Collect a joining fee and setup a Direct Debit mandate in one smooth flow.
Direct Debit is great for gyms and clubs to collect recurring membership fees, but it takes too long to process an upfront joining fee. Which leaves them relying on fee-heavy card payments.
With Instant Bank Pay, your users can offer a simple payment flow that takes an instantly-authorised, one-off payment. Either standalone, or together with a Direct Debit mandate setup.
Smooth sign up process for new members
No need to split payments across cards and Direct Debit. With Instant Bank Pay, GoCardless can now collect instant payments too.
Easily sell extra products or classes
Are your users selling add-ons? Instant Bank Pay lets them collect payment instantly, without having to rely on expensive cards.
Cheaper than card payments
The fees associated with card payments can be up to 238% more than Instant Bank Pay, depending on the provider.
Faster payouts than card payments
Completed payments take an average of 1.51 days from the payment being created, to getting paid out to the merchant. Typical card payments take up to 3 days.
See how it works. Right here, right now.
Bank transfers are slow and admin-heavy. Cards are expensive and failure-prone.
