What's new at GoDutch

This update focused on two things: helping new businesses get through the sign-up process faster, and reducing manual work once you’re up and running. Here’s what has been released and what is being rolled out now.

Sign your UBO declaration during sign-up

When opening a business account, you are legally required to declare who the legal owners of your company are. Until now, you had to first request an official extract from the Chamber of Commerce before you could complete your application. We now generate this declaration automatically based on the details you enter during sign-up. You check it, sign it digitally, and carry on — no external documents needed.

Remind a cardholder to submit a receipt

With GoDutch, you can issue business payment cards to employees and track their spending. Has a team member not yet submitted a receipt for a card payment? Send them a reminder directly from the app. One tap, and the cardholder automatically receives an email to submit the receipt.

Getting started checklist on your dashboard

After opening your account, GoDutch shows a short checklist on your dashboard to help you get going quickly — such as topping up your balance, issuing a card or linking an expense category. Each task takes less than a minute and disappears once completed. It helps you quickly get value from the product, without having to work out where to begin.

Clearer bookkeeping exports

With GoDutch, you export your transactions for your accountant or bookkeeping software. Exports now bundle each transaction together with the associated receipt in one clear file. That way your accountant has everything in one place, and there’s no more downloading transactions and receipts separately, or manually matching them up.

Pay multiple invoices at once

From now on, process your outstanding invoices in one go. Select the payments you want to make, review them in the summary screen and confirm the whole batch with a single authorisation. No separate approval per invoice anymore.
Handy for anyone who pays multiple suppliers every week: you choose which invoices to include, check the amounts and recipients, and pay everything at once. After authorisation, you can see the status of each payment straight away. You’ll find it in Bill Pay under your outstanding payments.

Opening a business account with GoDutch is now twice as fast. The application process has been reduced from 12 to 6 steps, works for every type of business — from sole trader to private limited company — and you can always see where you are and what’s coming next. You upload and sign UBO declarations fully online, without a printer or scanner.

• Find your business immediately via the search function, no manual entry.

• Stopped? Your progress is automatically saved.

• Multiple businesses? Open accounts for all of them in a few steps.

• From 12 to 6 steps — the same account, half the work.

Available for all new applications and for existing customers opening a second or subsequent account.

You can now export your account data as a CAMT.053 file: the standard format that banks and accounting packages in Europe use for statements. You upload the file into your accounting software, and the reconciliation runs automatically. No manual entry, no errors from retyping.

Payment tasks

Until now, paying a business invoice meant logging into your bank, looking up supplier details and entering everything manually. One wrong digit and the payment fails, or worse, ends up in the wrong place.

Bill Pay puts an end to that. Upload an invoice and GoDutch reads it: supplier name, amount, IBAN. The payment is ready for you. You check it, you confirm it, done.

Your own invoice inbox, included.

Every GoDutch account gets its own email address. Send your invoices there, or give it to your suppliers so they can submit them directly. Invoices come in, we read them, the payment is ready.

Getting started

1. Log in to GoDutch and open Bill Pay in the menu bar

2. Upload the invoice you want to pay

3. GoDutch reads the invoice and prepares the payment automatically

4. Review and pay with one click

No manual entry. No hassle. Invoices paid.

With your GoDutch card, you can now keep track of your whole team's expenses in one place. Every payment — yours or a team member's — comes in automatically and is assigned a category straight away. Is something not right? One click to change it.

• Every outgoing transaction is automatically categorised. Adjust the category where needed.

• Upload receipts directly from the push notification, immediately after you've paid.

• Receipts are automatically linked to the corresponding transaction (available in beta).

• Send receipts and invoices to your personal receipt inbox in GoDutch, or share the email address with your accountant.

No stacks of receipts. No surprises at the end of the month.
