Mimo makes it easy to handle manual or one-time payments, even if an invoice hasn’t been imported from your accounting software. This is especially useful for things like pro-forma invoices, PAYE, VAT, or expense payments.
How to create a manual payment
You can set up a manual payment in a few different ways:
Forward invoices → Send invoices to your unique Mimo email address (visible in the platform). Drafts will be created automatically and pre-filled with details.
Enter details manually → Create a payment without a bill by filling in the details yourself.
Upload a bill → Drag and drop or upload a file (PDF, PNG, WEBP, JPG) and Mimo will turn it into a draft.
Next steps
Once your draft is ready, Mimo will guide you through the payment flow. You’ll be able to choose the funding option (Wallet, Top-up & Pay, or Flex), set a payment date, and apply approval workflows if needed.
If it’s the first time you’re paying a new recipient, you’ll just need to verify their bank details with a quick two-step authentication.
Scheduled payments will appear under Pending until they’re sent, while payments made right away will move to Paid once complete.
