FAQs

What is Collections and how does it work?

Collections allows businesses to receive payments from both local and international clients directly into their Volopa account in 17 supported currencies. Each business is provided with a dedicated account (e.g., IBAN, SWIFT/BIC, and for some currencies, local account numbers) that can be shared with clients or partners to receive payments. Funds received can then be used to load your company wallet or make payments directly from your account.

Which currencies are supported for 3rd Party Collections?

You can collect payments in 17 currencies, including major ones like GBP, EUR, USD, CAD AUD, CHF, JPY, and SGD. For some currencies, such as GBP, USD, and EUR you will also have access to local collection accounts to receive payments faster and at a lower cost.

Do I need to pay extra to access Collections?

No, there is no additional fee for accessing the Collections feature. However, standard transaction and conversion fees will apply depending on the nature of the received funds and any conversions made using our competitive exchange rates.

How do I set up and activate Collections for my business?

The Collections feature is enabled by default for clients with access to international payments. If you’re a new client or don’t see the option in your account, please complete the expected usage form in your application or contact our support team at customersupport@volopa.com.

How do I share my Collections account details with clients or partners?

Once logged into your Volopa web app, navigate to the Collections page to view your dedicated account details for each currency. You can then share these details with your clients or business partners for them to make payments directly to your Volopa account.

How are my funds handled once received?

When funds are received, they are held securely in your Volopa Collections account and are visible in the Collections History section. You can then choose to load these funds into your company wallet, use them to make payments, or convert them to your preferred currency and send to your main bank account.

What happens if I don’t take action on received funds?

You will receive an email notification when funds are received, if no action is taken on received funds within a reasonable timeframe, they will be automatically returned to your nominated refund bank account and currency.

What does “Local Collection Accounts” mean?

Local Collection Accounts allow you to receive payments in certain currencies (GBP, EUR, and USD) as if you were a local business. This means payments are processed faster and often incur fewer fees, making it easier for your clients or partners to send you payments without worrying about international transfer costs.

Can I convert the received funds into a different currency?

Yes, you can convert the received funds into your preferred currency using Volopa’s competitive exchange rates before transferring them back to your main business bank account.

Will I receive a notification when funds are received?

Yes, you will receive an email notification as soon as funds are received. You can then view the details in the Collections History section and choose how to allocate or use the funds.

How do I track my Collections and generate reports?

You can track all received payments in the Collections History and Recent Activity sections in your Volopa web app. From there, you can download collection reports and generate PDF statements for specific payments or time periods.

Is there a maximum amount I can receive through Collections?

There is no strict limit on the amount you can receive. However, large payments may require additional compliance checks depending on the nature and volume of the funds. If you are expecting a large collection, it is best to notify our support team in advance.

What if I need to return a received payment?

If you need to return a payment, you can easily initiate a refund through your Volopa account. Contact our support team if you need assistance or have questions about handling refunds for specific payments.

Are the Collections feature and funds secure?

Absolutely. All funds received are securely held in segregated accounts, and every transaction is screened for compliance and security. We follow strict FCA and international regulations to ensure the highest level of protection for your business.
