Eftsure supplier verification
The NHVR has partnered with Eftsure to strengthen its payment security.
All suppliers of goods and services to NHVR are required to provide information to Eftsure for independent verification before conducting business and/or receiving payment via electronic funds transfer (EFT).
The verification process by Eftsure protects supplier payments against fraud and error by validating ABN, GST registration status and bank account details to ensure payments are made to correct recipients.
Who is Eftsure?
Eftsure is Australia’s market leader in payment fraud prevention with a mission to build a safer business community. They use multi-factor verification to give businesses greater oversight and control when onboarding suppliers, receiving invoices and making payments.
Why is NHVR implementing Eftsure?
With cyber fraud prevalent globally, it is a serious risk for all businesses. Threats such as phishing scams or fraudulent changes to payment files can result in significant financial loss. Eftsure monitors and verifies supplier details, reducing these risks. Once details are securely stored with Eftsure, details are automatically verified prior to each payment to prevent fraudulent accounts receiving payment.
