Charging VAT

If you have full (level 8) access to your FreeAgent account and if a NatWest, Royal Bank of Scotland or Ulster Bank business current account is your primary bank account in FreeAgent, then you can add or edit the contact's bank details in the ‘Payment bank account details’ section. You can then make bill payments to your supplier using Payit™.
Once you’ve made all the necessary changes, select ‘Save’ to complete the process.
