Introduction to allpay Prepaid Cards
The allpay Prepaid system is a secure, web-based, client communication system which is fully supported by allpay Limited.
The allpay Prepaid system enables your organisation to manage Prepaid cards. Access to the system is gained via a username, password and a one-time password (OTP) for Two-Factor Authentication. Each User that can sign on to the system is assigned a Role. Each Role has permission to access specific functions in the system. Therefore, two people signing onto the system may have access to different functions.
In terms of product flexibility, the allpay Prepaid card is able to offer four Prepaid programs:
• Instant Issue
• Instant Issue Advance
• Banking Lite
• General Spend/Travel & Expenses
This guide is intended to provide the key features for a User in the system, covering all four variants; where a section is for a specific program this will be clarified in the section title. For information about the essentials required by a Super User, please refer to the Prepaid Card Super User Reference Guide.
Commonly Used Processes
The most commonly used processes within the Prepaid System are:
- Instant Issue and Instant Issue Advance: Ordering, Activating and Loading a Card (Figure 1)
- Banking Lite and General Spend (T&E): Setting up a new Cardholder and Loading the Card with Funds (Figure 2)
Banking Lite: Creating a New Payee and Making a Payment (Figure 3)
Please find below three flow diagrams to represent each of these processes. This should help you to follow
each stage and reference the chapters in this guide.
Accessing the system
The allpay system runs on secure servers and will not require any installation on the User’s computer.
The allpay Prepaid system uses an internet browser interface and has been extensively tested on the most common browsers. All allpay systems have a very high level of internet security and use TLS 1.2 internet protocol as per the recent changes in the regulations governing online payments issued by the PCI-DSS.
Note:
• PCI-DSS stands for Payment Card Industry – Data Security Standard – this is an information security standard for all organisations that store, process or transmit cardholder data.
• TLS 1.2 stands for version 1.2 of Transport Layer Security – this provides communications security over the Internet.
To access the system, all you need to do is open your internet browser and enter https://www.allpayprepaid.net/organisation into the address bar; you will then be directed to a login page where you can enter your username, password and one time password as per the instructions below.
Logging in
Access to the system is safeguarded by allpay using an authentication process. allpay will provide your organisation with log in details for your Super User’s account. It is the responsibility of your Super User to set up User accounts and provide Users with their account details; instructions for this can be found in the Advanced User Reference Guide.
To log in to the allpay Prepaid system, follow the instructions below:
Important Information about passwords
• All passwords are case sensitive
• Passwords must be a minimum of six characters in length
• It is recommended that all passwords contain both numeric and alphabetic characters
• Do not use group, shared or generic passwords
• Passwords should be memorised and never written down
Password Expiry: The password will expire after 60 days. A countdown message will be displayed advising the User to change their password.
Once a valid username and password are entered the User will be directed to the Home page.
Note: The User will be prompted to update their Username and Password when logging in for the first time.
Two-Factor Authentication:
In order to comply with the FCA’s (Financial Conduct Authority) security regulations, a ‘second layer’ of security will need to be passed before a user can access the Prepaid Portal.
To complete the additional security step, please see instructions below:
A six-digit One Time Password (OTP) will be sent immediately to the chosen method. The user will then be required to enter the code and click verify.
Note: The email address and phone number can be amended in advance via the settings menu. However, if the credentials are incorrect upon the Two-Factor Authentication screen, the organisations superuser will need to be contacted to amend these.
Home Page
The Home page is laid out in a simplistic style and contains access to general areas in the system. The Home page screen will be customised to reflect the areas of the system that the User has permissions for. Functionality can be accessed by way of any of three distinct menus:

The Note will contain the time and date that the entry was recorded. It is not possible to delete a note once it has been added.
PEPs Matches
As this is a financial product, strict checks must be done on all Cardholders. The checks that are carried out are:
• ‘Politically Exposed Persons’ (PEPs): this check searches for anyone who is or has been entrusted with a prominent public function, or a relative or known associate of that person.
• ‘Sanctions’: this check searches the Sanctions register. This register relates to Financial Sanctions imposed by HM Treasury on persons who are subject to restrictive financial measures.
allpay Limited will screen all Cardholders upon first registration, when updates are made to Cardholders’ details, and daily thereafter.
The User can view / manage the lists of Cardholders that matched any of the PEPs / Sanctions lists either at registration stage or any point where their details were updated.
The information is managed in tabs:
• Card Registration matches displays the list of Cardholders that matched any of the PEPs / Sanctions lists at new Cardholder registration stage
• Card Update matches displays the list of Cardholders that matched any of the PEPs / Sanctions lists after the monthly checks, or where their details were updated through amending the Cardholder details in the system.
Card Registration Matches
A search can be made using the following fields:
• Matching Date Range: selection boxes to select FROM - TO dates to show only the dates where there were matches
• Action Date Range: selection boxes to select FROM - TO dates to show only the dates where an action was taken
• Record ID: enter part or all of the Record ID assigned to the matched registration
• Client ID: part or all of the Client ID assigned to the matched registration. This field will only be available for those matched registrations that have been cleared
• Status: a dropdown menu showing all the available statuses (matched / cleared / cancelled)
Click ‘Search’ or ‘Reset’ once values are entered in the search field. The following information will be displayed based on the search criteria entered:
• Record ID
• Actor
• Matching Date
• Action Date
• Client ID
• Reason
• Status
• Actions
Those registrations that matched a PEPs/Sanctions item but have not yet been reviewed will show the Actor as ‘Peps & Sanctions’.
When a potential PEPs match is identified, both allpay and the superuser will be notified by email, allpay will review this potential match and attempt to discount this from the information we hold. Allpay may contact your superuser and request more information/evidence to be able to discount or confirm the match.
For Sanctions matches, the card will not be issued at all.
Once a registration has been cleared or cancelled the actor field will be populated with who performed this action. The reason and action date will also be displayed in the relevant fields.
A search can be made using the following fields:
• Date Range: selection boxes to select FROM - TO dates to show only the dates where there were matches
• Record ID: enter part or all of the Record ID assigned to the matched registration

• Record ID

• Status
Any matches listed under this section will be existing Cardholders with issued cards. The same process will apply here as for the Card Registration Matches: The Super User will be notified of the match and, for PEPs matches that you wish to be released, evidence must be provided to allpay Limited. For Sanctions matches, the card will be blocked.

Interactive Voice Response (IVR)

The automated telephone service allows Cardholders to access and manage aspects of their Prepaid Card. The main functions of the IVR are:
- Card activation
- Request card balance
- Hear a list of recent transactions
- Retrieve card PIN
- Update IVR telephone access code
Report card as lost, stolen or damaged
Access to the IVR is granted via a six-digit telephone access code which the Cardholder creates as part of the initial card activation.
