your company or magazine name (your choice)
How should the customer number appear: Write “Abonnentnr” (Subscriber no.)
Payment on non-bank days: Following bank day
Data provider number: 35681558
Data communication method: SFTP
Subsystem: BS1
Services: Automatic payments, paper payment slips, electronic payment slips to bank
In the comment box, write the following:
"Hello Nets
We would like to have the following services on our agreement:
Enable 603 deliveries: We want both daily sign-ups and cancellations (0231, 0232, 0233, 0234) as well as a monthly delivery (0230)
Automatic payments should be notified on the payment day
We want electronic notifications of rejections/returns on automatic payments on an ongoing basis
We want 605 files to be imported.
Thank you in advance."
We strongly recommend that you keep the same FI number you have been using so far, as subscribers’ online banking remembers this number (many will continue paying to the old number if you change it). If you have other activities that also use the FI number (e.g., advertising, events, etc.), you should get a new FI number for these, and we also recommend that you open a new separate bank account so subscription payments have their own account. This makes it easier to reconcile the account.
If you instead choose to get a new account number for subscription payments (which is also possible — in that case, the bank can change the old FI number to point to the new account), this new account number must also be updated on the BS agreement. This is because Betalingsservice payment requests do not go through the FI number, but directly into the account.
Switching from Total agreement
Iteras also works with a BS Total agreement (which BS also calls “Total solution with payment slip”), so it may be slightly misleading to call this section “Switching from Total Agreement.” However, the Nets agreement still needs to be updated so that Iteras becomes the data provider.
Go to https://betalingsservice.dk, log in, and fill in/update with the following information (highlighted marks the fields that likely need updating). PBS has changed the process slightly since we first wrote this helpdesk article, so they no longer ask for all of the following:
