Manage and add standing authorities
Easily set up and manage standing authorities to automatically pay providers of your choice.
What is a standing authority?
A standing authority allows nib Thrive to make automatic payments on your behalf to a specific provider or all your providers. This helps streamline the payment process, ensuring prompt invoice payments and reduces the risk of delays or missed payments. Invoices must still meet requirements and there needs to be enough funding in your plan.
How to manage and add standing authorities
To manage your standing authorities:
Log in to the nib Thrive Portal
Select ‘Standing authorities’ on the main navigation menu
You can view all standing authorities you have set up for your providers, including provider details, their current status, dates and any payment limits
Select 'Action’ to change or stop a standing authority
To add a new standing authority, select ‘Add’
Please choose the provider that you wish to set up as a standing authority
Select a start and end date. The end date is when the standing authority expires. You will need to manually approve invoices for this provider again after this date or set a new expiry date if you want to continue the standing authority.
