Streamlining payment processing

We use Modulr in conjunction with a payroll software, so that our clients' payroll payments are made to their staff in a timely and organised fashion. The process is very straightforward and has streamlined our payroll processing dramatically. Our clients love the time saved from not having to make individual staff payments.

Near enough doubled prices

Near enough doubled prices/moved me onto an expensive plan without making sure I was happy with this plan. Then claimed they moved my plan for my own sake...to make things cost-effective...this is only true because they pushed up everyone's prices/manipulated their payment structure!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback . We understand that price changes can be concerning, particularly for small businesses during this time. We did communicate these changes at the beginning of May.

Since 2021, we have held our prices steady despite increased operational costs due to inflation. We are committed to providing a high-quality, reliable service that meets our customers' evolving needs by introducing new services and functionality. To achieve this, we made the difficult decision to increase our prices, whilst remaining competitive.

Here's a look at some of the new features and enhancements that we have introduced as part of our ongoing investment in your payment experience:

Confirmation of Payee: This feature is designed to reduce the risk of fraud by ensuring payment details are correct before processing transactions.

New Xero Payroll functionality: We've integrated enhanced capabilities with Xero to streamline payroll processes, making it easier for businesses to manage their finances.

Increased file compatibility: We've expanded the types of files that can be used on the platform, allowing for greater flexibility in managing and processing payments.

Mobile App for IOS: For efficient on-the-go payment management.

In-Product training sessions: To help you get the most value from using our platform.

I use Modulr to pay weekly wages

I use Modulr to pay weekly wages. It is a seamless easy integration from my wages software. The support staff is so helpful and patient and they always answer immediately with the solution. I don't find all this technology easy so it makes a huge difference that Modulr has such great support for old timers and the every day problems that will come. Great Product, Great Service, Great Support! Wonderful support staff!

Can't pull funds from Cater Allen

Your customer support was helpful during the onboarding and linking BrightPay to Modular was easy, although not seamless. We had to reach out to your support team to help us after 2 unsuccessful attempts. The biggest hurdle and deal breaker for us was that our bank, Cater Allen was not on the list of banks. The alternative for us would be to do bank transfers from Cater Allen to Modular which for us would mean additional steps, waiting time, and fees (likely) on our payroll process. Hence, we opted to do our payroll the usual.

The process is too time consuming and involved when dealing on behalf of a client. Have to keep going back to them to either add funds or approve payments.
Positive is that it is very quick to create the payments from BP and the fact that payments are virtually instantaneous.

Not for the small business

***Update re the response below as it's incorrect--
Modulr removed the lowest tier price plan of £10 and replaced it with one with a 200% increase. There was no loyalty offer to me as they suggest, they just offered the new lowest price plan.

The new features are of no use to me, I can accept price rises but not 200/600% ones, not sure how Modulr thinks this is acceptable, surprised they even tried to justify it.

Been with Modulr for a few years now but recently received an email saying that my monthly fee was rising from £10 to £67.20, so nearly a 600% increase.

They then offered £29, so just a mere 200% increase.

The reason given for the increase, inflation.

Goodbye Modulr.

Been using the system for over a year…

Been using the system for over a year and have no issue usually, and accept that mistakes happen, however the total lack of customer service and tech support over a weekend is disgraceful. I transferred the money for our payroll, and I have 47 team members that I can’t pay. I’ve emailed and left 4 messages and had no response. They seem not to care that I have 47 families that are impacted by not receiving their monthly wage
