Chile

Fintoc collects

When Fintoc collects your payments, the money goes to a bank account managed by Fintoc. Fintoc tracks and matches payments as they settle in this account. Fintoc also handles external payments that reach this account through other channels, such as regular bank transfers. Based on your payout schedule, Fintoc sends the funds to your bank account. Fintoc deducts your application fees directly from your payouts.

This scenario has the following tradeoffs:

Advantage	Disadvantage
You do not need to reconcile Fintoc payments or handle external bank transfers. Fintoc handles both processes.	Funds arrive according to your payout schedule rather than immediately. See the receiving payouts guide for payout timing.

We recommend the Fintoc collects scenario for online retailers and other companies that want Fintoc to handle payment reconciliation and external bank transfers.

Direct payments

AvailabilityDirect payments are available only for bank transfers in Chile.

In direct payments, the money flows directly from your customer’s bank account to the recipient account you specify.

If you collect payments in one bank account, periodically download the bank statement. Reconcile Fintoc payments and handle any external bank transfers that arrive in the account.

Direct payments have the following tradeoffs:

Advantage	Disadvantage
Funds go directly to the recipient’s bank account.	You must reconcile Fintoc payments and external bank transfers.
