How to activate auto-withdrawal via WMP

Starting from August 2022, it is possible to activate automatic payment of invoices via WMP.

Note: You need to make at least one payment manually before the Auto-withdrawal option can be activated. 

To activate auto-withdrawal:

  1. Go to WMP -> Order & Billing
  2. On the Account Balance tab, click the Activate auto-withdrawal button:


  3. Confirm activation of automatic payments:


Once enabled, invoices are paid automatically on the due date. The option of manual payments remains and, if you wish, you can still process payments via the Pay your bill button.

If you wish to disable auto-withdrawal, click the Cancel auto-withdrawal button:


How to activate early auto-payment

Early payments are encouraged and can help you save up to 12% off your annual invoices. In case of paying an invoice a month before the due date, you get 1% off it, which is shown as a discount off the next invoice. The discount is calculated as a daily rate of 12% per annum, so every day counts. In case the invoice is overdue by three days or more, a blanket 12% annual interest on late payments is charged, calculated as a daily rate.

To enable early auto-payment:

  1. Log in to WMP
  2. Go to Orders & Billing -> Account Balance
  3. Click Enable early auto-payment

Note: 

  • Each invoice must be paid in full.
  • The discount must be 20 CHF/EUR/GBP/USD or more to be credited.
  • Deductions do not affect MRR.

For late payment fees:

  • A minimum of 20 CHF/EUR/GBP/USD will be charged for the late payment.
  • Interest will be added to the next invoice as a separate charge.
  • Interest does not count toward MRR.
