Record Payments

Report payments collected from debtors.

Payment Flow

When recording a payment, specify who received it and how to allocate between creditor and your commission. Debitura handles revenue share calculations automatically.

PlatformPayment through DebituraAutomatically marked paid

When the debtor pays the creditor directly, you must indicate whether the creditor has settled your commission. Update via the Portal when they do.

Allocation Rules

Payouts must sum to the payment amount (within rounding tolerance). The system validates this before accepting the payment.

Closing with Payment

Set closeCase: true on the final payment to close automatically. The system sets the close code based on total recovered:

  • Paid — if total payments ≥ outstanding amount
  • PartiallyPaid — if total payments < outstanding amount

You cannot close as Paid without sufficient payment recorded.
