Zenith Payments has processed over $25 million in PayTo transactions across our brand portfolio, including School EasyPay, TravelPay, B2Bpay, Rental Rewards, Thoroughbred Payments and ZenPay.
It is a meaningful milestone, and one that reflects how quickly Australian businesses and consumers are moving toward real-time, account-to-account payments. For software platforms looking to add PayTo to their product, the timing has never been better.
Why PayTo
PayTo is Australia’s modern alternative to direct debit. It is faster, more transparent and built for the way software platforms operate today.
Key benefits for businesses and their customers:
- Real-time payment confirmation, no waiting for funds to clear
- Instant account validation that reduces failed payments and fraud
- Data-rich payment messages that integrate cleanly into software workflows
- Secure bank authorisation via mobile apps for a better customer experience
- Fewer chargebacks and reversals
- Clearer cash flow visibility for both businesses and platforms
PayTo is not just a payment method. It is infrastructure built for modern, API-driven software.
Adoption backed by real volume
Across the Zenith portfolio, PayTo is gaining real traction:
- $25M+ processed across Zenith brands
- Live in schools, travel, rentals, business payments and specialist industries
- Adopted by parents, travellers, SMEs and property managers
- Proven reduction in failed payments compared to direct debit
- Real-time certainty on every transaction
PayTo is moving from emerging to expected. The businesses and platforms that get ahead of it now will be well positioned when it becomes standard.
