FAQ
How does my payment get processed?
When you pay a bill via Sniip, you authorise Sniip to receive funds from your nominated payment method. The bill amount will be held by us on trust for the specific purpose of paying your bill. Sniip will then process your bill payment to your biller on the day those funds are received.
Why can’t I make a payment to another credit facility using my credit card?
Unfortunately, we are restricted from allowing payments to certain billers using credit facilities, as determined by BPAY and our banking partners.
This means, you aren’t able to pay credit facilities with a credit card or a debit card, but you can pay from a bank account. Paying from a bank account is completely free in the Sniip app, and this way you are able to keep using Sniip to store and organise all your bills and invoices.
If you have any questions, please email Sniip Support Squad or call (07) 3268 7710 for more information.

Plus, it’s the easiest and quickest way to pay your bill (and earn full points).
You can explore our Amex x Sniip hub, here or speak with our Amex x Sniip representative Jennifer by calling (07) 3268 7710.
How do I know how many points I’ll earn on my transaction and what my processing fee (tier) will be?
Great question! We’ve built a points calculator just for you, superstar! You can explore the points calculator, here.
I thought the Amex rate was 1.5%, what happened?
Sniip was a consumer app, offering a consumer rate. We appreciate there was growing demand for business payments with Sniip and to continue to offer this service, we were required by Amex to offer a business rate.
We’ve worked really hard to keep our rate as low as possible to accommodate business payments and the rate is reflective of what we’re being charged to process the payment – not a margin increase for Sniip!
However, the good news is, our after tax rate on all our business tiers are below 1.5%!
Do I earn points on the processing fee?
Absolutely! You earn full points (even at the ATO) on the transaction amount and the processing fee.
What if you determine my payment to be business, but it’s personal?
All rates are clearly displayed before you make a payment and you can always clarify with us before you process the payment.
The processing fee for personal payments using a personal card is 1.5%, excluding American Express personal cards. The rate for personal American Express cards is 1.29%.
Does Sniip have a transaction limit?
Sniip has no transaction limit. There are however, minimum and maximum payment amounts determined by each biller.
If you are making a large payment and are getting a declined message even though you believe you have the funds available to make the payment, we would suggest contacting your financial institution.
If your financial institution identifies a large transaction that seems out of the ordinary, it may be stopped or flagged as fraudulent. Once you contact your bank and explain that you are making a transaction via Sniip they should enable the transaction. If you have any questions or wish to discuss your transaction, please contact the Sniip Support Squad or call (07) 3268 7710.
How do I know what tier my payment falls under?
Good question! Our business payment tiers are below.
You can explore more about tiered pricing, here.
Tier (single payment amount) | Rate (inc GST) | Rate % (+ GST) | **After Tax Rate |
$0 – $99,999 | 2.19% | 1.99% | 1.49% |
$100,000 – $299,999 | 2.15% | 1.95% | 1.46% |
$300,000 – $499,999 | 2.09% | 1.90% | 1.43% |
$500,000 – $999,999 | 2.04% | 1.85% | 1.39% |
$1,000,000+ | 1.93% | 1.75% | 1.31% |
If I’m a sole trader, will I be charged the business, or the personal rate if I pay the ATO?
If you’re making a personal payment to the ATO on a personal card, you’ll be charged at the personal rate. Payments to the ATO, including superannuation, are charged at the business rate when using any American Express card.
If you have an ABN, you may be classified as a business. If you’re making a business payment with a personal American Express card, you may be charged at the business rate.
The good news is, all rates are clearly shown before you make the payment and you can always clarify with us before you process the payment.
What is Sniip's criteria for determining what is business and personal payments?
Great question! It comes down to the payment you’re making and the card you’re using.
If you’re making a personal payment, on a personal card, you’ll be charged the personal rate.
If you’re making a business payment, on a business/corporate card, you’ll be charged the applicable business rate.
If you’re flagged as making a business payment on a personal card, you may be asked to supply a copy of your invoice and your transaction will be reviewed.
The good news is, all rates are clearly shown before you make the payment and you can always clarify with us before you process the payment.
If you have any questions, please call (07) 3268 7710 or email customercare@sniip.com.
Why has the business processing fee increased?
Up until October 15, 2022, Sniip was a consumer app with a consumer rate for American Express payments.
As you can appreciate, the rate we were charging was well below existing rates for business payments made using an American Express.
American Express identified that business payments were being made through our consumer app. We had the option of discontinuing our service for business users, or adopting the market processing rate for Amex partners facilitating business payments.
Notwithstanding that, we remain committed to being the most competitive in our pricing and will ensure we are adhering to that commitment.
We (and our users) know we have the best product and we hope you’ll continue to enjoy the many benefit of using Sniip too!
I always use a personal Amex card for business expenses. Can I just use my business Mastercard instead now? What’s the fee?
Absolutely! The processing fee for all Visa/Mastercards is 1.5%.
Can I pay make SME payments now, pay to BSB + Account Number?
We’re working on it as you read this. Launch 2023! Promise.
