Simplify recurring payments.

Overview

GoCardless is a fintech company that provides an online payment service for businesses and organizations. Its platform enables businesses to collect recurring payments from their customers or clients via direct debit, eliminating the need for manual payment processing and reducing the risk of payment failures.

The company was founded in 2011 in the UK and has since expanded to other markets, including Europe, the US, and Australia. It serves a variety of industries, including subscriptions, services, non-profits, and SMEs.

GoCardless’ platform is designed to be user-friendly and customizable, with features such as payment pages, branded emails, and payment notifications. The platform integrates with popular accounting software, CRMs, and e-commerce platforms, making it easy for businesses to manage their payments and automate their workflows.

One of the key benefits of using GoCardless is its low transaction fees, which are often lower than those charged by credit card processors. This can help businesses save money and improve their cash flow.

In addition to its payment services, GoCardless also provides resources and tools to help businesses manage their payments and optimize their revenue streams. These include webinars, guides, and analytics tools.
