Local competitors offer both Paypal and GoCardlessAn error occurred while saving the comment Steve McCarthy commentedDefinetly in the UK GoCardless is an excellent payment method and much preferred by small organisations because the cost in only 1% per transaction maxed at £2
I am looking at a memb. mgt. solution for another organisation and the final decision was against WA because no direct debit support
Reading postings relating to direct debits I am getting the impression WA people do not understand what they are. They enable direct payments from the customer's bank account direct to the 'supplier's' bank account.
All utility and telecom companies use them as the preferred payment method so they are well understood by all the population. The payments are very well protected under tight regulations.
GoCardless is the market leader in providing an integrated easy to use system to allow the customer to securely set up the service without providing their bank account details to the supplier, which was the normal situation.
They only charge 1% which makes it a no brainer as the payment solution of choice for many organisations like clubs and other memb. orgs.
The integration cannot be that difficult because I know of 2 very small WA competitors who have done it easily. The info from GoCardless about their API is excellent.
