We want to thank everyone for the attention this idea has drawn. It’s clear from the many votes and detailed comments that having the ability to pay supplier bills with BPAY from Xero is a high-value feature for our Australian customers.

We understand the desire in this and see how this functionality would enhance your use of Xero, and it is definitely on our radar.

As you may have heard, our product team's current focus is on developing our bill payment solutions like we’ve delivered in the UK to more regions, with sights currently set on AU.

Your feedback here is valuable to the team as we explore what this experience will look like. Though we can’t commit to any timelines as yet, BPAY is a feature that we’ll be aiming to support through our new solution. We’ll keep you updated on further news and progress for this, through the idea here.

    100% We need batch payments for Bpay. In fact, "Batch" payments should allow Bpay & Direct Debit payments to generate 2 separate files for upload into the bank.

  • Nicole Knecht commented  ·   ·  Report

    Agreed, this change is so important. I know so many other programs that have this function.

  • Mark Teven commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes Xero when is this going to be available. Fees keep going up and no mention of this. What’s happening? When do users expect to see this?

  • Kevin Lodge commented  ·   ·  Report

    Can Xero confirm that this is on the radar? and when please?

  • Jade To commented  ·   ·  Report

    We have been using a third party (subscription) Xero app (Parakeet) for a few years now. It's not free, but worth it for our volume.

    Interesting. I just checked MYOB. They provide this functionality. Come on Xero!!!!!!!

  • Tabetha Boreham commented  ·   ·  Report

    It would be great to be able to select a payment option i.e EFT, BPAY, CHEQUE - you would then be able to see what payments are EFT and what are in the batch for BPAY

  • Jann Pagliaro commented  ·   ·  Report

    Our client has a lot of properties and being able to batch BPAY payments is essential for efficient processing of accounts.

  • Stephanie Keys commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is a basic function and bpay has been around for years. Why is it taking Xero so long to catchup?

  • Julie Slade commented  ·   ·  Report

    It would be great to be able to export a BPAY batch, however, the banks would have to be on board as I can't currently upload a BPAY batch into the online banking. I currently pay my BPAY payments as a separate batch as if I was going to export it and then enter them manually in the bank as a batch.

    Due to batch payments, i pay all my accounts at the middle of the month before they are due in one batch payment. This month I have 5 BPay payments that i have to do separately. This is time. I am time poor and Xero needs to get this sorted so Batch payments include Bpay payments as well. Saves a lot of time.
    1). Registration
    2). Insurances
    3). ATO
    4). Telstra Bill
    5). Suppliers
    6). Asic
    7). Webcentral

    Xero this needs to get done ASAP.

  • Fritz Shoemaker commented  ·   ·  Report

    We are getting hit with more and more businesses that are Bpay only in Australia, Telstra, Aurora Energy in Tasmania, council. It makes sense that there is a work around and I note that Xero team shared this idea 11 years ago. Seems like it is time to act.

  • Petronella Prinsloo commented  ·   ·  Report

    When will this be available? This is critical for a lot of businesses, especially in property development where there are hundreds of lots with individual BPay information for each Rates and taxes payment

  • Nicole Knecht commented  ·   ·  Report

    This function needs to be added URGENTLY! Takes me 5 times the amount of time to process my BPAY payments compared to doing a batch payment.

  • Krystal Osborne commented  ·   ·  Report

    How is this not a thing yet! This is critical to batch payment options.

  • Lisa Bennie commented  ·   ·  Report

    When will this be available? This is critical for a lot of businesses, especially in property development where there are hundreds of lots with individual BPay information for each. The banks that we use do not provide BPay banking templates and instead direct us to discuss the matter with Xero directly.

    Many bills in our company Have to be Paid Via Bpay. This would benifet everyone.
