Authorization to Receive Payment

Specify permission to collect one payment. Keep authority to collect separate from a receipt confirming payment actually occurred.

Revised October 11, 2026 · Fictional examples · English / Arabic

A drafting aid, not a verified record or guaranteed form. Check the facts, your authority, and the recipient’s requirements before sending.

Before you begin

  • State amount, currency, and payer
  • Limit the authority to the named transaction
  • Ask the payer how identity and receipt will be verified. Do not authorize bank-account access through this letter.
