Farmers can register for Single Farm Payment preview

Farmers can sign up to view payments online – before they go into the bank.

Scottish farmers can get early access to payment information – up to a week before it goes into their bank – by registering online.

With payments under the Single Farm Payment scheme due to start on December 1, there’s still time to sign up to view payment information online.

Claimants will be able to view payment information online, up to seven days in advance of it going into their bank accounts. Scottish Beef Calf Scheme claimants will be able to view their payments online from next year and it will be rolled out to all schemes in the near future.
