richard - thats right, its really easy you can send them the form, it asks for their bank details, you are informed when they have replied, and then we debit account 3-5 days AFTER a clean, its great for late payers, and lots of others liek it, its a payment we will be pushing extensively over the coming months.

it looks perfect.

do you need a merchant account for it?

i guess even if you dont you get charged the 1% by them, and then another charge by you bank.

still great tho.  once its set up you can charge people for extra jobs, pay rises are easy....  and its in your control.

no richard, works off ANY bank account. It does put you in control an its great for those good customers that do generally and honestly forget to make payment, this way they don't have to remember!

How many have you got on gocardless so far? It looks good on your website. My worry is that I would just he adding another job to my list of things to do.

I've got: cash, cheques, bacs, standing orders, direct card payments, recurring card payments, pay via post, pay at the door, pay by link. If I could get EVERYONE onto the same method I'd be laughing.

Hi

I have just signed up for cardsave how do you do the recurring payments with out the 3 digit security code ?

Plus do you get them to sign some thing to say they are happy for you to take future payments ?

I have the virtual terminal, pay by link & paypage

Thanks Paul

I can log in to cardsave, it shows me the history of all payments processed. I click on the one I want to recur and bish bosh its done.

I ask them to send me a request for recurring card payments either by post or email.

i think you are making it difficult for yourself.

we only accept SOs and cheques at a push, and then cardsave payments for one off jobs or first cleans.

for me Go cardless will replace SOs as the preferred option.

you need to move your customers over to 2 methods i would say.  you will loose a couple, but it will save you time and money in the future by simplifying your business, and free up your time to expand some more (or just finish work earlier!) ;-)

Yep i just logged in to my test system and i see it but it still asks for the CV2 is the 3 digit security code not needed for the transaction to be successful    

Thanks for answering my question about permission i just wasn't sure if they needed to sign a permission slip but is makes sense that a email or letter will be enough.

Thanks Paul

Do you have a bit that says 'transaction by cross reference'?

I see your point. I can't really cut ANY of those methods though. Just worried about adding another, although I think direct debits would probably be my preference really.

[PAUL ERITH]

Yeah just done a cross ref test and it goes through as successful without the cv2 code but when ever i make a payment by phone i have to give them my cv2 code.

I think once it goes live i will ring them and see what the say i don't want to be getting done for doing the wrong thing.

Thanks Paul

It is not the best laid out website I've ever seen but once you start using it for proper it ain't so bad.

Transaction by cross reference and scheduled transactions is what you want.
