GoCardless - Window Cleaner in Dunfermline and Fife

Gocardless.com is a start-up company that allows professional window cleaning services to set up recurring payments with their bank account. It's free for the customer and easy for businesses to manage the process. 

GoCardless offers a number of options: one where you can sign up for an automatic payment plan through your bank account (which takes about three days). There are no fees associated with using GoCardless, but it does charge a small transaction fee per invoice paid by this method which is incurred by the vendor. The service is fully insured and offers the same protection as any other direct debit.

Another option with the service is to sign up for a regular subscription payment where the money is debited on a regular basis. Some professional window cleaners use this method to collect regular payments but due to the weather in the UK, this can mean cleaning due dates can be missed and I prefer to use a process that collects payment after the service is carried out.

A new instant payment service has been launched which gives an instant payment option, the signup process is the same however to collect instant payments a direct link is sent to the customer to authorize the payment prior to collection. This method is effective when collecting payment for things like cleaning gutters, solar panels cleaning, and other external cleaning jobs where instead of a regular payment it is a one-off charge for service.

Due to the simple process to sign up, process payments, and the safeguards in place Gocardless is quickly becoming a favored method with small businesses where they require regular payments. As Window Cleaner's in Dunfermline we initially started to use GoCardless back in 2020 as a response to the Covid-19 pandemic as a way to ensure the safety of our customers by introducing contactless payments.
