Payments. But without the Hassle.

GoCardless collects direct bank payments. Meaning no card fees. And with all that wasted admin time cut away, the savings really stack up.

FAQs
For every commission you earn, there’s a 30-day validation period, after which you’ll be paid out in the next payment run. So any commission you earn should be paid out within 14-60 days of the activation occurring. See T&Cs for more details.
There are three things businesses do on their dashboard that help qualify them as “active users”:
Getting a customer to set up a bank debit mandate (which allows that business to automate payment collection from that customer).
Collecting a direct debit or instant bank payment.
Any business that signs up and then completes any combination of payment actions. Once they total six payment actions, we classify them as an “active” user of GoCardless. We use this to qualify your commission.
Once you have your unique tracking link, you can share it in any way you like with your customers. You can send it via email, SMS, WhatsApp, share on your social channels, or even create a QR code for them to scan.
Anyone can be an ambassador. A good candidate for our programme is any individual or business who has relevant contacts in their network. No need to be a GoCardless customer yourself. You could have clients, members or followers who would benefit from collecting their payments with GoCardless.
We’ll process your review within a week, and if successful, we’ll get in touch with the details to set up your introductory call.
