Redeem Direct Vouchers

You do not need to do anything to redeem parents Redeem Direct Vouchers as the parent uses an automatic payment to your account similar to a standing order.

E-Vouchers

You do not need to do anything to an E-Voucher as these vouchers are controlled by a parent using their online account. The parent will simply need to log onto their account and make a payment to you or set up an automatic payment similar to a standing order.

In all cases your payment will be sent by Bacs and a remittance advice will be sent to you detailing the parents name, voucher numbers and amounts paid by each parent and the total amount that will be credited to your bank account.

For me, as a childminder, Childcare Vouchers mean I get guaranteed payment and the money goes straight into my bank account
