When and how you're charged - Documentation | FikaTrade

Payment isn’t something you trigger yourself — your supplier’s system starts it once your order is invoiced.

The trigger

Once your order is approved and invoiced, payment collection starts either automatically (for suppliers who’ve set this up) or when a member of your supplier’s team starts it manually. There’s no action for you to take in FikaTrade to begin payment — you’re not shown a “Pay” button.

Which payment method is used

Collection uses whichever payment method you have set as default — see Payment methods. If you don’t have a usable default method, your supplier will need to arrange one with you before payment can succeed.

The amount

The amount charged is your invoice total. FikaTrade doesn’t show a scheduled collection date or due date anywhere in your account — see View invoices and payment history for what is shown.

Can you delay or cancel it?

There’s no way to delay, pause or cancel a payment from your side once your supplier has started collection. If you need to, contact your supplier directly before they collect payment.
