Sending Payments

Sending Payments

To ensure your contribution is allocated correctly:


  • Log a funding expectation before sending payment

  • Include the correct individual account reference

  • If sending multiple payments, log a separate expectation for each


This allows payments to match automatically and reduces delays.


Payments received before 6 April that cannot be automatically allocated will still count towards the 2025/26 tax year, provided we can clearly identify the funds.
