NAEDO: Intelligent, debit orders that enhance your collection success rates

By Tim Smart


Ask not what your business can do for payment collection, but what effective, low priced payment collection is able to do within your business. Just about the most efficient, low priced payment strategies available is a NAEDO or Non-Authenticated Early Debit Order. This payment strategy mixes the efficaciousness of debit orders with all the clever tracking of credit payments to boost the likelihood of successful collections and lower fees devoted to retries and returned debits.

NAEDO debit orders were launched along with AEDO or Authenticated Early Debit Orders in South Africa in September 2006. These fairly new payment systems were brought to enhance debit order effectiveness by allowing intelligent, honest action of a debit order as close to a credit payment (e.g. salary deposit) as is possible. AEDO payments usually are connected with pos transactions where the future dated debit is mandated by pin authentication, with a debit or bank card or bank-account for instance. NAEDO debits will not require pin authorization, have got a R5,000.00 per item transaction cap and are only approved to be submitted on accounts.

To remove the expanding problem of preferential payment access where some classes of beneficiaries always had admission to account holder funds before others the NAEDO as well as its contemporaries were released. The creation of new legislation allowed for the phasing out from existing preferential practices eradicating unfair reduced collection success for certain beneficiary classes and establishing an equal playing field for all. NAEDO's are processed on a random, non-preferential basis, providing every beneficiary or vendor with an equal and fair opportunity to collect payments.

The wonder behind a Non-Authenticated Early Debit Order (NAEDO) is it is generally enhanced by way of tracking facilities. This simply means the beneficiary or supplier can stretch the mandated date over a number of months allowing the debit order instruction to end up being kept active, but unprocessed, until a credit payment is receive within the account. This significantly improves the creditor's probability of collecting.

All looked at, a NAEDO doesn't just give your small business a fair possibility of collecting funds, but increases your likelihood to do so by permitting tracking to trigger the debit at the most opportune time. So if you are concerned with your collection efficiency now could be the time to switch to NAEDO.
