Who can authorise SFA to credit funds?

Suppliers

SFA suppliers can authorise SFA to credit funds into their bank accounts.

For example, when suppliers provide goods or services, they submit invoices through Vendors@Gov. To receive payment from SFA directly in their bank accounts, suppliers they need to authorise SFA by completing the Direct Credit Authorisation Form via Vendors@Gov.

Non-suppliers

Non-suppliers (e.g. grantees) can authorise SFA to credit funds into their bank accounts.

Remember to attach the required supporting document. The ‘Payee Name’ must match the name of the bank account holder.

Step 2: SFA reviews your application

2 weeks

SFA takes about 2 weeks to review complete applications. If there is an issue with your application, SFA will contact you.

Incomplete applications, e.g. applications without the required supporting document, will take longer to process.

Step 3: Receive payments from SFA

Once your application is processed, all future payments from SFA will be credited to your bank account.

How do I update my bank account?

You should update your details at Vendors@Gov so that the details will be captured by all government agencies.

For payments unrelated to Vendors@Gov, you must re-authorise SFA using the steps above.
