They don't have to be recurring payments on the same date each month .

Just collect each payment as a one off payment when you done the windows . Mike

sounds like a nightmare to me.over 100 customers on gcl?what happens when you go on holiday for a couple of weeks?or off due to injury/health?

a few years ago i badly sprained my ankle playing football and was on crutches for over 3 weeks.so best part of a month off.what would you do in this instance?

id also hate to have to mess around chopping and changing the order of over 100 customers because they ve already paid when behind with work for whatever reason.
price higher/work harder!

Its simple to make changes check it out ;)
you can take payments and set payments easily this IMO is the way forward with out a doubt.

Like I said Daz, I've never not finished the month.
If it was looking like that may not happen I'd address it as and when.
It's not chopping & changing bud.
All of my customers pay on 1st of the month-regardless when their clean is.
Last month, I finished on 31st. Those that got cleaned on that day, paid the following day for a clean that might not have been carried out for another 30 days.

This isn't the only way though.
You can be authorised then once you've cleaned, take payment that night.
Just log in to the dashboard and click 'take payment' enter amount and job done.
Even easier (from what I've heard) on cleaner planner.

It really is good bud.
And it's cheap. Not free, like BACS, but cheap. And YOU are in control, not the customer.

It's just the internet. Try not to worry.

GoCardless is brilliant. Been using it for a while now.

All my payment options are here:
