How Can My Business Set Up Direct Debit Services?

The best way for your business to accept direct debit payments from customers is via the Payleadr online portal. Just like personal banking, the easiest way to manage your finances and plan your payments is online.

Luckily, there are many new ways for businesses to customise their direct debits online. The advantage of these services is that they give your business complete control.

It’s important that your business and your customers can work together to create a seamless payment process that suits both your needs.

To find this level of freedom and flexibility, choose to work with Payleadr. We specialise in dynamic direct debit solutions – allowing you to choose the way you accept recurring payments from your clients.

What is the difference between a direct debit and an automatic payment?

There’s a difference between automatic payments and direct debits. It’s important for businesses to understand this distinction so they can find the right solutions for their customers.

A direct debit is a recurring payment that’s requested and approved by the customer and managed by the business. This means the amount and the frequency of the payment can vary.

An automatic payment is created, controlled and managed solely by the customer – meaning that a business is not given the ability to alter or change the payment.

The advantage of a direct debit is that the business and the customer can work together to find the optimal repayment process.

Working with an online direct debit service like Payleadr gives both parties access to an intuitive online portal. This allows payments can evolve over time to meet the needs of both parties.

It’s the perfect modern solution for today’s busy, digital-first businesses and their customers!
