Question 2

Where can I find out more about the changes to my payment services on 1st February 2024?

Accepted Answer

On 1st February 2024, the following changes were implemented and will apply to certain payments made from your Centtrip account:

The beneficiary details required for making Euro payments have changed;
- Euro payments to the US will now require the beneficiary's account number and SWIFT or BIC.
- Euro payments to the Isle of Man, Jersey, or Guernsey will now require an IBAN and SWIFT or BIC.
To provide extra payment security, additional validation requirements will apply to any beneficiary details saved in your account under a Recipient.

What do you need to do?

If you wish to make a Euro payment to a beneficiary account in the US, Isle of Man, Jersey or Guernsey and the recipient was created before 1st February 2024, please set up the beneficiary as a new recipient (you will be prompted for the correct account details) before continuing.
When sending a payment, please ensure that the details of any new or existing recipients meet our additional validation requirements. If a recipient does not meet these requirements, simply visit Add Recipient and set up the beneficiary again with the correct information.

Payments that do not meet the requirements above will be returned to you.

Question 3

What are the additional validation requirements for payment recipients?

Accepted Answer

From 01/02/2024 onward, the following additional validation requirements will apply to your Centtrip payment recipients, to ensure greater accuracy and enhanced security around your transactions.

1) Recipient Name

Initials -

Full names are required; recipients which have only an initial in the first name or last name field for individuals will not be accepted. Each name field must contain at least one full name part

Examples:*

* This applies only for beneficiaries of type 'individual'.

Numeric Characters -

Individual's names should not include any numbers. Company names can include numbers, but should not be made up entirely of numbers.

Company signifiers (e.g. Ltd, Inc, SA, GMBH etc.) must not be included in the Last Name field for individual recipients.

Example:

From 19th January 2024, please ensure you use our updated payment details whenever you load your account. This change will also affect FX conversions which you have chosen to settle by bank transfer.

It may take several days for the funds to be returned to you, depending on your bank, currency and the date/time of the payment.

Which currencies does this affect?

These changes apply to payments made in ALL currencies. Please ensure you use the updated details.

What if I receive a warning message from my bank?
