Payments are made by direct (preauthorised) debit. On the 28th of the month preceding the relevant month of childcare, Bink collects the amount from your account. The invoice amount is to be paid before the 1st of the relevant month of childcare. You will receive a monthly invoice either per email or mail. Every year in February, you will receive an annual statement. The tax authorities pay the childcare allowance for the following month on the 20th of the month.
