What are Mobile Payments from Esendex?
Mobile Payments from Esendex is an award-winning and innovative way for businesses to collect funds from customers. Instead of relying on traditional channels like post and manual calls from agents, Mobile Payments uses the Mobile Journeys platform to target customers’ mobile devices and deliver a personalised, fully branded payment environment.
Do Mobile Payments work?
Mobile Payments are a proven way to increase payments when compared to traditional forms of payment collections like post and payments over the telephone.
We took a sample group of 14,000 customers and found that when using the platform, just over 5,000 (38.2%) of them went on to make a payment.

Who can use Mobile Payments?
Financial Services
Collecting payments from customers in the financial sector can often be extremely challenging. In many cases, the customer does not have the means to pay or simply refuses to pay.
Mobile payments provides an engaging platform which increases the chances of a payment being made, by providing an easy to use, secure, self-serve environment.
Examples include:
- Overdue debt reminder/payment reminder
- Regular loan repayments
- Insurance premium collections
Public Sector
Organisations in the public sector are continually looking for ways to maximise their opportunities to take payments, while at the same time reducing their cost to serve.
Mobile payments provides a fully automated payment service, which is cheaper to run than traditional communication channels such as post.
Examples include:
- Council tax collection
- Public housing rent collection
- Healthcare/dental treatment collection
Retail
Using a Mobile Payment in conjunction with a Mobile Journey makes it easier than ever to introduce customers to products and services, provide updates on stock availability based on user preferences and then to seamlessly take payment.
Examples include:
- Store card collections
- Transaction processing
Utilities
Ensuring that utility bills are paid can be time-consuming and troublesome if you’re relying on communication tools like post.
Using a digital channel like Mobile Payments to prompt payment, and then provide a means to make that payment as part of the same interaction, is a proven way to increase payments, and make significant cost savings.
Examples include:
- Direct Debit setup
- Overdue payment collections
