Making or Receiving payments
  • A range of ways to make and receive payments in the UK and overseas.

    From same-day electronic payments to international cheque collection, Barclays Commercial Bank makes sending and receiving monies more efficient.

Botswana Payments
  • Cash, cheque, EFT, RTGS and card payments.

Cash & Cheque Clearing

All cheques, Barclays and other banks, must go through the 'central clearing cycle'. This normally takes 4 working days.

However, you will know if a cheque has been paid no later than 6 working days after the day of deposit. Cheques cannot be debited from an account any later without the payee’s permission or unless there is a suspicion that a fraud has been committed.


EFT Payments

Faster Payments is an enhanced service for pula payments in the local environment. It offers customers the ability to send electronic, low value payments that will reach beneficiaries’ accounts the same day. There are two clearing sessions from Mon-Thursday; One on Friday and no clearing on Saturday.

Barclays Integrator

Barclays Integrator is an internet banking platform through which customers transmit their payment (Direct Credit) and collection (Direct Debit) files for clearing via the bank

Access is provided via a secure internet link that uses cryptographic technologies for a very high level of security.

You can monitor the status of payments, receive a wide range of reports electronically and maintain your own records - all online.


RTGS

RTGS offers customers the ability to send electronic high value transactions that will reach beneficiaries within a few minutes. RTGS payments are irrevocable, fast, secure and efficient. Funds are transferred same day. RTGS is a real-time gross settlement system.

Cards

Credit and debit cards are a convenient everyday payment method, which benefit from PIN and CSC security. Credit card payments can be guaranteed.
Your card statement also provides a record of spending, which could be useful for auditing purposes.
