A £500 transaction saves you 48% compared to Stripe
Accepting a £500 payment with Stripe from a standard UK card will cost you £7.70. However, with GoCardless, that transaction costs just £4.00 on our Standard Plan (excluding VAT).
We've processed around 17,000 direct bank payments in two years and not had a single payment failure, which is absolutely fantastic. That compares with card payments, where we get a lot of failures.
