When sending payments through Payables, Payabli our third-party payment fulfiller will determine a payment method for them, by either contacting the vendor, or through a prior selection made by the vendor.
Once that payment method has been determined the payment, your payment status will update to indicate that payment method. The final status update will occur once the vendor has redeemed their payment.
Payment Sent: Payment has been sent to Payabli who will be working to establish the payment method.
[method] Payment Sent: Payment method has been established and payment has been sent from Payabli to the vendor.
[method Payment Processed: The vendor has redeemed the payment method and the payment is now complete.
A payment is considered redeemed once the vendor has those funds in possession. For example, when a check is cashed, an ACH deposited, or a VCard run through a point-of-sale system.
If the vendor requests to receive a virtual credit card or ACH, the expected processing time after the scheduled payment date is 3-4 days. If a paper check is selected by the vendor or as the default, you can expect standard mailing times to be added on to that processing time!
