Question 1

What is GIROPie?

Accepted Answer

GIROPie is a B2B invoice-to-cash platform that enables suppliers and buyers to collaboratively manage trade credit invoices while allowing suppliers to collect payments through authorized bank mandates.

Question 2

Do my buyers need to join GIROPie?

Accepted Answer

GIROPie is designed as a collaborative platform where suppliers and buyers manage trade credit invoices together on a shared invoice layer. In this Linked environment, buyers join the platform and can interact directly on invoices — including scheduling the Pay-by-Date, raising disputes, splitting invoices, or approving payment schedules.

However, buyer participation is not mandatory to start using GIROPie.
If a buyer is not yet on the platform, the supplier can still operate in an Unlinked environment. In this case, the supplier may send an invoice-level Autopay request to the buyer through email. The buyer can authorize a one-time debit instruction for that specific invoice without joining the platform.

Even when a buyer chooses not to join GIROPie, the supplier can continue using the platform to:

• track invoices
• monitor payment schedules
• send payment reminders
• manage receivable records

This flexible model allows suppliers to gradually onboard buyers while still benefiting from GIROPie’s invoice management and collection capabilities.

Question 3

Does GIROPie replace my ERP?

Accepted Answer

No. GIROPie complements ERP systems by managing invoice settlement, payment scheduling, and automated collection.

Question 4

How are payments executed?

Accepted Answer

Payments are executed through regulated banking infrastructure after the supplier initiates collection.
