1.6 Balance Check Permission

The long-lived Multi-Payments Consent can be extended to include optional permission for Balance Check which allows the TPP to check the balance of the User’s Payment account before initiating a payment as part of a long-lived Multi-Payments Consent.

This capability allows the TPP

  • check the balance in advance of payment to be initiated as part of the Multi-Payments Consent consent and ask the user to take remedial action if the funds are insufficient.

  • display the balance to the user at the point of initiating a payment.

1.1 Enable Users to provide and review the parameters related to the initiation of a series of Multi-Payments they need to consent to. These parameters include:

1.7 Combined Payments (Recurring Payments with a One-Time Setup)

TPPs MUST be able to support use cases where Users need to make an initial payment and then require the ability to make further payments on a recurring basis as part of a single Consent request.

A single request can include the consent for a SIP combined with the consent for FRPs or VRPs, which can be authorized by the User with the LFI in a single authentication/authorization flow. The User (Consumer or Business) makes one initial payment and authorizes further recurring payments of a fixed or variable amount with a fixed or variable schedule to a business or a personal beneficiary.

This functionality requires a Long-lived Consent. The consent parameter type for this functionality is Combined Payment Consent, which is a long-lived consent that MUST be used for a combination of a single instant payment and a series of future payments of fixed or variable amounts occurring at fixed or variable schedule.

User Story

As a User (Consumer or Business),

I want to provide my consent to a TPP to use my payment account for initiating both:

  • a Single Instant or Future Dated Payment of a fixed amount and;

  • a sequence of future recurring payments of fixed or variable amounts with a fixed or variable schedule to a domestic beneficiary account owned by a business or an individual,

so that I can pay an instant downpayment and allow the remaining future payments of my payment plan to the relevant beneficiary.

    Processing of Payment Initiation Requests

    OFP MUST:

    2.1 Allow the TPPs to submit individual payment initiation requests under the long-lived Payment Consent authorized by the User, without any additional MFA or authorization from the User.

    2.2 Check that the received payment initiation requests relate to a valid long-lived Payment Consent authorized by the User. The Consent MUST be in the Authorized state. The OFP MUST reject any payment initiation messages related to a Payment Consent in a different state (e.g. expired) and respond back to the TPP with the appropriate error message/code.

    2.3 Check the payment initiation request parameters against the authorized long-lived Payment Consent. More specifically, the OFP MUST check the following:

    • The Payee Identification details in the submitted payment initiation request matches exactly the Payee Identification in the authorized Payment Consent, except in the case of Variable Beneficiaries Consent.

      • 2.3.1 For Variable-defined Beneficiaris, the Payee Identification details in the submitted payment initiation request MUST match exactly one of the Payee Identification entries in the authorized Payment Consent Predefined Beneficiary List.

      • the validity period of the long-lived Payment Consent (i.e. Consent Expiration Date & Time)

      • the period defined in the Periodic or Variable-defined Payment Schedule (for Fixed Recurring, Variable Recurring and Variable-defined Consent types). In this case, the dates of each payment initiation request MUST match exactly the dates in the Payment Schedule.

    • The amount in the submitted payment initiation request:

      • matches exactly the payment amount for consents of type Fixed Recurring and Fixed On-demand.

      • matches exactly the payment amount for the date of the payment initiation for consents of type Variable-defined.

      • is less or equal to the maximum payment value per payment initiation for consents of type Variable Recurring and Variable On-demand.

    • Check the cumulative Total Number of payment initiations including the submitted payment initiation request is less than the Total Number of Payments as defined in the authorized long-lived Fixed Recurring Payment Consent.

    2.5 Increment the cumulative total number of payments after the payment has been successfully executed and received payment status confirmation from the payee Bank. The initial value of this parameter should be zero for each authorized Fixed Recurring Payment Consent.

    2.6 Set the Fixed Recurring Payment Consent state to a terminal state (Finished), if the cumulative total number of payments requests becomes equal to the Total Number of Payments parameter of the Fixed Recurring Payment Consent.

    PISPs MUST be able to support use cases where PSUs need to make an initial payment and then require the ability to make further payments on a recurring basis as part of a single consent request.

    A single request can include the consent for SIP/FDP and the FRPs or VRPs which can be authorized by the PSU with the PASP in a single authentication flow.

    User Story

    As a PSU (Consumer or Business),

    I want to provide my consent to a TPP to use my payment account for initiating both:

    • a Single Instant or Future Dated Payment of a fixed amount and;

    • a sequence of future recurring payments of fixed or variable amounts with a fixed or variable schedule to a domestic beneficiary account owned by a business or an individual,

    so that I can pay the relevant beneficiary.

    The PSU (Consumer or Business) makes one initial payment and authorizes further recurring payments of a fixed or variable amount with a fixed or variable schedule to a business or a personal beneficiary.

    This use case requires a Generic Business Rules for PIS | B. Long Lived Consent. The consent parameters type for this use case is Combined Payment Consent, which is a long-lived consent that MUST be used for a combination of a single instant payment and a series of future payments of fixed or variable amounts occurring at fixed or variable schedule.

    PISPs MUST:

    5.1 Enable PSUs to provide a single explicit consent for both the single instant or future dated payment and the setup of FRPs or VRPs. More specifically, PSUs MUST be allowed to combine in a single consent the following options:

    • Single Instant Payment with Fixed Recurring Payments or Single Future Dated Payment with Fixed Recurring Payments

    • Single Instant Payment with Fixed on Demand Payments or Single Future Dated Payment with Fixed on Demand Payments

    • Single Instant Payment with Variable Recurring Payments or Single Future Dated Payment with Variable Recurring Payments

    • Single Instant Payment with Variable On-demand Payments or Single Future Dated Payment with Variable On-demand Payments

    • Single Instant Payment with Variable-defined Payments or Single Future Dated Payment with Variable-defined Payments

    5.2 Request both the single instant payment and the FRPs or VRPs setup within a single explicit consent. There MUST be a single Authorization step for this request with the PASP.

    PASPs MUST:

    5.4 Enable PSUs to authorize a combined consent in a single authentication flow.

    5.5 Respond with a failure for the entire request, if there is a failure in processing either part of the payment consent request.

    TTPs MUST:

    6.1.1 Allow Users to manually enter the Consent Reference or pre-populate it for the Users (depending on the Use Case). Consent Reference is mandatory due to being the default value to be used for the Payment Reference of the Payment Initiation Requests. The Consent Reference is populated either by the User (i.e. payer) or the TPP using information requested by the beneficiary or any other information that can be provided to the beneficiary to assist in identifying and reconciling any payments initiated using this consent. This information may be mapped to the Payment Reference of each Payment Initiation Request and thus may be transferred via the payment rails to the beneficiary LFI. However, the TPP might not be using this and may be populating the Payment Reference of each of the initiated payment Requests with different information.
