How to use Variable Recurring Payments (VRPs)

Use sweeping payments to move money between your own accounts automatically. Set up Open Banking links and manage permissions in your app.

Updated today

Mettle supports a type of Variable Recurring Payment (VRP) called a ‘sweeping’ payment.

How sweeping payments work

Sweeping payments let you move money between two bank accounts that you own. To use this, both accounts must be in the same name or belong to the same legal entity.

How to set up a sweeping payment

  • Find a third-party provider (TPP) that offers sweeping services

  • Link your Mettle account to the provider’s app using Open Banking

  • Give the provider your permission to move money on your behalf

Note: You can only use VRPs for ‘me-to-me’ transfers.

Important: You can see or cancel your linked apps at any time by going to ‘Connections’ in the ‘Account’ section of your app.
