Bill Payment

Bill payments in the Money Mobiliser are implemented with invoice types, bill configuration, and bills. The invoice type is configured by the invoice issuer (biller) for type of bill. The bill configuration contains consumer-specific configurations for an invoice type, creating a personalized reference to an invoice type. The actual bills belonging to a bill configuration contain at least the amount due and a reference number that is provided by the biller to the customer.

• Bill Configuration
  The Bill Configuration option lists your current bill configurations, which are linked to an invoice type that stores default configuration data for the bills. The bill configuration contains at least one reference number, provided by the invoice issuer, which identifies the customer’s account, for example, your account number at the electricity company.
• Open Bills
  The Open Bills option displays all active bills from the issuer, or money that is being requested by another Money Mobiliser user. You can pay open bills with any of the payment instruments in your wallet. When paying an open bill, choose the payment instrument you want to use to pay the bill. After paying an open bill, it no longer appears in the list. You can also cancel an open bill at any time. Paid bills show up under Bill History.
• Pay Bill
  The Pay Bill option displays the bills that are set up under Bill Configuration. You can pay any of the bills immediately, but you cannot set up future payments or edit a payment. To pay a bill, you must enter the bill reference defined on the paper invoice, enter an amount for which you are paying, and select the payment instrument. The payment is immediately taken from your primary payment instrument.
• Bill History
  The Bill History displays all bill payment, airtime top-up transactions, and non-real-time money requests. Each bill you have paid appears in Bill History, as well as in the View Transaction search results. You can search for bills by month, date range, type, or status. All search parameters are optional. However, if you are searching by type or status, the results display all bills with that parameter.
