There are three ways to use GoCardless:
GoCardless is for anyone who wants to take payments directly from the bank account of customers in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, the Eurozone, Sweden, Denmark and Canada. It’s particularly suitable for B2B (business-to-business) and recurring payments.
Our easy-to-use dashboards and powerful API make GoCardless a simple platform for everyone from innovative start-ups to multi-national corporations.
GoCardless works with more than 30,000 businesses from accountants and gyms, to energy companies and SaaS organisations processing A$7bn of payments globally.

Once an authorisation (Direct Debit Request) is in place, your customers no longer need to action future payments saving them time and hassle.
