FAQs

Can I delete payees towards whom I no longer need to make payments?

You can delete individual accounts or demand drafts of a payee towards whom you no longer wish to make payments. If the payee has a single account or demand draft assigned, the payee record is also deleted. However, if the payee whose account or demand draft details you delete also has other accounts or demand drafts assigned, these accounts or demand draft details will not be impacted by the deletion of any other account or demand draft.

Can I edit the payee name or account details of the payee once a payee has been created?

No. You can only edit or remove the limits i.e. the daily or monthly limits assigned to the account or demand draft of the payee.
