Q: What is DebiCheck?


A: DebiCheck is a specific type of debit order. A DebiCheck debit order is one that you confirm, electronically, on a one-off basis, when you sign up for Maverick Insider. Its purpose is for you to confirm the details of the debit order with your bank before it is processed to your bank account. This ensures that you are in control of and aware of debit orders being processed to your bank account and we have peace of mind that you know what you’ve signed up for.

A: We may need to send your debit order verification to your phone. Your number won’t be used or sold for another purpose and will be maintained in line with our Privacy Policy


Q: Why do I need to supply my ID or passport number?

A: Linking your ID or passport number to your bank account is another way that we’re making the debit order process as safe as possible.
