With the one-time direct debit method of payment, the customer gives you (the authorised party) the right to deduct a fixed amount from his or her bank account one time only. Once your visitor indicates his or her interest in paying by one-time direct debit, you can initiate the payment procedure yourself. This ensures convenience for your customer and yourself.

This means that the risk of a chargeback remains for quite some time. In other words, you may think that the payment has been made, but this might be reversed later on by the customer. It can also take from 1 to 3 days before you receive a report of the payment status.
