Businesses that made the switch to Direct Debit

FundTap saves 1 day a week on admin

100% of customers make repayments to FundTap via GoCardless, which means they consistently get paid on time while saving a significant amount of financial admin.

“The integration between GoCardless and Xero is amazing and it’s critical to ensuring we get paid on time, so we always have cash for our clients. When an invoice is created in Xero a future payment is automatically created in GoCardless." Matt Peacey, Founder and CEO, FundTap.

Future Fulfilment collects two-thirds of payments via GoCardless

“Currently, two-thirds of customers use GoCardless, which is just incredible for our cash flow. Automated billing and payments have really reduced the finance team’s workload around debt collection. In fact, GoCardless has cut out a day a week that used to be spent chasing late payments.” Eddie Nedelko, CFO, Future Fulfilment.
