"The Caxton payroll payment solutions have transformed our payroll operations, providing faster and reliable payment solutions for our clients"

Live Pay, a payroll bureau operating nationally and internationally, faced challenges for some clients, with the traditional three-day BACS payment cycle. By partnering with Caxton, they now offer faster payments through a proprietary platform. This integration ensures quicker, more efficient payments for customers, reducing processing time from three days to just one. 

What are Caxton Supplier Payments?

chevron

Caxton Supplier Payments let businesses send payments to suppliers both domestically and internationally with a single platform. Unlike traditional bank transfers, which can take several days, involve hidden fees, and require multiple systems for FX, Caxton streamlines the process. You can pay in GBP or multiple currencies, benefit from borderless account details, and manage all outgoing payments from one interface — reducing administrative overhead and giving full visibility of your cash flow.

How fast are international supplier payments?

chevron

While domestic payments via Faster Payments arrive near-instantly, international transfers depend on the recipient bank and the currency network. Most payments are delivered within 1–3 business days, often faster than traditional SWIFT payments. Caxton optimises routing, uses competitive FX rates, and reduces intermediary banks to minimise delays and fees.

Can I pay suppliers in multiple currencies from a single account?

chevron

Yes. Caxton supports multi-currency payments without the need to maintain separate bank accounts in each country. Upload your supplier file or enter payments manually, and we handle FX conversions at competitive rates, ensuring your suppliers get paid in their local currency without extra steps

How do Caxton payments reduce costs compared with banks?

chevron

Traditional banks often charge high fixed fees per transfer, hidden FX margins, and additional charges for urgent payments. Caxton offers transparent FX rates, consolidated files for bulk payments, and lower overall transaction costs, giving you better predictability and value for both domestic and international payments.

Can I automate supplier payments or integrate with my accounting system?

chevron

Absolutely. Caxton integrates with Xero, Sage, QuickBooks, and NetSuite, allowing you to export files or automate approvals and reconciliations. You can set up recurring payments, multi-level approval workflows, and batch uploads to save time and reduce manual errors.

How secure and compliant is Caxton?

chevron

Caxton is an FCA-regulated payments institution. All transactions are fully auditable, encrypted, and monitored in real time. Access controls, approval workflows, and two-factor authentication ensure only authorised staff can send payments, while maintaining a full audit trail for compliance reporting.

What happens if a payment fails or a supplier account is incorrect?

chevron

Caxton lets you correct errors instantly before or after the payment is sent (depending on the receiving bank). Failed transfers are flagged immediately, giving you clear instructions on how to resolve them. This reduces delays, missed deliveries, and the need for emergency re-issues.

Can I pay the same supplier in multiple countries or currencies?

chevron

Yes. With Caxton, you can send payments to the same supplier in GBP, EUR, USD, or 30+ supported currencies using one interface. FX is applied automatically at competitive rates, and you can reconcile all payments in your home currency.

Does Caxton support mass or bulk supplier payments?

chevron

Yes. Whether you’re paying 10 suppliers or 1,000, Caxton allows batch uploads of CSV or Excel files, applying multi-currency FX where needed. This massively reduces administrative effort while keeping control and transparency across all outgoing payments.

Can I use Caxton as a backup to my bank’s supplier payment system?

chevron

Definitely. Caxton works either as your primary payment platform or as a complementary system to your existing bank setup. If a bank transfer fails, FX rates are unfavourable, or you need faster processing, you can instantly switch to Caxton to keep supplier payments on schedule.
