Flow is a business account that enables bank payments to be made in real time via the Faster Payments network. Flow lets you manage your funds in one single place without the need for third-party banks.

Where can I find my invoices?

Log in to your Fondy account, select «Statements» from the menu, and from here you will find your monthly reports.

What is an IBAN and how does it work?

IBAN stands for International Bank Account Number. The IBAN is a globally recognised system used to identify bank accounts across the world. IBANs help reduce errors and speed up international money transactions. You can also use an IBAN to receive funds, transfer funds internally or externally with other banks.

How can Fondy help me to grow sales?

Fondy’s payment solution helps businesses grow revenue by:

  • allowing more customers to buy from you because we offer a wider range of payment methods
  • expanding your reach as a business by attracting customers worldwide
  • lowering your cart abandonment rate because more customers can pay in their preferred payment method, currency and language
  • costing you less each month, saving you thousands each year in hidden costs and fees
  • simplifying and shortening the time it takes for your money to become available

What reports can I generate at the end of the month?

  • A monthly statement
  • A transactional reconciliation report
  • Customer spending trends
  • Payment method insights
  • View settlements and manage B2B payment distribution
  • Create and configure invoices and payment links
  • Conversion rates and view fraud instances
  • Split payouts

Can you work with custom-built web pages?

Yes, with our API, developers can easily integrate our solutions into their existing custom-built web pages, apps, and platforms which will give them access to implement one or all of our solutions.

When do I receive settlements?

This can be once a month, week, or day depending on the business needs and risk profile of the business – your standard retail store would be daily settlements.

Costs and fees

Are there hidden fees?

There are no hidden costs.

Are there any monthly fees or set up fees I should know about?

No monthly or set up fees or hidden costs.

What can I expect to pay in my first month?

This depends on your volume in the month, and there is a difference between local card payments and international card payments.

What is included in the fee charged per transaction?

In accordance with industry practice, all companies using payments will pay scheme fees (Visa & Mastercard), the switching fee + £0.20. There are costs associated with other parts of the payment process like refunds, chargebacks, disputes, legal arbitrations and etc, but these are standard fees that you only pay if any of these things happen, and they are mandatory charges by your bank.

How does your pricing work?

We can provide customised pricing for merchants currently taking card payments. Visit Fondy’s pricing page to learn more.

Do we pay for Google Pay and Apple Pay if we want to activate them?

No, you do not pay for them, they are a standard feature of our payment solution.

General queries

How does cart abandonment affect my business?

Cart abandonment will negatively affect your business because it means consumers are not completing the checkout process on your online store. Take a look at our guide on reducing cart abandonment and increasing conversions.

Why is my conversion so bad?

A conversion rate is the number of declines divided by the number of transactions. Declines happen for many reasons including insufficient funds, card not on 3DS, payment method not authorised, etc. A normal conversion rate is between 85% to 100%.
